Migrating pictrs from block storage to object? (rabbitea.rs)

submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hey everyone, new instance admin here after following the Ansible setup.

I'm curious about how to switch from block storage for images to object storage - it's marked as possible in the documentation but I'm not sure how to do so when the application is dockerized (as it is on a standard install.)

Any other instance admins have advice?

I mounted an S3 bucket to my VPS using s3fs, and set that as the folder for pict-rs. I haven't noticed any issues with this method yet.

It might also be possible to do using docker storage drivers, but I haven't looked into that.

You figure it out yet? I'm going to be doing the same soon :)
