| # MinIO Python Library for Amazon S3 Compatible Cloud Storage [](https://slack.min.io) |
|
|
| The MinIO Python Client SDK provides simple APIs to access any Amazon S3 compatible object storage server. |
|
|
| This quickstart guide will show you how to install the client SDK and execute an example python program. For a complete list of APIs and examples, please take a look at the [Python Client API Reference](https://docs.min.io/docs/python-client-api-reference) documentation. |
|
|
| This document assumes that you have a working [Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) setup in place. |
|
|
| ## Minimum Requirements |
|
|
| - Python 3.6 or higher |
|
|
| ## Download from pip |
|
|
| ```sh |
| pip install minio |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Download from pip3 |
|
|
| ```sh |
| pip3 install minio |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Download from source |
|
|
| ```sh |
| git clone https://github.com/minio/minio-py |
| cd minio-py |
| python setup.py install |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Initialize MinIO Client |
|
|
| You need four items in order to connect to MinIO object storage server. |
|
|
| | Params | Description | |
| | :------- | :---- | |
| | endpoint | URL to object storage service. | |
| | access_key| Access key is like user ID that uniquely identifies your account. | |
| | secret_key| Secret key is the password to your account. | |
| |secure|Set this value to 'True' to enable secure (HTTPS) access.| |
|
|
| ```py |
| from minio import Minio |
| from minio.error import ResponseError |
| |
| minioClient = Minio('play.min.io', |
| access_key='Q3AM3UQ867SPQQA43P2F', |
| secret_key='zuf+tfteSlswRu7BJ86wekitnifILbZam1KYY3TG', |
| secure=True) |
| ``` |
|
|
| **NOTE on concurrent usage:** The `Minio` object is thread safe when using the Python `threading` library. Specifically, it is **NOT** safe to share it between multiple processes, for example when using `multiprocessing.Pool`. The solution is simply to create a new `Minio` object in each process, and not share it between processes. |
|
|
|
|
| ## Quick Start Example - File Uploader |
| This example program connects to a MinIO object storage server, makes a bucket on the server and then uploads a file to the bucket. |
|
|
| We will use the MinIO server running at [https://play.min.io](https://play.min.io) in this example. Feel free to use this service for testing and development. Access credentials shown in this example are open to the public. |
|
|
| #### file-uploader.py |
|
|
| ```py |
| # Import MinIO library. |
| from minio import Minio |
| from minio.error import (ResponseError, BucketAlreadyOwnedByYou, |
| BucketAlreadyExists) |
| |
| # Initialize minioClient with an endpoint and access/secret keys. |
| minioClient = Minio('play.min.io', |
| access_key='Q3AM3UQ867SPQQA43P2F', |
| secret_key='zuf+tfteSlswRu7BJ86wekitnifILbZam1KYY3TG', |
| secure=True) |
| |
| # Make a bucket with the make_bucket API call. |
| try: |
| minioClient.make_bucket("maylogs", location="us-east-1") |
| except BucketAlreadyOwnedByYou as err: |
| pass |
| except BucketAlreadyExists as err: |
| pass |
| except ResponseError as err: |
| raise |
| |
| # Put an object 'pumaserver_debug.log' with contents from 'pumaserver_debug.log'. |
| try: |
| minioClient.fput_object('maylogs', 'pumaserver_debug.log', '/tmp/pumaserver_debug.log') |
| except ResponseError as err: |
| print(err) |
| |
| ``` |
|
|
| #### Run file-uploader |
|
|
| ```bash |
| python file_uploader.py |
| |
| mc ls play/maylogs/ |
| [2016-05-27 16:41:37 PDT] 12MiB pumaserver_debug.log |
| ``` |
