In-memory

The settings for the in-memory filesystem. This filesystem is accessible on /memfs via HTTP. This filesystem can only be accessed via HTTP. Writing to and deleting from the filesystem can be restricted by HTTP basic auth.

Configuration

JSON

{
   "storage": {
      "memory": {
         "auth": {
            "enable": true,
            "username": "admin",
            "password": "datarhei"
         },
         "max_size_mbytes": 0,
         "purge": false
      }
   }
}

ENV

auth.enable (bool)

Set this value to true in order to enable basic auth for PUT, POST, and DELETE operations on /memfs. Read access (GET, HEAD) is not restricted. If enabled, you have to define a username and a password.

It is highly recommended to enable basic auth for write operations on /memfs.

By default this value is set to false.

auth.username (string)

Username for Basic-Auth of /memfs. This has to be set if basic auth is enabled.

By default this value is not set, i.e. an empty string.

auth.password (string)

Password for Basic-Auth of /memfs. This has to be set if basic auth is enabled.

By default this value is not set, i.e. an empty string.

max_size_mbytes (unsigned integer)

The maximum amount of data that is allowed to be stored in this filesystem. The value is interpreted as megabytes. A 507 Insufficient Storage will be returned if you hit the limit. Use a value equal to or smaller than 0 to not set any limits. The limit will be the available memory.

By default no limit is set, i.e. a value of 0.

purge (bool)

Whether to automatically remove the oldest files if the filesystem is full.

By default this value is set to false.
