I ran into the same issue with **Laravel’s `temporaryUrl()` and MinIO** that you’re discussing here.

To solve it, I built a small package: [hosni/laravel-temporary-urls-minio](https://packagist.org/packages/hosni/laravel-temporary-urls-minio)

It works like this:

* Laravel still works with your internal `AWS_ENDPOINT` (e.g. `http://minio:9000`).

* But it uses (`MINIO_PUBLIC_URL`) which you have defined in your `filesystems.php` config file as `temporary_url` to sign URLs.

* The result is a valid, signed, **publicly accessible** temporary URL that works with `Storage::disk('minio')->temporaryUrl()` or even packages like [spatie/laravel-medialibrary](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-medialibrary).

Installation is one line:

```bash

composer require hosni/laravel-temporary-urls-minio

```

Then just add:

```php

'temporary_url' => env('MINIO_PUBLIC_URL'),

```

to your disk config. After that, everything **just works**, no need to duplicate the S3 driver or rely on `/etc/hosts` hacks.
