Has anyone got some experience/advice for choosing between the options? It seems like they are:

My usecase is just to have a local single instance for testing apps against. I prefer to spin stuff up in Docker on the homelab.

I set garage via docker and it was not impossibly hard.

Main problem is that there isn't an admin panel and you can't login to the docker container via docker exec, so you have to write some python (or other language of your choice) to send requests to the API port to:

Set the layout of your server
Create an user
Create a bucket
Assign that bucket to your user

You can use docker exec with garage docker image.

I'm on mobile but I think you just need something like: docker exec containerid ./garage stats

[–] thirdBreakfast@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

This is correct, I already installed the minio cli, but when I came back and read this, I tried it out and yes, once garage is running in the container, you can

alias garage="docker exec -ti <container name> /garage"

so you can do the cli things like garage bucket info test-bucket or whatever. The --help for the garage command is pretty great, which is good since they don't write it up much in the docs.

Ah maybe I was missing the ./ , it said garage not found on path (on mobile, can't try)

Postman is great for sending api queries.

Thanks. I ended up going with Garage (in Docker), and installed the minio client cli for these tasks.
