How to Install Minio on Manjaro

Minio is an object storage server that is available for download from https://minio.io/. In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of installing Minio on Manjaro.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

• Manjaro installed on your computer
• sudo access

Installation Steps

1. Open a terminal window on your Manjaro machine.

2. Type the following command to download the Minio binary:

   wget https://dl.minio.io/server/minio/release/linux-amd64/minio
   

3. Next, we need to apply executable permissions to the Minio binary:

   chmod +x minio
   

4. After that, create a new directory for your data and configuration files:

   mkdir /data
   

5. Navigate to the directory that contains the Minio binary:

   cd /path/to/minio/directory
   

6. Finally, start Minio with the following command. Replace ACCESS_KEY and SECRET_KEY with your desired access and secret keys.

   ./minio server /data --console-address ":9001" --access-key ACCESS_KEY --secret-key SECRET_KEY
   

   This will start the Minio server and create a new bucket with the default name of mybucket.

7. You can now access the Minio console by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:9001. You will need to enter your access and secret keys to log in.

Conclusion

You have successfully installed Minio and created a new bucket on Manjaro. You can now use Minio's object storage capabilities 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!
