The mc (MinIO S3 Client) tool is a modern alternative to s3cmd for interacting with S3-compatible storage, including Sive.Host S3.

You can configure mc to use your custom Sive.Host S3 endpoint (https://s3.sive.host or https://s4.sive.host) and perform various operations such as creating buckets, uploading files, and managing users.

Step-by-Step Guide to Configure mc

1. Install mc

   On Linux:

   sudo wget https://dl.min.io/client/mc/release/linux-amd64/mc 
   sudo chmod +x mc 
   sudo mv mc /usr/local/bin/

   On macOS:

   brew install minio/stable/mc

2. Configure mc

   Add your Sive.Host S3 endpoint as an alias in mc. Replace <access-key>, <secret-key>, and s3.sive.host with your specific details:

   mc alias set madiba-s3 https://s3.sive.host <access-key> <secret-key> --api S3v4

3. Verify Configuration

   Check if the configuration is correct by listing buckets:

   mc ls madiba-s3

Example Commands

1. List Buckets

   mc ls madiba-s3

2. Create a Bucket

   mc mb madiba-s3/your-bucket-name

3. Upload a File to a Bucket

   mc cp your-file.txt madiba-s3/your-bucket-name/

4. Download a File from a Bucket

   mc cp madiba-s3/your-bucket-name/your-file.txt .

5. List Files in a Bucket

   mc ls madiba-s3/your-bucket-name

6. Remove a File from a Bucket

   mc rm madiba-s3/your-bucket-name/your-file.txt

Full Example

1. Install mc

   mc alias set umlando-s3 https://s3.sive.host <access-key> <secret-key> --api S3v4

3. List Buckets

   mc ls umlando-s3

4. Create a Bucket

   mc mb umlando-s3/your-bucket-name

5. Upload a File to a Bucket

   mc cp your-file.txt umlando-s3/your-bucket-name/

6. Download a File from a Bucket
