you have your Google client id and key in a .env file in a public repo, please go and re-generate them

after that's done we will tackle deploying both frontend and backend onto railway properly

delete them, they are useless

okay whatever works for you

can you show me a screenshot of your railway project just so I know what we are working with

Yes, do you need the project configuration in railway?

a screenshot will suffice for right now, I'll of course have more questions as we go

I have the start command in npm run start, the build command is empty, and the path is server

I have two because I was trying various things in different

two is needed because you have both a backend and a frontend

Yes, but the front is the least important thing, the important thing is the backend and the database

because the only thing I can't connect now is that

fair enough, but there are some very big pitfalls people (including you) will run into when deploying the frontend how you have it currently, but yes let's do the backend first

do you have all the needed database variables setup on the service?

Before I had everything set up, but I accidentally deleted the railwey server and I don't remember how to configure it, that's why I have this problem now haha

yes, PORT y DB_DEPLOY

DB_DEPLOY = URL

remove the PORT variable, not sure whats thats doing there

ok

can you explain your start script to me?
npm run server && npm run api

it should just be node index.js

It was an old code and I left it as it was and added that last bit to test if it worked

that they recommend that you accommodate

okay, please make the change i suggested

ready

remove the start command you have set in the service settings please

ready

set the root directory to /server

ready

deploy the changes

[Region: us-west1]

Using Nixpacks

Error: No start command could be found

retake this screenshot please

also, going forward, always use this to send logs please

not quite the same screenshot

you have not yet set a root directory

please do that

I think you set a watch path? please undo that, you need to set a root directory

ready

retake this screenshot please

okay looks like it's deploying

Thank you very much, everything works again, I have a question about this:
npm WARN config production Use --omit=dev instead.

server@1.0.0 start

node index.js

Model loaded:

Model loaded:

Associations defined.

Server listening on port: 5849

Everything is fine, it's just that, but I want to know if it could become a problem later on.

it would be the npm thing

that warning?

it's truly of no concern

Thank you very much, if it weren't for your help I would have gone bald from stress

jaja

well we still need to do the frontend, because as it stands, you're about to deploy a development server, that's going to be costly and have terrible performance

okay, let's check it

okay after dinner

Okey perfect

If you want, send me the request and write to me privately when you are ready.

but mention me and I will come

rename that failed service to something that relates to your frontend, it is going to be the frontend service now

okey

and then a screenshot of when thats done please

But does railwey serve to build a front end?

you are skipping steps here, railway does not serve anything itself, railway is going to run your start script, and your start script starts a development server

do we use vercel?

heck no, we shill railway here

sorry

theres ways to do nearly everything, so lets get railway to run a production grade server instead

first off, do you have any start or build commands set in the frontend service?

I think if npm run build, it compiles everything with webpack

that is correct, we just have to have a way to serve those files, and we will do so like this

copy the nixpacks.toml and Caddyfile from this repo into your client folder

Client or Server?

client

ready

push the changes

ready

let me know if something goes wrong

okey

I think everything turned out well

open it up

haha i meant open the frontend's domain

working now?

the console shows that, but the link doesn't show anything

send the link please

https://frontend-service-production.up.railway.app/

it works?

now yes

haha

great!
