s3server is a simple static web server for Amazon S3 compatible object storage systems. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install s3server on a NetBSD system.
Before you start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
$ pkgin install go
$ git clone https://github.com/jessfraz/s3server.git
$ cd s3server
$ make build
$ make install
$ s3server --help
The help menu of s3server should now be displayed.
After installation, you can start s3server by running the following command:
$ s3server --addr=:8080 --region=us-east-1 --endpoint=http://localhost:9000 --accesskey=ACCESSKEY --secretkey=SECRETKEY --bucket=mybucket
Replace ACCESSKEY and SECRETKEY with the access key and secret key of your S3-compatible object storage system, and mybucket with the name of your bucket.
The command above starts s3server on port 8080 and configures it to communicate with an S3-compatible object storage system located at localhost:9000 with region us-east-1.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install s3server on a NetBSD system, and how to use it to serve static content from an S3-compatible object storage system.
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!
