Image Upload Demo

This demonstrates using Minio (Amazon S3 clone) to upload images

Minio is an open source clone of Amazon S3, it uses the same API.

This uses the python boto3 library to upload images

There is a React frontend and a FastAPI backend

To set this up:

Backend

Inside the backend folder:

First, start up the two docker containers (postgres and minio) with

docker compose up -d

Create your database

docker compose exec postgres psql -U postgres photos
psql# \i data/photos.sql

Create a new bucket named "photos"

Copy the .env.sample file to .env in the backend folder

cp .env.sample .env

Finally create a new virtual environment, pip install, and start up FastAPI.

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
fastapi dev

Inside the frontend folder:

npm install

npm run dev
