## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- Rust 1.85 or later
- Linux, macOS, or Windows (WSL2)
- (Optional) Docker and Docker Compose
### Quick Start (Local Development)
```bash
# Clone and build
git clone https://github.com/cool-japan/rs3gw.git
cd rs3gw
cargo build --release
# Run with default settings (binds to 0.0.0.0:9000, stores in ./data)
./target/release/rs3gw
# Run with custom settings
RS3GW_BIND_ADDR=0.0.0.0:9000 \
RS3GW_STORAGE_ROOT=./data \
RS3GW_COMPRESSION=zstd \
./target/release/rs3gw
```
The server is now accessible at `http://localhost:9000`. You can immediately use it with any S3 client (boto3, AWS CLI, etc.).
### Docker Compose (Recommended for Development)
We provide a comprehensive development stack with monitoring:
```bash
# Start the full stack (rs3gw + Prometheus + Grafana + Jaeger + MinIO)
docker-compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d
# Access services:
# - rs3gw S3 API: http://localhost:9000
# - Grafana Dashboard: http://localhost:3000 (admin/admin)
# - Prometheus: http://localhost:9091
# - Jaeger UI: http://localhost:16686
# - MinIO Console: http://localhost:9002 (minioadmin/minioadmin)
```
### Configuration
rs3gw supports both TOML configuration files and environment variables:
- **TOML Configuration**: Copy `rs3gw.toml.example` to `rs3gw.toml` and customize
- **Environment Variables**: Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and customize
- See [TODO.md](TODO.md) for the complete list of 50+ configuration options
**Essential Configuration:**
```bash
export RS3GW_BIND_ADDR="0.0.0.0:9000" # Listen address (default: 0.0.0.0:9000)
export RS3GW_STORAGE_ROOT="./data" # Storage directory (default: ./data)
export RS3GW_ACCESS_KEY="minioadmin" # Access key (empty = no auth)
export RS3GW_SECRET_KEY="minioadmin" # Secret key (empty = no auth)
export RS3GW_COMPRESSION="zstd:3" # Compression: none, zstd, zstd:N, lz4, gzip
export RS3GW_CACHE_ENABLED="true" # Enable object caching
export RS3GW_DEDUP_ENABLED="true" # Enable block-level deduplication
export RS3GW_REQUEST_TIMEOUT="300" # Request timeout in seconds (0 = no timeout)
export RS3GW_MAX_CONCURRENT="0" # Max concurrent requests (0 = unlimited)
export RS3GW_REGION="us-east-1" # Default region
```
## Usage Examples
### Python (boto3)
```python
import boto3
s3 = boto3.client('s3',
endpoint_url='http://localhost:9000',
aws_access_key_id='minioadmin',
aws_secret_access_key='minioadmin',
region_name='us-east-1',
)
# Create bucket
s3.create_bucket(Bucket='my-bucket')
# Upload object
s3.put_object(Bucket='my-bucket', Key='hello.txt', Body=b'Hello, World!')
# Download object
response = s3.get_object(Bucket='my-bucket', Key='hello.txt')
print(response['Body'].read())
# List objects
for obj in s3.list_objects_v2(Bucket='my-bucket').get('Contents', []):
print(f" {obj['Key']} ({obj['Size']} bytes)")
# Delete object
s3.delete_object(Bucket='my-bucket', Key='hello.txt')
```
**Advanced boto3 usage (S3 Select, multipart uploads):**
```python
# S3 Select - SQL queries on stored data
response = s3.select_object_content(
Bucket='my-bucket',
Key='data.csv',
ExpressionType='SQL',
Expression='SELECT name, age FROM S3Object WHERE age > 25',
InputSerialization={'CSV': {'FileHeaderInfo': 'USE'}},
OutputSerialization={'CSV': {}}
)
# Multipart upload for large files
mpu = s3.create_multipart_upload(Bucket='my-bucket', Key='large.dat')
parts = []
for i, chunk in enumerate(read_chunks('large.dat', 5*1024*1024), 1):
part = s3.upload_part(
Bucket='my-bucket', Key='large.dat',
PartNumber=i, UploadId=mpu['UploadId'],
Body=chunk
)
parts.append({'PartNumber': i, 'ETag': part['ETag']})
s3.complete_multipart_upload(
Bucket='my-bucket', Key='large.dat',
UploadId=mpu['UploadId'],
MultipartUpload={'Parts': parts}
)
```
### AWS CLI
```bash
# Create a bucket
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:9000 s3 mb s3://my-bucket
# Upload a file
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:9000 s3 cp myfile.txt s3://my-bucket/
# List bucket contents
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:9000 s3 ls s3://my-bucket/
# Download a file
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:9000 s3 cp s3://my-bucket/myfile.txt downloaded.txt
# Recursive copy
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:9000 s3 cp ./local-dir/ s3://my-bucket/prefix/ --recursive
# S3 Select query (SQL on CSV/JSON/Parquet)
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:9000 s3api select-object-content \
--bucket my-bucket \
--key data.csv \
--expression "SELECT * FROM S3Object WHERE age > 30" \
--expression-type SQL \
--input-serialization '{"CSV": {"FileHeaderInfo": "USE"}}' \
--output-serialization '{"CSV": {}}' \
output.csv
```
### gRPC (High-Performance Binary Protocol)
```rust
use rs3gw_proto::s3_service_client::S3ServiceClient;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut client = S3ServiceClient::connect("http://localhost:9000").await?;
let request = tonic::Request::new(ListBucketsRequest {});
let response = client.list_buckets(request).await?;
for bucket in response.into_inner().buckets {
println!("Bucket: {}", bucket.name);
}
Ok(())
}
```
### GraphQL
```graphql
query {
buckets {
name
creationDate
objectCount
totalSize
}
searchObjects(query: "*.parquet", bucket: "my-bucket") {
key
size
lastModified
}
}
```
### WebSocket (Real-Time Events)
```javascript
const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:9000/events/stream?bucket=my-bucket');
ws.onmessage = (event) => {
const data = JSON.parse(event.data);
console.log('Event:', data.event_type, data.object_key);
};
```

```bash
# OpenTelemetry distributed tracing
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://jaeger:4317 # OTLP collector endpoint (gRPC)
export OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER=traceidratio # Sampling strategy
export OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER_ARG=0.1 # Sample 10% of traces
export OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=otlp # Exporter type (otlp or none)
export OTEL_SERVICE_NAME=rs3gw # Service name in traces
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES=deployment.env=prod # Additional resource attributes
# Profiling
export RS3GW_PROFILING_ENABLED=true
export RS3GW_PROFILING_INTERVAL_SECS=60
```
**OpenTelemetry Environment Variables Reference:**
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` | (none) | OTLP gRPC endpoint URL |
| `OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER` | `parentbased_always_on` | Sampling strategy |
| `OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER_ARG` | `1.0` | Sampler argument (ratio for `traceidratio`) |
| `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER` | `otlp` | Exporter type (`otlp` or `none` to disable) |
| `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` | `rs3gw` | Service name in trace spans |
| `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` | (none) | Comma-separated key=value resource attributes |
**Prometheus Metrics** are served at `GET /metrics` and include 30+ metric families covering request latency, throughput, object sizes, cache hit rates, compression ratios, dedup savings, cluster health, and more.

## 🔬 SCIRS2 Policy Compliance
Rs3gw is fully compliant with the [SCIRS2 (Scientific Rust) ecosystem](https://github.com/cool-japan/scirs) policies. This ensures high-quality, reproducible, and scientifically sound code.
### Key Compliance Areas
- ✅ **Pure Rust**: 100% Pure Rust in default features (C dependencies feature-gated)
- ✅ **No Warnings**: Zero compiler and clippy warnings enforced
- ✅ **No Unwrap**: All errors properly handled with Result types
- ✅ **SciRS2 Integration**: Uses scirs2-core for RNG and scirs2-io for storage
- ✅ **Workspace Structure**: Proper Cargo workspace with shared dependencies
- ✅ **File Size Limits**: All files under 2,000 lines
- ✅ **Latest Crates**: Dependencies kept up-to-date with crates.io
- ✅ **Code Formatting**: cargo fmt enforced on all code
### Random Number Generation
Rs3gw uses `scirs2-core::random` instead of the standard `rand` crate for:
- Better reproducibility in scientific contexts
- Integration with SciRS2 statistical libraries
- Consistent behavior across the ecosystem
### Verification
Verify policy compliance:
```bash
# Run all policy checks
./scripts/verify_policies.sh
# Individual checks
cargo build --all-features # No warnings
cargo clippy --all-targets # No clippy warnings
cargo nextest run # All tests pass
```
For detailed policy information, see [SCIRS2_POLICY.md](SCIRS2_POLICY.md).

## Known Limitations
The following are known gaps in the current release (0.2.0). They are documented here to set accurate expectations for production deployments.
- **SigV4 chunked streaming HMAC**: Per-chunk HMAC verification for `STREAMING-AWS4-HMAC-SHA256-PAYLOAD` and `UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD` is not implemented. The request body is accepted when these payload types are declared; only the canonical request signature is verified. Full per-chunk HMAC is planned for a future release.
- **Object Lock / WORM**: Object Lock API endpoints (`GetObjectRetention`, `PutObjectRetention`, `GetObjectLegalHold`, `PutObjectLegalHold`) are registered but return "Object Lock must be enabled" errors. Retention and legal-hold constraints are not enforced.
- **S3 Lifecycle rule execution**: `PutBucketLifecycleConfiguration` and `GetBucketLifecycleConfiguration` accept and return lifecycle rules, but the rules are not executed. Expiration, transition, and abort-multipart-upload actions are not triggered automatically.
- **Bucket configuration stubs**: Many bucket configuration APIs (encryption, CORS, notification, logging, request payment, website, accelerate, ownership controls, public access block, intelligent tiering, metrics, analytics, inventory) accept PUT requests without error but do not persist or enforce the configuration. GET requests return default/empty responses.
- **Cross-region replication execution**: `PutBucketReplication` stores replication configuration and `GetBucketReplication` returns it, but object transfers to remote destinations are not implemented in this release.
- **Filesystem-only storage backend**: The storage engine writes objects to the local filesystem. Cloud-backed storage (AWS S3, GCS, Azure Blob, MinIO) is listed in the architecture diagram as a future target but is not available in this release.
- **gRPC TLS requires manual cert provisioning**: Enabling TLS for the gRPC server requires manually providing a certificate and key via `RS3GW_GRPC_TLS_CERT` / `RS3GW_GRPC_TLS_KEY`. Automatic TLS (e.g. ACME/Let's Encrypt) is not supported.
- **Cluster / gossip synchronization not implemented**: `RS3GW_CLUSTER_ENABLED=true` parses cluster configuration and initialises the replication manager, but inter-node gossip and data synchronization are not yet implemented. All nodes operate independently.
- **Lambda Object Lambda**: `WriteGetObjectResponse` returns NotImplemented. Lambda integration is not supported.
- **BitTorrent**: `GetObjectTorrent` returns NotImplemented.
