<![CDATA[Configuring Minio for several use cases]]>I noticed that the minio config is pretty static in the Cloudron package.

  • This could be improved by linking the start.sh to /app/data (so we can make changes)
  • Several example configs could be provided which can be swapped out for various use cases (only one install needed)
  • A new config UI could be adapted from OpenVPN
  • It could be used to front backups to S3 providers in gateway mode (this is what I'd like to do now + a super cool hack that I'm working on 😸 )
  • Disk caching is possible using this method
  • Integrates with Rclone
  • Encrypt it with certs

Ideally, all this should come from the upstream app (given that it already has a UI). Maybe we can open up a feature request there? I am not sure why their admin ui is so "ignored".

The UI is just a browser, and not a configuration system ;-/

We just need to manage our own CLI configs.

I pushed changes to allow custom config in new minio release.

Thank you!

So, looks like if we fix the package to source /app/data/env.sh , that's a good start. And then we need the server/gateway CLI configurable as well.
