Nice work ! I think this needs persistent storage as well for convex-backend incase it needs to support local file storage

Persistent storage has added.

Can you check the CONVEX_SELF_HOSTED_ADMIN_KEY env var?

Is it supposed to be ‘invalid’ by default?

Seems like a user is having issues with it.

Needs to follow the guide in the template page to generate a Admin Key.

Yep, just thought if we could pre generate it using a generator.

Can’t we change the var to something more descriptive? Like “CHANGE THIS, CHECK TEMPLATE GUIDE”

Or something between these lines?

The Admin Key is generated by the program inside the container based on INSTANCE_SECRET and INSTANCE_NAME, so we cannot directly specify a random one through environment variable.
And INSTANCE_SECRET is generated by the template variable function.

Descriptions updated.

This is cool! I was having issues with connecting to the backend service via private railway ipv6 url, specifically from convex clients (python client, javascript clients etc.), convex dashboard, and convex cli (I have a devbox in my railway project for convex dev) that live in other services...
How did you solve this problem without adjusting the tokio web server in the local_backend rust code so that it listens on ipv6?
I had to modify that and build my own custom convex-backend image in order to get it working.
