If the `minio_address` variable is specified, it will be passed with the
`--address` argument to `minio server`. This allows controlling the
socket the server binds to and listens on.
The `minio_browser_redirect_url` can be specified to populate the
similarly-named environment variable, which configures how MinIO serves
the web UI.
The `minio_domain` variable sets the `MINIO_DOMAIN` environment
variable, which enables DNS names (subdomains) for buckets, i.e.
`{bucket_name}.{MINIO_DOMAIN}`.
MinIO exposes metrics in Prometheus exposition format. By default, it
requires an authentication token to access the metrics, but I was unable
to get this to work. Fortunately, it can be configured to allow
anonymous access to the metrics, which is fine, in my opinion.
[MinIO][0] is an S3-compatible object storage server. It is designed to
provide storage for cloud-native applications for on-premises
deployments.
MinIO has not been packaged for Fedora (yet?). As such, the best way to
deploy it is usining its official container image. Here, we are using
`podman-systemd-generator` (Quadlet) to generate a systemd service
unit to manage the container process.
