Hello, is there any plan to support Azurite? I am working on a .NET Aspire custom integration and I would like to test Azure Storage locally running Azurite as an Azure Storage emulator. So far, it looks like lakeFS requires an Azure hosted blob storage and using the Azurite emulator is not possible. Thanks a lot in advance for your guidance!

Hi @Rudy Cortembert and welcome to the lake lakefs Please note that Azurite should be used for testing purposes only. You can pass LAKEFS_BLOCKSTORE_AZURE_TEST_ENDPOINT_URL with your Azurite emulator endpoint in lakeFS.

Thanks a lot! I'll give it a try soon. Should I specify any other environment variable?
I tested it but when I try to create a new repo, I still see this warning : "Where should data be stored? (e.g.
<https://mystorageaccount.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/>
)"

Can you share more details - Is this a warning or an error? Is it coming from lakeFS or Azurite?
r
It's coming from lakeFS UI in the "Create Repo" window.

Hi Rudy, I don't think that's a warning actually. It's just asking you where on Azurite you want to store your data. Type in a prefix that makes sense on your Azurite installation.
