Attaching an S3 Bucket as NFS Volume in Docker

We can attach an S3 bucket as a mounted Volume in docker.

We need to use a Plugin to achieve this.

The plugin is

We will first install the plugin

docker plugin install rexray/s3fs:latest S3FS_REGION=us-east-2 S3FS_OPTIONS="allow_other,iam_role=auto,umask=000" --grant-all-permissions

We will have to install the plugin as above ,as it gives access to the plugin to S3.

Once installed we can check using

docker plugin ls

Now we can mount the S3 bucket using the volume driver like below to test the mount.

docker run -ti --volume-driver=rexray/s3fs -v ${aws-bucket-name}:/data ubuntu sleep infinity

Thats it the Volume has been mounted from our S3 Bucket

We can inspect the container and check if the bucket has been mounted

"Mounts": [
            {
                "Type": "volume",
                "Name": "maps-openmaps-schools",
                "Source": "",
                "Destination": "/data",
                "Driver": "rexray/s3fs:latest",
                "Mode": "",
                "RW": true,
                "Propagation": ""
            }
        ],

We can also inspect the volume

$ docker volume inspect maps-openmaps-schools
[
    {
        "CreatedAt": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "Driver": "rexray/s3fs:latest",
        "Labels": null,
        "Mountpoint": "",
        "Name": "maps-openmaps-schools",
        "Options": null,
        "Scope": "global",
        "Status": {
            "availabilityZone": "",
            "fields": null,
            "iops": 0,
            "name": "maps-openmaps-schools",
            "server": "s3fs",
            "service": "s3fs",
            "size": 0,
            "type": ""
        }
    }
]
