## Configuring and starting Garage
### Writing a first configuration file
### Generating a first configuration file
This first configuration file should allow you to get started easily with the simplest
possible Garage deployment.
**Save it as `/etc/garage.toml`.**
You can also store it somewhere else, but you will have to specify `-c path/to/garage.toml`
at each invocation of the `garage` binary (for example: `garage -c ./garage.toml server`, `garage -c ./garage.toml status`).
```toml
We will create it with the following command line
to generate unique and private secrets for security reasons:
```bash
cat > garage.toml <<EOF
metadata_dir = "/tmp/meta"
data_dir = "/tmp/data"

The `rpc_secret` value provided above is just an example. It will work, but in
order to secure your cluster you will need to use another one. You can generate
such a value with `openssl rand -hex 32`.
Now that your configuration file has been created, you can put
it in the right place. By default, garage looks at **`/etc/garage.toml`.**
You can also store it somewhere else, but you will have to specify `-c path/to/garage.toml`
at each invocation of the `garage` binary (for example: `garage -c ./garage.toml server`, `garage -c ./garage.toml status`).
As you can see, the `rpc_secret` is a 32 bytes hexadecimal string.
You can regenerate it with `openssl rand -hex 32`.
If you target a cluster deployment with multiple nodes, make sure that
you use the same value for all nodes.
As you can see in the `metadata_dir` and `data_dir` parameters, we are saving Garage's data
in `/tmp` which gets erased when your system reboots. This means that data stored on this

## Uploading and downlading from Garage
We recommend the use of MinIO Client to interact with Garage files (`mc`).
Instructions to install it and use it are provided on the
[MinIO website](https://docs.min.io/docs/minio-client-quickstart-guide.html).
Before reading the following, you need a working `mc` command on your path.
To download and upload files on garage, we can use a third-party tool named `awscli`.
Note that on certain Linux distributions such as Arch Linux, the Minio client binary
is called `mcli` instead of `mc` (to avoid name clashes with the Midnight Commander).
### Configure `mc`
### Install and configure `awscli`
You need your access key and secret key created above.
We will assume you are invoking `mc` on the same machine as the Garage server,
your S3 API endpoint is therefore `http://127.0.0.1:3900`.
For this whole configuration, you must set an alias name: we chose `my-garage`, that you will used for all commands.
Adapt the following command accordingly and run it:
If you have python on your system, you can install it with:
```bash
mc alias set \
my-garage \
http://127.0.0.1:3900 \
<access key> \
<secret key> \
--api S3v4
python -m pip install --user awscli
```
### Use `mc`
You can not list buckets from `mc` currently.
But the following commands and many more should work:
Now that `awscli` is installed, you must configure it to talk to your Garage instance,
with your key. There are multiple ways to do that, the simplest one is to create a file
named `~/.awsrc` with this content:
```bash
mc cp image.png my-garage/nextcloud-bucket
mc cp my-garage/nextcloud-bucket/image.png .
mc ls my-garage/nextcloud-bucket
mc mirror localdir/ my-garage/another-bucket
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=xxxx # put your Key ID here
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=xxxx # put your Secret key here
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION='garage'
export AWS_ENDPOINT='http://localhost:3900'
function aws { command aws --endpoint-url $AWS_ENDPOINT $@ ; }
aws --version
```
Now, each time you want to use `awscli` on this target, run:
```bash
source ~/.awsrc
```
*You can create multiple files with different names if you
have multiple Garage clusters or different keys.
Switching from one cluster to another is as simple as
sourcing the right file.*
### Example usage of `awscli`
```bash
# list buckets
aws s3 ls
# list objects of a bucket
aws s3 ls s3://my_files
# copy from your filesystem to garage
aws s3 cp /proc/cpuinfo s3://my_files/cpuinfo.txt
# copy from garage to your filesystem
aws s3 cp s3/my_files/cpuinfo.txt /tmp/cpuinfo.txt
```
Note that you can use `awscli` for more advanced operations like
creating a bucket, pre-signing a request or managing your website.
[Read the full documentation to know more](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/s3/index.html).
Some features are however not implemented like ACL or policy.
Check [our s3 compatibility list](@/documentation/reference-manual/s3-compatibility/).
### Other tools for interacting with Garage
The following tools can also be used to send and recieve files from/to Garage:
- the [AWS CLI](https://aws.amazon.com/cli/)
- [`rclone`](https://rclone.org/)
- [Cyberduck](https://cyberduck.io/)
- [`s3cmd`](https://s3tools.org/s3cmd)
- [minio-client](@/documentation/connect/cli/#minio-client)
- [s3cmd](@/documentation/connect/cli/#s3cmd)
- [rclone](@/documentation/connect/cli/#rclone)
- [Cyberduck](@/documentation/connect/cli/#cyberduck)
- [WinSCP](@/documentation/connect/cli/#winscp)
Refer to the ["Integrations" section](@/documentation/connect/_index.md) to learn how to
configure application and command line utilities to integrate with Garage.
An exhaustive list is maintained in the ["Integrations" > "Browsing tools" section](@/documentation/connect/_index.md).
