Flask minio factory

A package, which provides easy usage for minio with flask.

Via this package you can easily create this connection

• with directly creating a minio instance
• or by using the application factory pattern

Intallation

You can install the package from pip:

pip install flask-minio-factory

Usage

If you want to create a minio instance directly you can achieve it by:

from flask import Flask
from flask_minio import Minio

app = Flask(__name__)
minio_client = Minio(app)

If you want to create the client via the application factory, you are able to do that with:

from flask import Flask, send_file
from flask_minio import Minio

app = Flask(__name__)

minio = Minio()
minio.init_app(app)

If you have the client you can simply call the available methods on it:

@app.route("/img/<id_>")
def query_image(id_):
    with NamedTemporaryFile(suffix="png") as file:
        minio.fget_object("img", id_, file.name)

        return send_file(file.name)

(an example code can be tested under /example)
