Issues deploying Comentario, secrets.yaml

Hi! I'm having trouble deploying Commentario on Railway.

I used the following Docker image: registry.gitlab.com/comentario/comentario:latest-ubuntu

I also deployed a Postegres database, and added the following env vars to the docker, per their docs:

  host:     ${{Postgres.PGHOST}}
  port:     5432
  database: ${{Postgres.PGDATABASE}}
  username: ${{Postgres.PGUSER}}
  password: ${{Postgres.PGPASSWORD}}

I then added a domain at port 8080.

However, accessing the deployment domain throws a 502 Bad Gateway error, and the logs display the following:

Failed to post-process configuration: open secrets.yaml: no such file or directory

Hey, are you sure that Comentario listens on port 8080 by default? Per their docs, they'll listen on a random port unless you specify the PORT environment variable.

I've added the PORT env variable, and changed the other variables as follows:

  postgres.host:     ${{Postgres.PGHOST}}
  postgres.port:     5432
  postgres.database: ${{Postgres.PGDATABASE}}
  postgres.username: ${{Postgres.PGUSER}}
  postgres.password: ${{Postgres.PGPASSWORD}}
  PORT:              8080

I'm still getting the same log error:

Failed to post-process configuration: open secrets.yaml: no such file or directory

Sorry, I totally missed the secrets.yaml error. May I ask how you're transporting that YAML to the Docker image? According to their documentation, you'll need to copy secrets.yaml inside the container. Also, I don't see any mention of support for environment variables inside secrets.yaml, but you can use envsubst if necessary, which will essentially convert the YAML with the current environment variables.

I haven't transported it -- I'm not sure how to. I thought adding env variables could work in its place, but I guess not lol. How can I create/copy the secrets.yaml into the container on Railway?

How do I do this?

Could you add the following env variable to the template? :

BASE_URL="https://${{RAILWAY_PUBLIC_DOMAIN}}"

It'll help with generating the correct installation script, since the default is localhost
