MINIO_SHARE_URL

[vanodevium]

While searching for a solution to my problem, I realized that there are already a ton of questions about how to use MINIO_SERVER_URL if minio is running behind a proxy or a server. There is no solution, except to puzzle with certificates, or by opening the port to public access.

Why not just create a new variable MINIO_SHARE_URL that (if configured) will handle specifically the case of creating a share link in the console without breaking the download or preview functionality.

I absolutely understand that the link sharing functionality is designed to be used from the client or SDK, but sometimes it can't be done programmatically and needs to be done from the console (say, a human manager)

---

briefly about the problem, for context:

When the minio is running behind traefik, creating a share link in the console returns 127.0.0.1:9000 as the host.
To change this behavior, it is suggested to configure MINIO_SERVER_URL, but after that, downloading, previewing and sometimes logging into the console stops working in general.

Hi, @vanodevium this should be solved with the following proposal #3255. It's in our pipeline.
