Download entire directory in a bucket of MinIO

Question

Here is my MinIO tree

bucket1
|
|-dir1
|-dir2
    |-file1
    |-file2
    |-file3

I want to download the entire directory "dir2" using python API.

The only way I can think of is to download files one by one. Is there another way / API call to download entire directory?

Answer 1

If you simply need to download the files, use the Minio client copy:

mc cp <source> <destination> --recursive
