# Minio NAS Gateway [![Slack](https://slack.minio.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.minio.io) Minio Gateway adds Amazon S3 compatibility to NAS storage. You may run multiple minio instances on the same shared NAS volume as a distributed object gateway. ## Run Minio Gateway for NAS Storage ### Using Docker Please ensure to replace `/shared/nasvol` with actual mount path. ``` docker run -p 9000:9000 --name nas-s3 \ -e "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=minio" \ -e "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=minio123" \ -v /shared/nasvol:/container/vol \ minio/minio gateway nas /container/vol ``` ### Using Binary ``` export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=minio export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=minio123 minio gateway nas /shared/nasvol ``` ## Test using Minio Browser Minio Gateway comes with an embedded web based object browser. Point your web browser to http://127.0.0.1:9000 to ensure that your server has started successfully. ![Screenshot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/minio/master/docs/screenshots/minio-browser-gateway.png) ## Test using Minio Client `mc` `mc` provides a modern alternative to UNIX commands such as ls, cat, cp, mirror, diff etc. It supports filesystems and Amazon S3 compatible cloud storage services. ### Configure `mc` ``` mc config host add mynas http://gateway-ip:9000 access_key secret_key ``` ### List buckets on nas ``` mc ls mynas [2017-02-22 01:50:43 PST] 0B ferenginar/ [2017-02-26 21:43:51 PST] 0B my-bucket/ [2017-02-26 22:10:11 PST] 0B test-bucket1/ ``` ## Explore Further - [`mc` command-line interface](https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-client-quickstart-guide) - [`aws` command-line interface](https://docs.minio.io/docs/aws-cli-with-minio) - [`minio-go` Go SDK](https://docs.minio.io/docs/golang-client-quickstart-guide)
