Generate RSA keys for JWT

mkdir -p ~/.minio/web

openssl genrsa -out ~/.minio/web/private.key 2048

openssl rsa -in ~/.minio/web/private.key -outform PEM -pubout -out ~/.minio/web/public.key

Start minio server

minio server <testdir>

Implemented JSON RPC APIs.

Namespace Web

• Login - waits for 'username, password' and on success replies a new JWT token.
• ResetToken - resets token, requires password and token.
• Logout - currently a dummy operation.
• ListBuckets - lists buckets, requires valid token.
• ListObjects - lists objects, requires valid token.
• GetObjectURL - generates a url for download access, requires valid token.

Now you can use webrpc.js to make requests.

• Login example

var webRPC = require('webrpc');
var web = new webRPC("http://localhost:9001/rpc")

// Generate JWT Token.
web.Login({"username": "YOUR-ACCESS-KEY-ID", "password": "YOUR-SECRET-ACCESS-KEY"})
  .then(function(data) {
    console.log("success : ", data);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log("fail : ", error.toString());
  });

• ListBuckets example

var webRPC = require('webrpc');
var web = new webRPC("http://localhost:9001/rpc", "my-token")

// Generate Token.
web.ListBuckets()
  .then(function(data) {
    console.log("Success : ", data);
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
    console.log("fail : ", error.toString());
  });
