Summary of Changes

Hello @chrislusf, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request redefines the precedence for loading S3 admin credentials within the system. It establishes environment variables as a strict fallback mechanism, meaning they will only be utilized if no other S3 configuration is found via a configuration file or the filer. This change simplifies the initial setup process for users who do not provide explicit configuration files, ensuring a clear hierarchy for credential sourcing.

Highlights

  • Credential Priority Change: The S3 API server's logic for loading admin credentials has been updated to prioritize explicit configuration files or filer-based settings. Environment variables are now considered a lower-priority fallback.
  • Environment Variable Fallback: The AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables will now only be used to configure S3 admin credentials if no other configuration (from a specified file or the filer) is successfully loaded. This simplifies initial setup when no explicit configuration is present.
  • Exclusive Fallback Configuration: When environment variables are utilized as a fallback, they now establish the sole S3 admin identity, replacing any potential partial or empty configurations, rather than merely supplementing them.
  • Documentation Update: The command-line help text for weed s3 has been revised to accurately reflect that environment variables now serve as 'fallback' credentials, clarifying their new role in the configuration hierarchy.
  • Unit Test Alignment: Unit tests for S3 credential management have been updated to align with the new fallback logic, including clearer test case descriptions and more direct assertions that expect the environment variable identity to be the only one loaded in fallback scenarios.

Code Review

The code changes modify the loading of S3 admin credentials, prioritizing configuration files and filer configurations over environment variables. Environment variables are now used as a fallback mechanism only when no other configuration is available. The changes include updates to the s3.go command, auth_credentials.go, and auth_credentials_test.go to reflect this new behavior.

Since environment variables are now the fallback, it might be more appropriate to set the admin identity only if no other identities exist. This would prevent potential conflicts or unexpected behavior if a configuration file or filer configuration is present but doesn't define any identities.

iam.m.Lock()
if len(iam.identities) == 0 {
iam.identities = []*Identity{envIdentity}
iam.accessKeyIdent = map[string]*Identity{accessKeyId: envIdentity}
