Option for custom CDN endpoint when using S3 file store

[gmemstr]

When using an S3 file store, it looks like files are fetched using a presigned URL direct from the bucket. This is probably okay for most people, but it would be nice to be able to define a custom CDN endpoint, for example if you want to put Cloudfront in front of the bucket with a custom URL or proxying a Cloudflare R2 bucket. This would let us stick with a single domain and configure caching to avoid excessive requests to the bucket.

I'm not familiar with Elixir, but I'm willing to give it a shot at implementing.

I actually thought about this too. Seems like a good idea.

We're serving files from a private bucket (i.e. objects themselves being private, requiring pre-signing). Do you have examples of how e.g. Cloudflare, Fastly, Cloudfront URLs would look like when compared to the original bucket URL? I assume simple domain substitution would only work for fully public objects, right?

The recent server releases has been reworked in this regard. All the assets are now served directly by the server, and the files stored on S3/R2 are first fetched and cached locally. So no excessive requests to S3, and everything goes from a single domain.
