I'm new to minio and I want to use it in a Django app, I read the documentation of minio python library and there is fields for MINIO_ENDPOINT, MINIO_ACCESS_KEY, MINIO_SECRET_KEY. I read the Quickstart documentation of minio but I didn't figure out how to find these parameters.

Go to your minio console and find Users page. You can create a new user and set it MINIO_ACCESS_KEY and MINIO_SECRET_KEY or can view user credentials.

If you use docker:

environment:
            MINIO_ROOT_USER: ${MINIO_ROOT_USER}
            MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD}

They are equivalent:

MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=MINIO_ROOT_USER

MINIO_SECRET_KEY=MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD

user_84102900

AccessKey is similar to username and should be minimum of 5 characters. SecretKey is similar to password, it should be randomly generated and kept secure.

Its called Service Accounts, Go to Users menu, then Service Accounts sub menu. create a new MINIO_ACCESS_KEY, MINIO_SECRET_KEY

From the cluster

kubectl get secrets

alex@pop-os:~/coding/preso_hive$ kubectl get secret mino-test-minio -o yaml
apiVersion: v1
data:
  rootPassword: bWluaW8xMjM=
  rootUser: bWluaW8=
kind: Secret

  annotations:

    meta.helm.sh/release-namespace: default
  creationTimestamp: "2022-06-14T10:15:14Z"
  labels:

  resourceVersion: "58285"

Note the rootUser and rootPassword from the secret and you can use base64 to decode

$ echo bWluaW8= | base64 --decode
minioalex

$ echo bWluaW8xMjM= | base64 --decode
