Run Minio docker image

Test Minio Docker Container

Minio generates new access and secret keys each time you run this command. Container state is lost after you end this session. This mode is only intended for testing purpose.

docker run -p 9000:9000 minio/minio /export

Run Minio Docker Container

Minio container requires a persistent volume to store configuration and application data. Following command maps local persistent directories from the host OS to virtual config ~/.minio and export /export directories.

docker run -p 9000:9000 --name minio1 \
  -v /mnt/export/minio1:/export \
  -v /mnt/config/minio1:/root/.minio \
  minio/minio /export

Custom Access and Secret Keys

To override Minio's auto-generated keys, you may pass secret and access keys explicitly as environment variables. Minio server also allows regular strings as access and secret keys.

docker run -p 9000:9000 --name minio1 \
  -e "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE" \
  -e "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY" \
  -v /mnt/export/minio1:/export \
  -v /mnt/config/minio1:/root/.minio \
  minio/minio /export
