Hey there!
I am using this GitHub repo:
https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver
for setting up a dedicated PyPi server so I can host my own packages and VSC to get around hosting them on the official PyPi servers. I get the Volume error:
The `VOLUME` keyword is banned in Dockerfiles. Use Railway volumes instead. Has anyone got some advice or guidance on trying to achieve this goal with Railway?

you would need to remove line 77 from the Dockerfile, then manually mount a volume to that location
Okay so I think that's worked… thank you so much! Just a quick little extra question, what would you recommend as the best way of uploading files to the volume? Would I just use some TCP proxy or is there a better way of getting files into Railway volumes?

its a bit of a dance, the service itself would need to provide upload functionality so you would need to juggle the volume between your desired service and the filebrowser template
I don't think PyPi comes with a built-in file upload system/online browser so would it make sense to build a simple one say in Django or Flask and upload my packages through that into the Volume? That will cause PyPi server to detect a new package and thus allow the package for download?

as mentioned, use the filebrowser template
Ah my apologies! I didn't know there was a template, okay this could definitely work :)
