Environment Variable Naming Conventions

RustFS uses a flat naming style for top-level configuration: environment variables are RUSTFS_* without nested module segments.

Examples:

  • RUSTFS_REGION
  • RUSTFS_ADDRESS
  • RUSTFS_VOLUMES
  • RUSTFS_LICENSE

Current guidance:

  • Prefer module-specific names only when they are not top-level product configuration.
  • Renamed variables must keep backward-compatible aliases until before beta.
  • Alias usage must emit deprecation warnings and be treated as transitional only.
  • Deprecated example:
    • RUSTFS_ENABLE_SCANNER -> RUSTFS_SCANNER_ENABLED
    • RUSTFS_ENABLE_HEAL -> RUSTFS_HEAL_ENABLED
    • RUSTFS_DATA_SCANNER_START_DELAY_SECS -> RUSTFS_SCANNER_START_DELAY_SECS

Scanner environment aliases

  • RUSTFS_SCANNER_START_DELAY_SECS (canonical)
  • RUSTFS_DATA_SCANNER_START_DELAY_SECS (deprecated alias for compatibility)
