Here are the build logs

please share the nixpacks.toml file

what does the providers option in your service settings say? if it doesnt include rust make sure to add it

it does include rust

it knows that is needs to use cargo

try deploying into a new service

It had everything cached and instantly failed due to the same error

try deploying into a new service

Thats what I did, I made an another service from the same repo.

is rust selected in the providers list in the service settings?

Yes it is

can you temporarily remove your nixpacks.toml file?

It deployed successfully

let's see the build table now?

Now it includes the compilers

now use this nixpacks.toml file instead -

[phases.setup]
    nixPkgs = ["...", "ffmpeg"]

Oh, I somehow missed it in the docs that without the ... it discards the auto-detected packages

It deployed with ffmpeg

Thanks for the help!

hey I missed that too when you sent it

Okay apparently this is not the end of my issues… I can see in the logs that ffmpeg being installed, but I guess the binary is not in the PATH? My code can't spawn the ffmpeg process, it says that there is no such file. For testing I tried to run a which ffmpeg but it doesn't return anything. Tried installing it via aptPkgs instead of nixPkgs but the issue still persists.

well that means it's time to move to a Dockerfile

And don't say you don't know how, if you know rust you can figure out a Dockerfile

I'll try to cook up something then, thanks for the idea

Got my Dockerfile up and running and everything seems to work, including the ffmpeg. Thanks once again.

I keep telling everyone, Dockerfile is the way to go, glad it worked for you too!
