what's the stack? if you are using docker, did you copy the public folder?

nestjs+prisma+mysql
Yes am using docker and i didnt copy the public folder.
How can i add it please ?

can you post your dockerfile?

in nextjs you would do something like:

COPY --from=installer /app/public ./public

but it depends how did you build your image

the Docker am taking about is that of railway.
i didnt use a third party to manage file upload. i did a custom file upload

how do you upload the images? usually you use services like S3/ R2/ etc...and then you use the url pointing to the image, can you share a screenshot of the network tab for the image that are failing? maybe you need to update the cors for the bucket you are using?

I am not sure about your exact case, but from my understanding, you are uploading an image to your server folder and want to make it publicly accessible.
If that is the case, then yes, it is possible.

I have implemented a similar approach for handling temporary files in some of my servers using NestJS.

Here is how I did it:

1. I created a temp folder and added a .gitkeep file inside it so that the folder is tracked but remains empty in Git.

2. In app.module.ts (or main.module.ts), I imported the following:

ServeStaticModule.forRoot({
  rootPath: join(__dirname, '..', 'src/assets/temp-files'),
}),

3. I used fs (import fs from 'fs') to save and read files.

4. For public APIs, based on the route/path, you can read the file and return it in the response.

I hope this helps you.
