[pascalandy]

Issue Summary

I know 0.10 brought a braking change for the s3 storage https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/wiki/Using-a-custom-storage-module

I now use this plug-in https://github.com/kelyvin/ghost-s3-service

Steps to Reproduce

1. When starting Ghost

> docker logs --follow $ctnID
npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm info using [email protected]
npm info using [email protected]
npm info prestart [email protected]
npm info start [email protected]

> [email protected] start /usr/src/ghost
> node index

Here in my config.js

            'ghost-s3': {

Hi @pascalandy, I see you already raised this over here: https://github.com/kelyvin/ghost-s3-service/issues/1

I'd suggest it's a problem with either the module or how it's been installed. Ghost enforces restrictions to make sure the module you have is valid and will work once installed. Your current setup is failing that restriction. As it's not a bug, I'm going to close this. If you're looking for help getting it installed, please use the #help channel on slack.

Please note: we're working hard on solidifying the API and processes around adapters ready for Ghost 1.0, the current system is LTS, so if it needs a bug fix, it will be done, but we won't be making improvements.

[pascalandy]

Make sense. Thank you!

[marc101101]

@pascalandy do you have solution? I am running against the same problem :(
I am using the ghost-s3-storage-adapter

[pascalandy]

Sorry I give up.
I tried reeeaaly hard but at the end, I decided to mount the images folder to a storage object.

No more issues since.

[kirrg001]

@pascalandy Sorry to hear that and glad you found a way to fix it.
@marc101101 was able to fix this issue.

The problem is the following: If you have Ghost installed as sub dependency (ls -la node_modules/ghost), then the s3 adapter requires the base adapter from there. If not, it requires it from the project root.
https://github.com/kelyvin/ghost-s3-service/blob/master/index.js#L13

You need to ensure that the require path is the correct one.
If using Ghost as NPM module, it needs to be the path to the sub dependency.
If not, it needs to be the path to the project root.

We are using instanceof and this can fail, if the required file is a different one then we compare to.

We will work on getting rid of the dirty requires asap by outsourcing the base adapters into npm modules.

[pascalandy]

Thanks for the explanation @kirrg001

It will be great!

[oligafner]

@kirrg001 Ran into the same exact error but I'm not that familiar with npm and those dependencies. Could you please elaborate exactly the way you managed to fix this issue?

Thanks a lot!

[kirrg001]

Hey @oligafner Sorry to hear that.

Did you read and try my comment https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/7487#issuecomment-275205866?
If you still need help, can you please swing by our slack channel and ask in the #help channel?

[oligafner]

@kirrg001 figured it out! Thanks for your help!
