GitHub Actions and IaC - TypeScript SDK issue

Question

Hello, apologies if this has been posted before, but I am attempting to use GitHub Actions to apply my IaC config file (.railway/railway.ts) on commit, but keep running into an issue with the Railway TypeScript SDK not being available. Has anyone else successfully set up a workflow like this?

First iteration of my `.github/workflows/deploy.yaml` file (based off [this guide](https://blog.railway.com/p/github-actions)):

```

name: Deploy to Railway

on:

push:

branches:

- develop

jobs:

deploy:

runs-on: ubuntu-latest

container: ghcr.io/railwayapp/cli:latest

env:

RAILWAY_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RAILWAY_TOKEN_DEV }}

steps:

- uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - run: |

# Send config

railway config apply --yes

# Upload service

railway up --service=web -c

```

Resulting error:

```

Run railway config apply --yes

Could not find Railway configuration support for this project. Install the Railway TypeScript SDK, then run this command again: https://github.com/railwayapp/railway-ts-sdk

Caused by:

No such file or directory (os error 2)

```

Second iteration, manually installing node/npm, manually installing the railway CLI and railway npm package (included in project's package.json):

```

name: Deploy to Railway

on:

push:

branches:

- develop

jobs:

deploy:

runs-on: ubuntu-latest

env:

RAILWAY_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RAILWAY_TOKEN_PROD }}

steps:

- name: "Checkout"

uses: actions/checkout@v3

- name: "Install Node"

uses: actions/setup-node@v7

with:

node-version: '26'

- name: "Install Railway CLI"

shell: bash

run: bash <(curl -fsSL railway.com/install.sh) -y

- name: "Install Railway TS dependancy"

shell: bash

run: npm ci

- name: "Apply new Railway IaC Config"

shell: bash

run: ~/.railway/bin/railway config apply --yes

- name: "Upload to Railway"

shell: bash

run: ~/.railway/bin/railway up --service=web -c

```

Once again:

```

Run ~/.railway/bin/railway config apply --yes

Could not find Railway configuration support for this project. Install the Railway TypeScript SDK, then run this command again: https://github.com/railwayapp/railway-ts-sdk

Caused by:

No such file or directory (os error 2)

```

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
