nixpacks has absolutely nothing to do with the build when a Dockerfile is in use, they are a completely separate build process.

what is the name of your Dockerfile?

it's just dockerfile

needs a capital D

oh i see!!! it worked with the lowercase d locally lol my bad

question, did you come across this page? -

I didn't, why?

was wondering if this addition would have helped

probably would be a useful change, but I found out because you told me about it so it just never came up until now

or you may have told me and i forgot lol

now i know it wouldn't have helped, but can i inquire as to why you came here instead of searching the docs?

I did look at the docs, I was just looking in the wrong place because the deploy error came from nixpacks and I didn't have any reason to suspect there was a problem with my dockerfile

ahhh that makes sense, docs can't help you an XY problem

yeah

spent a bunch of time like "wait there's a dockerfile, what problem could there be with making a build plan?"

might be a specific error that would be worth having a specific error message for, especially because docker itself is case-insensitive when it's looking for a dockerfile

it might be, thank you for the input

have any other questions?

no that's all I had, thanks so much for your help!

no problem!
