How do I use the latest version of Deno 1.34.1 using the nixpacks.toml (or) railway.toml

Hi — 1.34.1 landed a fix for node:http2(https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/16923), which I need to use "unfurl.js" (an npm library that uses it). deno upgrade as a build command doesn't work. Can't figure out how to tell nixpacks.toml / railway.toml to install a specific / latest version of deno. This is all I want from the Dockerfile: FROM denoland/deno:1.34.1 dockerfile here: https://github.com/denoland/deno_docker#as-a-dockerfile If someone could let me know how I can update the deno runtime without having to deal with a dockerfile, I'd really appreciate it.

Solution:

It looks like the latest version of Deno available in NixOS (https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=22.11&show=deno&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=deno) is quite old, which we can sadly do nothing about - your best bet may be using a Dockerfile.

Sure 😅 :

FROM denoland/deno:latest

# The port that your application listens to.
EXPOSE 8080

WORKDIR /app

# Prefer not to run as root.
USER deno

# Copy all files from the current directory on your local machine to the current directory in the Docker image.
COPY . .

# These steps will be re-run upon each file change in your working directory:
# Compile the main app so that it doesn't need to be compiled each startup/entry.
RUN deno cache ./src/main.ts

CMD ["deno", "task", "start"]

src contains only one file for now — main.ts

Remarkably, it seems as if ChatGPT knew what it was doing.
