RoR Pet catalog app using carrierwave and minio

This project is made with the help of this tutorial

Example Ruby on Rails App that works with a Minio Server. We will use the carrierwave gem in our rails app to upload objects to a Minio Server. Full code is available here : https://github.com/sadysnaat/minio-carrierwave, released under Apache 2.0 License.

1. Prerequisites

• Install mc from here.
• Install Minio Server from here.
• ruby 2.0 and above
• rails 4.0 and above

2. Dependencies

• carrierwave
• fog-aws
• twitter-bootstrap-rails
• mini_magick

3. Install

$ git clone git@github.com:sadysnaat/minio-carrierwave.git
$ cd minio-carrierwave
$ bundle install

4. Set Up Bucket

In this example I have used minio public server and bucket is testbucket.

If you wish to use another bucket, create a new bucket with the following command.

$ mc mb play/new_bucket_name

5. Configure carrierwave defaults to Minio Server

# Set default configuration here, if you wish to use different buckets/servers in
# different environments please set configuration in config/environments/ files
CarrierWave.configure do |config|
  config.fog_provider = 'fog/aws'                        # Mention Fog provider
  config.fog_credentials = {
    provider:              'AWS',                        # required
    aws_access_key_id:     'Q3AM3UQ867SPQQA43P2F',
    aws_secret_access_key: 'zuf+tfteSlswRu7BJ86wekitnifILbZam1KYY3TG',
    region:                'us-east-1',                  # optional, defaults to 'us-east-1',
                                                         # Please mention other regions if you have changed
                                                         # minio configuration
    host:                  'play.minio.io',              # Provide your host name here, otherwise fog-aws defaults to
                                                         # s3.amazonaws.com
    endpoint:              'https://play.minio.io:9000', # Required, otherwise defauls to nil
    path_style:         true                             # Required
  }
  config.fog_directory  = 'carrierwave'
end

8. Run The App

$ rake db:migrate
$ rails s

Now if you visit http://localhost:3000 you should be able to see the example application.
