I assume moving it to a private GitHub repo is not an option?

also, not that it's my place to say but you shouldn't be storing secrets / sensitive info in Git, even privately.

can we store the secret file as env in railways ?

we can move to a private github repo => but we would prefere to have all on 1 platform

you could do something like base64 the JSON file and store it as an environment variable

railway can only natively deploy from GitHub, so you'd either need to use GitHub or write an gitlab action that uses the railway cli.

cc @maddsua <- since he's done it

gitlab acction can deploy to railways?

yes, I will let maddsua speak on that because I haven't personally done it

If you're okay with using the CLI, pretty much all you need is to run railway up in CI
I am not sure if milo has fixed CI mode tho. It will work, sure, but if that feature is not yet fixed the cli will not wait for deploy to succeed and will exit immediately

oh ok I guess it's still not fixed

https://github.com/railwayapp/cli/issues/517

welp, as I said, it will deploy your code, only issue is that if deploy fails to go live, it will not get reported to gitlab

kinds a workaround would be to build everything on gitlab and run raiwlay up on artifacts so that there's no chance that a failed build would get reported as a successful one

some context on that --ci issue, it possible milo's code is fine and it's instead an API permissions issue with the project token

yes have similar problems

will there come gitlab support from railways ? Gitlab is superior to github esp for business which can not give their code base to Microsoft or dont want

yeah there's a bit of disconnect here as most solo devs or small team are on GH
and the orgs that can afford GL (or know about it lol) don't really need railway in the first place

I use railway for my personal projects, yes, but my org manages their own infra

can't find link to the thread

basically, it had some upvotes but the team isn't super interested in it, because they made railway rely too heavily on github specific functionality

yes i see it the same way => you are very based on github
