Even nginx has support for this: https://hub.docker.com/r/nginxinc/nginx-s3-gateway (scroll to path style section)

Also, I found a way to enable this for the people in the future who searches for this.

I found a flag that exists for this but this gem is using this in its rspec/testing files. However, it works in the code too:

config/initializers/carrierwave.rb

CarrierWave.configure do |config|
    config.aws_credentials = {
      endpoint:         "aaa",
      access_key_id:   "aaa",
      secret_access_key: "aaa",
      region:          "aaa",
      force_path_style: true # right-here
    }
end

What does that OFFICIALLY mean? If what you're talking about is just documentation, please go ahead with opening a PR.
