Configuration

There are three ways to configure the S3 GW:

1. CLI parameters
2. YAML file
3. Environment variables

Everything available as a CLI parameter can also be specified via environment variables and almost everything can be specified via .yaml configuration file.

But not vice versa, some parameters can be configured only with environment variables/configuration file. Most of these parameters have default values, therefore, these ways to configure the gateway are optional and basic configuration can be completed with CLI parameters only.

1. CLI parameters
   1. Nodes and weights
   2. Wallet
   3. Binding and TLS
   4. RPC endpoint and resolving of bucket names
   5. Processing of requests
   6. Connection to FrostFS
   7. Monitoring and metrics
2. YAML file and environment variables
   1. Configuration file

CLI parameters

Nodes and weights

You can specify multiple -p options to add more FrostFS nodes; this will make a gateway spread requests equally among them (using weight 1 for every node):

$ frostfs-s3-gw -p 192.168.130.72:8080 -p 192.168.130.71:8080

If you want some specific load distribution proportions, use weights and priorities, they can only be specified via environment variables or a configuration file.

Wallet

Wallet (--wallet) is a mandatory parameter. It is a path to a wallet file. You can provide a passphrase to decrypt a wallet via env variable or conf file, or you will be asked to enter a password interactively. You can also specify an account address to use from a wallet using the --address parameter.

Listening on address and TLS

You can make the gateway listen on specific address using the --listen_address option.

It can also provide TLS interface for its users, just specify paths to the key and certificate files via --tls.key_file and --tls.cert_file parameters. Note that using these options makes gateway TLS-only. If you need to serve both TLS and plain text, you either have to run two gateway instances or use some external redirecting solution.

Example to bind to 192.168.130.130:443 and serve TLS there (keys and nodes are omitted):

$ frostfs-s3-gw --listen_address 192.168.130.130:443 \
  --tls.key_file=key.pem --tls.cert_file=cert.pem

Using these flag you can configure only one address. To set multiple addresses use yaml config.

RPC endpoint and resolving of bucket names

To set RPC endpoint specify a value of parameter -r or --rpc_endpoint. The parameter is required if another parameter's --resolve_order value contains nns.

$ frostfs-s3-gw --rpc_endpoint http://morph-chain.frostfs.devenv:30333/ --resolve_order nns,dns

Processing of requests

Maximum number of clients whose requests can be handled by the gateway can be specified by the value of --max_clients_count parameter. --max_clients_deadline defines deadline after which the gate sends error RequestTimeout to a client.

$ frostfs-s3-gw --max_clients_count 150 --max_clients_deadline 1m

Connection to FrostFS

Timeout to connect to FrostFS nodes can be set with --connect_timeout and timeout to check node health during rebalance--healthcheck_timeout.

Also, interval to check node health can be specified by --rebalance_interval value.

$ frostfs-s3-gw --healthcheck_timeout 15s --connect_timeout 1m --rebalance_interval 1h

Monitoring and metrics

Pprof and Prometheus are integrated into the gateway. To enable them, use --pprof and --metrics flags or S3_GW_PPROF_ENABLED/S3_GW_PROMETHEUS_ENABLED environment variables.

YAML file and environment variables

Example of a YAML configuration file: yaml-example Examples of environment variables: env-example.

A path to a configuration file can be specified with --config parameter:

$ frostfs-s3-gw --config your-config.yaml

Multiple configs

You can use several config files when running application. It allows you to split configuration into parts. For example, you can use separate yaml file for pprof and prometheus section in config (see config examples). You can either provide several files with repeating --config flag or provide path to the dir that contains all configs using --config-dir flag. Also, you can combine these flags:

$ frostfs-s3-gw --config ./config/config.yaml --config /your/partial/config.yaml --config-dir ./config/dir

Note: next file in --config flag overwrites values from the previous one. Files from --config-dir directory overwrite values from --config files. So the command above run frostfs-s3-gw to listen on 0.0.0.0:8080 address (value from ./config/config.yaml), applies parameters from /your/partial/config.yaml, enable pprof (value from ./config/dir/pprof.yaml) and prometheus (value from ./config/dir/prometheus.yaml).

Reload on SIGHUP

Some config values can be reloaded on SIGHUP signal. Such parameters have special mark in tables below.

You can send SIGHUP signal to app using the following command:

$ kill -s SIGHUP <app_pid>

Example:

$ ./bin/frostfs-s3-gw --config config.yaml  &> s3.log &
[1] 998346

$ cat s3.log
# ...
2022-09-30T17:38:22.338+0300    info    s3-gw/app.go:371        application started     {"name": "frostfs-s3-gw", "version": "v0.24.0"}
# ...

$ kill -s SIGHUP 998346

$ cat s3.log
# ...
2022-09-30T17:38:40.909+0300    info    s3-gw/app.go:491        SIGHUP config reload completed

FrostFS S3 Gateway configuration file

This section contains detailed FrostFS S3 Gateway configuration file description including default config values and some tips to set up configurable values.

There are some custom types used for brevity:

• duration -- string consisting of a number and a suffix. Suffix examples include s (seconds), m (minutes), ms ( milliseconds).

# This configuration makes the gateway use the first node (node1.frostfs:8080)
# while it's healthy. Otherwise, gateway uses the second node (node2.frostfs:8080)
# for 10% of requests and the third node (node3.frostfs:8080) for 90% of requests.
# Until nodes with the same priority level are healthy
