I have developed pyminio while trying to work with the minio's original python client with a lot of struggles. I had to read and understand minio's implementations to preform the most simple tasks.
Pyminio is a wrapper to minio, that is more indecative for the user.
It works like os
module, so you don't need to understand minio's concepts, and just using regular paths.
Use the package manager pip to install pyminio.
pip install pyminio
or
git clone https://github.com/mmm1513/pyminio.git
cd pyminio
python setup.py install
Firstly you need to set up your Minio Docker, and acquire an ENDPOINT (URL), ACCESS_KEY, and a SECRET_KEY.
-
If you want to add your own minio object you can pass it in the constructor like so:
Install python's Minio module.
from minio import Minio from pyminio import Pyminio minio_obj = Minio( endpoint='<your-minio-endpoint>', # e.g. "localhost:9000/" access_key='<your-minio-access-key>', secret_key='<your-minio-secret-key>' ) pyminio_client = Pyminio(minio_obj=minio_obj)
-
If you don't want to handle with minio, you can do this instead:
from pyminio import Pyminio pyminio_client = Pyminio.from_credentials( endpoint='<your-minio-endpoint>', # e.g. "localhost:9000/" access_key='<your-minio-access-key>', secret_key='<your-minio-secret-key>' )
Pyminio.mkdirs
will create the given full path if not exists like linux's mkdir -p
.
This method must get a directory path or it will raise a ValueError.
>>> pyminio_client.mkdirs('/foo/bar/baz/')
>>> pyminio_client.mkdirs('/foo/bar/baz')
ValueError /foo/bar/baz is not a valid directory path. must be absolute and end with /
Pyminio.listdir
will return the directory's content as a tuple of directories and file names. Works like os's listdir
.
This method must get a directory path or it will raise a ValueError.
>>> pyminio_client.listdir('/foo/bar/baz/')
('file_name_1', 'file_name_2', 'directory_name/')
There is an option to use the files_only flag to get only files and dirs_only to get only directories from listdir.
>>> pyminio_client.listdir('/foo/bar/baz/', files_only=True)
('file_name_1', 'file_name_2')
>>> pyminio_client.listdir('/foo/bar/baz/', dirs_only=True)
('directory_name/', )
Pyminio.exists
will return a boolean that confirm rather this path exists or not in the server. Works like os's path.exists
.
/
├── foo
│ └── bar
│ └── baz
│ ├── file_name_1
│ └── file_name_2
>>> pyminio_client.exists('/foo/bar/baz/file_name_1')
True
>>> pyminio_client.exists('/foo/bar/baz/file_name_3')
False
>>> pyminio_client.exists('/all/path/wrong/') # not existing path
False
Pyminio.isdir
will return True only if the given path exists and is a directory. Works like os.path.isdir
.
>>> pyminio_client.isdir('/foo/bar/baz/file_name_1') # existed file
False
>>> pyminio_client.isdir('/foo/bar/baz/directory_name/') # existed directory
True
>>> pyminio_client.isdir('/all/path/wrong/but/directory/') # not existed directory
False
Pyminio.truncate
will delete all minio's content from the root directory.
>>> pyminio_client.truncate()
Pyminio.rmdir
will delete the specified directory. Works like linux's rmdir
/ rm (-r)
.
It will raise a DirectoryNotEmptyError
if given directory is not empty, except if the recursive flag is set and then it will delete given directory's path recursively.
This method must get a directory path or it will raise a ValueError.
>>> pyminio_client.rmdir('/foo/bar/baz/directory_name/') # empty directory
>>> pyminio_client.rmdir('/foo/bar/') # non-empty directory
DirectoryNotEmptyError: can not recursively delete non-empty directory
>>> pyminio_client.rmdir('/foo/bar/', recursive=True)
Pyminio.rm
works like rmdir only that it can delete files too. Works like linux's rm (-r)
.
>>> pyminio_client.rm('/foo/bar/baz/file_name')
Pyminio.cp
will copy one file or directory to given destination. Works like linux's cp (-r)
.
This method can only copy recursively when the recursive flag is True. If not, it will raise a ValueError.
src path | dst path | dst exists | new dst | Explain |
---|---|---|---|---|
/foo/bar | /foo/baz | --- | /foo/baz | The file's name will be copied from bar to baz as well. |
/foo1/bar | /foo2/ | True | /foo/bar | The file will be copied to '/foo2/bar' |
/foo/bar/ | /foo/ | True | /foo/ | The content of '/foo/bar/' will be copied to '/foo/' |
/foo1/bar/ | /foo2/ | False | /foo2/bar/ | '/foo1/bar/' will be copied recursively to '/foo2/bar/' |
/foo1/bar/ | /foo2/baz | --- | --- | ValueError will be raised in attempting to copy directory in to a file |
>>> pyminio_client.cp('/foo/bar', '/foo/baz')
>>> pyminio_client.cp('/foo1/bar', '/foo2/')
>>> pyminio_client.cp('/foo/bar/', '/foo/', recursive=True)
>>> pyminio_client.cp('/foo1/bar/', '/foo2/', recursive=True)
>>> pyminio_client.cp('/foo1/bar/', '/foo2/baz', recursive=True)
ValueError: can not activate this method from directory to a file.
Pyminio.mv
works like cp only that it removes the source after the transfer has been completed. Works like linux's mv
.
This method can only move recursively when the recursive flag is True. If not, it will raise a ValueError.
>>> pyminio_client.mv('/foo/bar/', '/foo/baz/')
Pyminio.get
return an object from given path. This object will be returned as a pyminio.File
object or an pyminio.Folder
object, that both inherit from pyminio.ObjectData
.
This objects will contain metadata, their path and name.
>>> pyminio_client.get('/foo/bar/baz')
File(name='baz',
full_path='/foo/bar/baz',
metadata=AttrDict({
'is_dir': False,
'last_modified': time.struct_time(...),
'size': ...,
'content-type': ...
}),
data=...)
Pyminio.get_last_object
will return the last modified object inside a given directory.
This method must get a directory path or it will raise a ValueError.
>>> pyminio_client.get_last_object('/foo/bar/')
File(name='baz',
full_path='/foo/bar/baz',
metadata=AttrDict({
'is_dir': False,
'last_modified': time.struct_time(...),
'size': ...,
'content-type': ...
}),
data=...)
Pyminio.put_data
gets a path, data in bytes, and some metadata, and create an object inside the given path.
>>> data = b'test'
>>> metadata = {'Pyminio-is': 'Awesome'}
>>> pyminio_client.put_data(path='/foo/bar/baz', data=data, metadata=metadata)
Pyminio.put_file
works like put_data only that instead of data it gets a path to a file in you computer. Then it will copy this file to the given location.
>>> metadata = {'Pyminio-is': 'Awesome'}
>>> pyminio_client.put_file(to_path='/foo/bar/baz', file_path='/mnt/some_file', metadata=metadata)
