S3 MinIO Storage
The MinIO storage enables the storage of UIMA XMI files during import, allowing users to download them through UCE. Each file includes the original text along with all annotations in a standardized format.
Additional features leveraging the S3 storage are planned, but currently, it is used solely for downloading files within UCE’s document reader.
For this service, the setup process is the same for both users and developers, as it relies on Docker images.
Setup
No parameters need to be set in the .env file. However, if you want to start the service with an existing S3 database, adjust the following line:
to match the location of your existing data. This will mount the preexisting storage into the service.
Then, simply start the container:
Upon start, the S3 storage comes with a Web UI under http://localhost:9000 or http://localhost:9001. The default credendtials can be found in the docker-compose.yaml
Exposing
If you plan to expose this server outside the Docker Compose network (which is neither recommended nor required for UCE), make sure to change the default admin credentials!
