Minio Docker Quickstart Guide ![Gitter](https://badges.gitter.im/Join%20Chat.svg)
1. Test Minio on Docker.
Minio generates new access and secret keys each time you run this command. Container state is lost after you end this session. This mode is only intended for testing purpose.
docker run -p 9000:9000 minio/minio server /export
2. Run Minio Standalone on Docker.
Minio container requires a persistent volume to store configuration and application data. Following command maps local persistent directories from the host OS to virtual config ~/.minio
and export /export
directories.
docker run -p 9000:9000 --name minio1 \
-v /mnt/export/minio1:/export \
-v /mnt/config/minio1:/root/.minio \
minio/minio server /export
3. Run Minio Standalone on Docker with Custom Access and Secret Keys
To override Minio's auto-generated keys, you may pass secret and access keys explicitly as environment variables. Minio server also allows regular strings as access and secret keys.
docker run -p 9000:9000 --name minio1 \
-e "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE" \
-e "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY" \
-v /mnt/export/minio1:/export \
-v /mnt/config/minio1:/root/.minio \
minio/minio server /export
4. Test Distributed Minio on Docker
Currently Minio distributed version is under testing. We do not recommend using it in production.
This example shows how to run 4 node Minio cluster inside different docker containers using docker-compose. Please download docker-compose.yml to your current working directory, docker-compose pulls the Minio Docker image with label edge
.
Run docker-compose
docker-compose pull
docker-compose up
Each instance is accessible on the host at ports 9001 through 9004, proceed to access the Web browser at http://localhost:9001/
