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.

CLI parameters

Nodes and weights

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

$ neofs-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 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

Gateway listens on 0.0.0.0:8080 by default, and you can change that with 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):

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

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.

$ neofs-s3-gw --rpc-endpoint http://morph-chain.neofs.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, the default value is 100. --max_clients_deadline defines deadline after which the gate sends error RequestTimeout to a client, default value is 30 seconds.

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

Connection to NeoFS

Timeout to connect to NeoFS nodes can be set with --connect_timeout (default 30s) and timeout to check node health during rebalance--request_timeout (default 15s).

Also, interval to check node health can be specified by --rebalance_timer value, default value is 15s.

$ neofs-s3-gw --request_timeout 15s --connect_timeout 1m --rebalance_timer 1h

Monitoring and metrics

Pprof and Prometheus are integrated into the gateway, but not enabled by default. To enable them, use --pprof and --metrics flags or S3_GW_PPROF/S3_GW_METRICS environment variables.

YAML file and environment variables

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

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

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

Parameters of the following groups can be configured via .yaml file or environment variables only:

  1. logging -- logging level
  2. caching -- lifetime and size for each cache
  3. notifications
  4. CORS
  5. default policy of placing containers in NeoFS

Notifications

You can turn on notifications about successful completions of basic operations, and the gateway will send notifications via NATS JetStream.

To enable notifications you need:

  1. to configure the NATS server with JetStream
  2. to specify NATS parameters for the S3 GW. It's necessary to define a values of nats.enable or S3_GW_NATS_ENABLED as True
  3. to configure notifications in a bucket
