Image Uploader

This is a simple web application for uploading images and getting a public link. It uses Go for the backend, MinIO for object storage, and Docker for containerization.

Features

• Image upload through a simple web interface.
• Generates a unique, shareable link for each uploaded image.
• Uses MinIO for scalable and reliable object storage.
• Fully containerized with Docker and Docker Compose for easy deployment.

Prerequisites

• Docker
• Docker Compose

How to Run

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/gemini/blobs
   cd blobs

2. Configure MinIO credentials:

   Open the docker-compose.yml file and replace the placeholder values for MINIO_ACCESS_KEY, MINIO_SECRET_KEY, MINIO_ROOT_USER and MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD with your own secure credentials.

3. Build and run the application:

   docker-compose up --build

4. Access the application:

   Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080.

How it Works

• The Go application serves a simple HTML page with an upload form.
• When an image is uploaded, the application generates a unique filename and uploads it to the configured MinIO bucket.
• The application then returns a public link to the uploaded image.
• The /uploads/:filename endpoint serves the images directly from the MinIO bucket.
