`/bin/sh -ecx \"exec openfga run --datastore-engine postgres --datastore-uri $OPENFGA_DATASTORE_URI\"`

I tried this as custom startup command but it fails to start

did this based on https://docs.railway.com/guides/start-command

hi, you can’t run extra commands after startup on railway directly, but you can stitch them into your start command or use a postdeploy script in railway.json. for example:

{

"start": "/bin/sh -ecx \"openfga migrate --datastore-engine postgres --datastore-uri $OPENFGA_DATASTORE_URI && exec openfga run --datastore-engine postgres --datastore-uri $OPENFGA_DATASTORE_URI\""

}

then redeploy and it’ll migrate first, then start the server.

I configured with:

pre-deploy command: ./openfga migrate

custom start command: ./openfga run

Hey,

Do you think you could take a look at our best practices page and update your template accordingly?

https://docs.railway.com/guides/templates-best-practices

Sure! Looking at the list, it seems I missed describing the input variable for authentication. Is there anything else I missed?

• Template and Service Icons
• Naming Conventions
• Health Checks

• I changed the name to OpenFGA
• Documented the variable to configure for authentication
• Added health check
• The icon seems to be fine (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openfga/community/refs/heads/main/brand-assets/icon/color/openfga-icon-color.svg)
• The service name

The OpenFGA service does not have an icon at this time.

That Worked, Thank you

Thanks, I found how to change it (not super obvious :)). Let me know if if looks good

Looks like it is missing a health check?

Should be ready now

Awsome.

Thank you for the template, and thank you for putting up with all my nits!
