Quick Start Example - File Uploader

This example program connects to an S3-compatible object storage server, make a bucket on that server, and upload a file to the bucket.

You need the following items to connect to an S3-compatible object storage server:

Parameters	Description
Endpoint	URL to S3 service.
Access Key	Access key (aka user ID) of an account in the S3 service.
Secret Key	Secret key (aka password) of an account in the S3 service.

This example uses MinIO server playground https://play.min.io. Feel free to use this service for test and development.

file_uploader.py

from minio import Minio
from minio.error import S3Error


def main():
    # Create a client with the MinIO server playground, its access key
    # and secret key.
    client = Minio(
        "play.min.io",
        access_key="Q3AM3UQ867SPQQA43P2F",
        secret_key="zuf+tfteSlswRu7BJ86wekitnifILbZam1KYY3TG",
    )

    # Make 'asiatrip' bucket if not exist.
    found = client.bucket_exists("asiatrip")
    if not found:
        client.make_bucket("asiatrip")
    else:
        print("Bucket 'asiatrip' already exists")

    # Upload '/home/user/Photos/asiaphotos.zip' as object name
    # 'asiaphotos-2015.zip' to bucket 'asiatrip'.
    client.fput_object(
        "asiatrip", "asiaphotos-2015.zip", "/home/user/Photos/asiaphotos.zip",
    )
    print(
        "'/home/user/Photos/asiaphotos.zip' is successfully uploaded as "
        "object 'asiaphotos-2015.zip' to bucket 'asiatrip'."
    )


if __name__ == "__main__":
    try:
        main()
    except S3Error as exc:
        print("error occurred.", exc)

Run File Uploader

$ python file_uploader.py
'/home/user/Photos/asiaphotos.zip' is successfully uploaded as object 'asiaphotos-2015.zip' to bucket 'asiatrip'.

$ mc ls play/asiatrip/
