MinIO
Installing MinIO on SME
Just some notes on the basics of installing MinIO
It works, but needs a startup script to automate start/stop
This could be used with your own instance of say [RClone](https://wiki.contribs.org/Rclone)

Install Minio on Centos Linux
In this example, we’ll install Minio to /opt/minio, and will configure it to run as a (systemd) service. 1. Add a minio user useradd -s /sbin/nologin -d /opt/minio minio
2. Set up directories mkdir -p /opt/minio/bin mkdir /opt/minio/data # this will be your data partition
3. Install minio server binary and set it to executable. In this example we use the Linux x64 binary. wget https://dl.minio.io/server/minio/release/linux-amd64/minio -O /opt/minio/bin/minio chmod +x /opt/minio/bin/minio
4. Ensure all files are owned by minio in /opt/minio: chown -R minio:minio /opt/minio
This will start on all interfaces:
/opt/minio/bin/minio server /opt/minio/data
This will limit it to one interface:
/opt/minio/bin/minio server --address 1.2.3.4:9000 /opt/minio/data
Note this only runs on http. It could run http but for EXTERNAL access it is recommended to run a revers proxy. You can then use SSL certs as well.
Make sure you keep a note of the AccessKey and SecretKey.
You can access the server via http://1.2.3.4:9000
Other options
/opt/minio/bin/minio --help

This can enable tracing for issues etc
Some other notes
Init scripts that don't work on SME - note there is a Unit file for systemd
