So I spent some time on this today. With path style access, rustfs will work 100% with couple lines changes. However, when dealing with virtual host style access, it is not happy with testcontainer due to testcontainer map a random port to host and rustfs is very restrict on server domains (could be bug if not intensional). Take an example, when I have rustfs mapped to port 9000 and testcontainer maps it to 62226 (random selected port), the health check happens on localhost:62226 which is not something we can set ahead of time for RUSTFS_SERVER_DOMAINS. Same observation had being reported in https://github.com/rustfs/rustfs/issues/308 where others confirm: ``` ...I tried the domain name method again. When configuring RUSTFS_SERVER_DOMAINS, if the domain name port is not 443, you need to fill in the port as well, for example, test.rustfs.cn:9000. ``` But with testcontainer, this will map to some random port on host as describe above then throw InvalidBucketName error.
Another issue is https://github.com/rustfs/rustfs/issues/1593 where rustfs thinks that mapping mentioned above is a bucket name. That being said, if we want to change our user facing getting-started example from minio to rustfs, it will work 100%. However, we can't change our integration tests from minio to rustfs if we need to continue cover the tests on virtual host style access.
