To connect PHP to MinIO, first install the AWS SDK for PHP package:
composer require aws/aws-sdk-php
The example below shows how to connect to MinIO from PHP using the AWS SDK:
<?php
// Include the SDK using the Composer autoloader
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$s3 = new Aws\S3\S3Client([
'version' => 'latest',
'region' => 'us-east-1',
'endpoint' => 'https://<XXXXXX>.stackhero-network.com',
'use_path_style_endpoint' => true,
'credentials' => [
'key' => 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY',
'secret' => 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'
],
]);
// Send a PutObject request and obtain the result.
$insert = $s3->putObject([
'Bucket' => 'testbucket',
'Key' => 'testkey',
'Body' => 'Hello from MinIO!'
]);
// Download the contents of the object.
$retrieve = $s3->getObject([
'Bucket' => 'testbucket',
'Key' => 'testkey',
'SaveAs' => 'testkey_local'
]);
// Print the body of the retrieved result.
echo $retrieve['Body'];
