MinIO Console is a library that provides a management and browser UI overlay for the MinIO Server.

## Setup

All `console` needs is a MinIO user with admin privileges and URL pointing to your MinIO deployment.

> Note: We don't recommend using MinIO's Operator Credentials

### 1. Create a user `console` using `mc`

```bash
mc admin user add myminio/
Enter Access Key: console
Enter Secret Key: xxxxxxxx
```

### 2. Create a policy for `console` with admin access to all resources (for testing)

```sh
cat > admin.json << EOF
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [{
"Action": [
"admin:*"
],
"Effect": "Allow",
"Sid": ""
},
{
"Action": [
"s3:*"
],
"Effect": "Allow",
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::*"
],
"Sid": ""
}
]
}
EOF
```

```sh
mc admin policy create myminio/ consoleAdmin admin.json
```

### 3. Set the policy for the new `console` user

```sh
mc admin policy attach myminio consoleAdmin --user=console
```

> NOTE: Additionally, you can create policies to limit the privileges for other `console` users, for example, if you
> want the user to only have access to dashboard, buckets, notifications and watch page, the policy should look like
> this:

```json
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Action": [
"admin:ServerInfo"
],
"Effect": "Allow",
"Sid": ""
},
{
"Action": [
"s3:ListenBucketNotification",
"s3:PutBucketNotification",
"s3:GetBucketNotification",
"s3:ListMultipartUploadParts",
"s3:ListBucketMultipartUploads",
"s3:ListBucket",
"s3:HeadBucket",
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:GetBucketLocation",
"s3:AbortMultipartUpload",
"s3:CreateBucket",
"s3:PutObject",
"s3:DeleteObject",
"s3:DeleteBucket",
"s3:PutBucketPolicy",
"s3:DeleteBucketPolicy",
"s3:GetBucketPolicy"
],
"Effect": "Allow",
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::*"
],
"Sid": ""
}
]
}
```

## Start Console service:

Before running console service, following environment settings must be supplied

```sh
# Salt to encrypt JWT payload
export CONSOLE_PBKDF_PASSPHRASE=SECRET

# Required to encrypt JWT payload
export CONSOLE_PBKDF_SALT=SECRET

# MinIO Endpoint
export CONSOLE_MINIO_SERVER=http://localhost:9000
```

Now start the console service.

```
./console server
2021-01-19 02:36:08.893735 I | 2021/01/19 02:36:08 server.go:129: Serving console at http://localhost:9090
```

By default `console` runs on port `9090` this can be changed with `--port` of your choice.

## Start Console service with TLS:

Copy your `public.crt` and `private.key` to `~/.console/certs`, then:

```sh
./console server
2021-01-19 02:36:08.893735 I | 2021/01/19 02:36:08 server.go:129: Serving console at http://[::]:9090
2021-01-19 02:36:08.893735 I | 2021/01/19 02:36:08 server.go:129: Serving console at https://[::]:9443
```

For advanced users, `console` has support for multiple certificates to service clients through multiple domains.

Following tree structure is expected for supporting multiple domains:

```sh
certs/

├─ public.crt
├─ private.key

├─ example.com/
│ │
│ ├─ public.crt
│ └─ private.key
└─ foobar.org/

├─ public.crt
└─ private.key
...

```

## Connect Console to a Minio using TLS and a self-signed certificate

Copy the MinIO `ca.crt` under `~/.console/certs/CAs`, then:

```sh
export CONSOLE_MINIO_SERVER=https://localhost:9000
./console server
```

You can verify that the apis work by doing the request on `localhost:9090/api/v1/...`

## Debug logging

In some cases it may be convenient to log all HTTP requests. This can be enabled by setting
the `CONSOLE_DEBUG_LOGLEVEL` environment variable to one of the following values:

- `0` (default) uses no logging.
- `1` log single line per request for server-side errors (status-code 5xx).
- `2` log single line per request for client-side and server-side errors (status-code 4xx/5xx).
- `3` log single line per request for all requests (status-code 4xx/5xx).
- `4` log details per request for server-side errors (status-code 5xx).
- `5` log details per request for client-side and server-side errors (status-code 4xx/5xx).
- `6` log details per request for all requests (status-code 4xx/5xx).

A single line logging has the following information:
- Remote endpoint (IP + port) of the request. Note that reverse proxies may hide the actual remote endpoint of the client's browser.
- HTTP method and URL
- Status code of the response (websocket connections are hijacked, so no response is shown)
- Duration of the request

The detailed logging also includes all request and response headers (if any).
