PHP Extensions

Migrating from Heroku and managed to solve my first issue after migration with missing docker files, simply added them from your template for Laravel. Now I'm running into composer failure with PHP extensions Root composer.json requires PHP extension ext-imagick * for example. This is how they were defined for Heroku, how do you do this in Railway?

How do people use Railway with PHP if extensions don't work? What am I missing? Seems I still can't migrate from Heroku... Would love to start using Railway if anyone has a solution for this

Seems the extensions do get installed

copying path '/nix/store/vmwv46symgw9vq58c0k1bydirvjp1ing-php-redis-5.3.7'

So the problem is rather that composer doesn't recognise it

- Root composer.json requires PHP extension ext-redis * but it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's redis extension.
