--console-image, --default-minio-image options doesn't work

[next0262]

I tried to initialize minio-operator with --console-image, --default-minio-image options like this :
$ kubectl minio init --console-image minio/console:v0.20.2 --console-image minio/console:v0.20.2 --default-minio-image minio/minio:RELEASE.2022-09-22T18-57-27Z --image minio/operator:v4.5.4

--console-image
Optional
The default MinIO Console image to use when creating a new MinIO tenant. Defaults to minio/console:v0.17.3.

--default-minio-image
Optional
The default minio image to use when creating a new MinIO tenant. Defaults to minio/minio:RELEASE.2022-05-26T05-48-41Z.

but, the operator didn't use these implicit images of the options for creating tenants., --console-image minio/console:v0.20.2 --default-minio-image minio/minio:RELEASE.2022-09-22T18-57-27Z,

What should i do? As i checked the code of the operator, it looks like not using these options. Am i right?

And i want to separate minio console from minio server for our minio operation environment. To do this, is there any guide i can refer to? or this separation is not recommended??

Proper name is --console-image updating the issue with correct name.

[cniackz]

There is an issue in our official docs: https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/reference/kubectl-minio-plugin/kubectl-minio-init.html

--default-console-image does not exist in current version 5.0.9 of Operator, will create PR to fix this.

[cniackz]

This --console-image refers to the console image in Operator.
We split UI in two, React project is now located in Operator for Operator and in Console for Console.
So in other words, --console-image is for the Operator's Console only.
If you intended to change the image in the Tenant, then, console image goes with MinIO image. So for that all you need to change is minio image not the operator console image. So here the explanation:

• Tenant Console: --default-minio-image <---- Tenant Front End
• MinIO Image: --default-minio-image <---- Tenant Back End
• Operator console: --console-image <---- Operator Front End
• Operator BackEnd image: --image <----- Operator Backend

Our official doc is wrong, I will update the docs and close this issue once we merge those changes in docs repo.

[cniackz]

The other issue is located at https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/reference/kubectl-minio-plugin/kubectl-minio-init.html#kubectl.minio.init.-console-image we are pointing to wrong repo for Console. We should point to operator here!.

Ok, minio/docs#1031 has been merged, let's go into the next problem.

[cniackz]

minio/docs#1032 got merged, explanation can be found here: https://github.com/minio/wiki/wiki/How-to-set-our-different-images-via-Operator-plugin
