The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. The AMQP configuration is located in the `amqp` key under the `notify` top-level key. Create a configuration key-value pair here for your AMQP instance. The key is a name for your AMQP endpoint, and the value is a collection of key-value parameters described in the table below.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|:---|:---|:---|
| `enable` | _bool_ | (Required) Is this server endpoint configuration active/enabled? |
| `url` | _string_ | (Required) AMQP server endpoint, e.g. `amqp://myuser:mypassword@localhost:5672` |
| `exchange` | _string_ | Name of the exchange. |
| `routingKey` | _string_ | Routing key for publishing. |
| `exchangeType` | _string_ | Kind of exchange. |
| `deliveryMode` | _uint8_ | Delivery mode for publishing. 0 or 1 - transient; 2 - persistent. |
| `mandatory` | _bool_ | Publishing related bool. |
| `immediate` | _bool_ | Publishing related bool. |
| `durable` | _bool_ | Exchange declaration related bool. |
| `internal` | _bool_ | Exchange declaration related bool. |
| `noWait` | _bool_ | Exchange declaration related bool. |
| `autoDeleted` | _bool_ | Exchange declaration related bool. |
An example configuration for RabbitMQ is shown below:
After updating the configuration file, restart the Minio server to put the changes into effect. The server will print a line like `SQS ARNs: arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:amqp` at start-up if there were no errors.
Minio supports all the exchanges available in [RabbitMQ](https://www.rabbitmq.com/). For this setup, we are using ``fanout`` exchange.
Note that, you can add as many AMQP server endpoint configurations as needed by providing an identifier (like "1" in the example above) for the AMQP instance and an object of per-server configuration parameters.
### Step 2: Enable bucket notification using Minio client
We will enable bucket event notification to trigger whenever a JPEG image is uploaded or deleted ``images`` bucket on ``myminio`` server. Here ARN value is ``arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:amqp``. To understand more about ARN please follow [AWS ARN](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html) documentation.
The python program below waits on the queue exchange ``bucketevents`` and prints event notifications on the console. We use [Pika Python Client](https://www.rabbitmq.com/tutorials/tutorial-three-python.html) library to do this.
Install Elasticsearch 2.4 from [here](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/elasticsearch-2-4-0).
## Recipe steps
### Step 1: Add Elasticsearch endpoint to Minio
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. Update the Elasticsearch configuration block in ``config.json`` as follows:
Restart Minio server to reflect config changes. ``bucketevents`` is the index used by Elasticsearch.
### Step 2: Enable bucket notification using Minio client
We will enable bucket event notification to trigger whenever a JPEG image is uploaded or deleted from ``images`` bucket on ``myminio`` server. Here ARN value is ``arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:elasticsearch``. To understand more about ARN please follow [AWS ARN](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html) documentation.

mc events add myminio/images arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:elasticsearch --suffix .jpg
Install [Redis](http://redis.io/download) server. For illustrative purposes, we have set the database password as "yoursecret".
This notification target supports two formats: _namespace_ and _access_.
When the _namespace_ format is used, Minio synchronizes objects in the bucket with entries in a hash. For each entry, the key is formatted as "bucketName/objectName" for an object that exists in the bucket, and the value is the JSON-encoded event data about the operation that created/replaced the object in Minio. When objects are updated or deleted, the corresponding entry int he hash is updated or deleted respectively.
When the _access_ format is used, Minio appends events to a list using [RPUSH](https://redis.io/commands/rpush). Each item in the list is a JSON encoded list with two items, where the first item is a timestamp string, and second item is a JSON object containing evnet data about the operation that happened in the bucket. No entries appended to the list are updated or deleted by Minio in this format.
The steps below show how to use this notification target in `namespace` and `access` format.
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. The Redis configuration is located in the `redis` key under the `notify` top-level key. Create a configuration key-value pair here for your Redis instance. The key is a name for your Redis endpoint, and the value is a collection of key-value parameters described in the table below.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|:---|:---|:---|
| `enable` | _bool_ | (Required) Is this server endpoint configuration active/enabled? |
| `format` | _string_ | (Required) Either `namespace` or `access`. |
| `address` | _string_ | (Required) The Redis server's address. For example: `localhost:6379`. |
| `key` | _string_ | (Required) The name of the redis key under which events are stored. A hash is used in case of `namespace` format and a list in case of `access` format.|
After updating the configuration file, restart the Minio server to put the changes into effect. The server will print a line like `SQS ARNs: arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:redis` at start-up if there were no errors.
Note that, you can add as many Redis server endpoint configurations as needed by providing an identifier (like "1" in the example above) for the Redis instance and an object of per-server configuration parameters.
We will now enable bucket event notifications on a bucket named `images`. Whenever a JPEG image is created/overwritten, a new key is added or an existing key is updated in the Redis hash configured above. When an existing object is deleted, the corresponding key is deleted from the Redis hash. Thus, the rows in the Redis hash, reflect the `.jpg` objects in the `images` bucket.
To configure this bucket notification, we need the ARN printed by Minio in the previous step. Additional information about ARN is available [here](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html).
With the `mc` tool, the configuration is very simple to add. Let us say that the Minio server is aliased as `myminio` in our mc configuration. Execute the following:
Start the `redis-cli` Redis client program to inspect the contents in Redis. Run the `monitor` Redis command. This prints each operation performed on Redis as it occurs.
Here we see that Minio performed `HSET` on `minio_events` key.
In case, `access` format was used, then `minio_events` would be a list, and the Minio server would have performed an `RPUSH` to append to the list. A consumer of this list would ideally use `BLPOP` to remove list items from the left-end of the list.
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. Update the NATS configuration block in ``config.json`` as follows:
Restart Minio server to reflect config changes. ``bucketevents`` is the subject used by NATS in this example.
### Step 2: Enable bucket notification using Minio client
We will enable bucket event notification to trigger whenever a JPEG image is uploaded or deleted from ``images`` bucket on ``myminio`` server. Here ARN value is ``arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:nats``. To understand more about ARN please follow [AWS ARN](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html) documentation.

Install [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org/) database server. For illustrative purposes, we have set the "postgres" user password as `password` and created a database called `minio_events` to store the events.
This notification target supports two formats: _namespace_ and _access_.
When the _namespace_ format is used, Minio synchronizes objects in the bucket with rows in the table. It creates rows with two columns: key and value. The key is the bucket and object name of an object that exists in Minio. The value is JSON encoded event data about the operation that created/replaced the object in Minio. When objects are updated or deleted, the corresponding row from this table is updated or deleted respectively.
When the _access_ format is used, Minio appends events to a table. It creates rows with two columns: event_time and event_data. The event_time is the time at which the event occurred in the Minio server. The event_data is the JSON encoded event data about the operation on an object. No rows are deleted or modified in this format.
The steps below show how to use this notification target in `namespace` format. The other format is very similar and is omitted for brevity.
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. The PostgreSQL configuration is located in the `postgresql` key under the `notify` top-level key. Create a configuration key-value pair here for your PostgreSQL instance. The key is a name for your PostgreSQL endpoint, and the value is a collection of key-value parameters described in the table below.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|:---|:---|:---|
| `enable` | _bool_ | (Required) Is this server endpoint configuration active/enabled? |
| `format` | _string_ | (Required) Either `namespace` or `access`. |
| `connectionString` | _string_ | (Optional) [Connection string parameters](https://godoc.org/github.com/lib/pq#hdr-Connection_String_Parameters) for the PostgreSQL server. Can be used to set `sslmode` for example. |
| `table` | _string_ | (Required) Table name in which events will be stored/updated. If the table does not exist, the Minio server creates it at start-up.|
| `host` | _string_ | (Optional) Host name of the PostgreSQL server. Defaults to `localhost`|
| `port` | _string_ | (Optional) Port on which to connect to PostgreSQL server. Defaults to `5432`. |
| `user` | _string_ | (Optional) Database user name. Defaults to user running the server process. |
Note that for illustration here, we have disabled SSL. In the interest of security, for production this is not recommended.
After updating the configuration file, restart the Minio server to put the changes into effect. The server will print a line like `SQS ARNs: arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:postgresql` at start-up if there were no errors.
Note that, you can add as many PostgreSQL server endpoint configurations as needed by providing an identifier (like "1" in the example above) for the PostgreSQL instance and an object of per-server configuration parameters.
We will now enable bucket event notifications on a bucket named `images`. Whenever a JPEG image is created/overwritten, a new row is added or an existing row is updated in the PostgreSQL configured above. When an existing object is deleted, the corresponding row is deleted from the PostgreSQL table. Thus, the rows in the PostgreSQL table, reflect the `.jpg` objects in the `images` bucket.
To configure this bucket notification, we need the ARN printed by Minio in the previous step. Additional information about ARN is available [here](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html).
With the `mc` tool, the configuration is very simple to add. Let us say that the Minio server is aliased as `myminio` in our mc configuration. Execute the following:
Install MySQL from [here](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/). For illustrative purposes, we have set the root password as `password` and created a database called `miniodb` to store the events.
This notification target supports two formats: _namespace_ and _access_.
When the _namespace_ format is used, Minio synchronizes objects in the bucket with rows in the table. It creates rows with two columns: key_name and value. The key_name is the bucket and object name of an object that exists in Minio. The value is JSON encoded event data about the operation that created/replaced the object in Minio. When objects are updated or deleted, the corresponding row from this table is updated or deleted respectively.
When the _access_ format is used, Minio appends events to a table. It creates rows with two columns: event_time and event_data. The event_time is the time at which the event occurred in the Minio server. The event_data is the JSON encoded event data about the operation on an object. No rows are deleted or modified in this format.
The steps below show how to use this notification target in `namespace` format. The other format is very similar and is omitted for brevity.
### Step 1: Add MySQL server endpoint configuration to Minio
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. The MySQL configuration is located in the `mysql` key under the `notify` top-level key. Create a configuration key-value pair here for your MySQL instance. The key is a name for your MySQL endpoint, and the value is a collection of key-value parameters described in the table below.
| `enable` | _bool_ | (Required) Is this server endpoint configuration active/enabled? |
| `format` | _string_ | (Required) Either `namespace` or `access`. |
| `dsnString` | _string_ | (Optional) [Data-Source-Name connection string](https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql#dsn-data-source-name) for the MySQL server. If not specified, the connection information specified by the `host`, `port`, `user`, `password` and `database` parameters are used. |
| `table` | _string_ | (Required) Table name in which events will be stored/updated. If the table does not exist, the Minio server creates it at start-up.|
| `host` | _string_ | Host name of the MySQL server (used only if `dsnString` is empty). |
| `port` | _string_ | Port on which to connect to the MySQL server (used only if `dsnString` is empty). |
| `user` | _string_ | Database user-name (used only if `dsnString` is empty). |
| `password` | _string_ | Database password (used only if `dsnString` is empty). |
| `database` | _string_ | Database name (used only if `dsnString` is empty). |
After updating the configuration file, restart the Minio server to put the changes into effect. The server will print a line like `SQS ARNs: arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:mysql` at start-up if there were no errors.
Note that, you can add as many MySQL server endpoint configurations as needed by providing an identifier (like "1" in the example above) for the MySQL instance and an object of per-server configuration parameters.
### Step 2: Enable bucket notification using Minio client
We will now setup bucket notifications on a bucket named `images`. Whenever a JPEG image object is created/overwritten, a new row is added or an existing row is updated in the MySQL table configured above. When an existing object is deleted, the corresponding row is deleted from the MySQL table. Thus, the rows in the MySQL table, reflect the `.jpg` objects in the `images` bucket.
To configure this bucket notification, we need the ARN printed by Minio in the previous step. Additional information about ARN is available [here](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html).
With the `mc` tool, the configuration is very simple to add. Let us say that the Minio server is aliased as `myminio` in our mc configuration. Execute the following:
```
# Create bucket named `images` in myminio
mc mb myminio/images
# Add notification configuration on the `images` bucket using the MySQL ARN. The --suffix argument filters events.
Install kafka from [here](http://kafka.apache.org/).
### Step 1: Add kafka endpoint to Minio
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. Update the kafka configuration block in ``config.json`` as follows:
Restart Minio server to reflect config changes. ``bucketevents`` is the topic used by kafka in this example.
### Step 2: Enable bucket notification using Minio client
We will enable bucket event notification to trigger whenever a JPEG image is uploaded or deleted from ``images`` bucket on ``myminio`` server. Here ARN value is ``arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:kafka``. To understand more about ARN please follow [AWS ARN](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html) documentation.
```
mc mb myminio/images
mc events add myminio/images arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:kafka --suffix .jpg
The default location of Minio server configuration file is ``~/.minio/config.json``. Update the Webhook configuration block in ``config.json`` as follows
```
"webhook": {
"1": {
"enable": true,
"endpoint": "http://localhost:3000/"
}
```
Here the endpoint is the server listening for webhook notifications. Save the file and restart the Minio server for changes to take effect. Note that the endpoint needs to be live and reachable when you restart your Minio server.
### Step 2: Enable bucket notification using Minio client
We will enable bucket event notification to trigger whenever a JPEG image is uploaded to ``images`` bucket on ``myminio`` server. Here ARN value is ``arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:webhook``. To learn more about ARN please follow [AWS ARN](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html) documentation.
```
mc mb myminio/images
mc mb myminio/images-thumbnail
mc events add myminio/images arn:minio:sqs:us-east-1:1:webhook — events put — suffix .jpg
We used [Thumbnailer](https://github.com/minio/thumbnailer) to listen for Minio notifications when a new JPEG file is uploaded (HTTP PUT). Triggered by a notification, Thumbnailer uploads a thumbnail of new image to Minio server. To start with, download and install Thumbnailer.
```
git clone https://github.com/minio/thumbnailer/
npm install
```
Then open the Thumbnailer config file at ``config/webhook.json`` and add the configuration for your Minio server and then start Thumbnailer by
```
NODE_ENV=webhook node thumbnail-webhook.js
```
Thumbnailer starts running at ``http://localhost:3000/``. Next, configure the Minio server to send notifications to this URL (as mentioned in step 1) and use ``mc`` to set up bucket notifications (as mentioned in step 2). Then upload a JPEG image to Minio server by
*NOTE* If you are running [distributed Minio](https://docs.minio.io/docs/distributed-minio-quickstart-guide), modify ``~/.minio/config.json`` on all the nodes with your bucket event notification backend configuration.
