Minio is an open source object storage server that is compatible with Amazon S3 cloud storage service. It is easy to install and can be used to store, backup and share data across multiple devices. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Minio on MXLinux Latest.
Before installing Minio, you need to make sure that your system meets the following requirements:
First, we need to install the dependencies required to run Minio. Run the following command to install the necessary packages:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y curl gcc
Once the dependencies are installed, we can proceed with the installation of Minio. Use the following commands to download and install Minio:
curl https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/linux-amd64/minio --output minio
chmod +x minio
sudo mv minio /usr/local/bin/
Now that Minio is installed successfully, we need to start the service. Run the following command to start the Minio service:
minio server /data
This command will start the Minio server and create a default S3 bucket named mybucket under the /data directory. You can access the Minio server by visiting http://localhost:9000 in your web browser.
By default, Minio uses the /data directory to store data. You can change the default storage path by modifying the MINIO_DATA_DIR environment variable. Set the MINIO_ACCESS_KEY and MINIO_SECRET_KEY environment variables for added security.
export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<your-access-key>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<your-secret-key>
export MINIO_DATA_DIR=/path/to/your/folder
In this tutorial, we have shown how to install Minio on MXLinux Latest. Minio is a powerful and easy to use object storage server that can be used to store, backup and share data across multiple devices. You can now use Minio to store and manage your data.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
