Custom build command using bash init.sh

Hi, guys! I want to deploy my server via bash init.sh but the web always auto detect to build a dockerfile. How can I have my custom build command enabled? Thank you all!

You’ll see the option to configure a custom start command in the “Deploy” category beneath that.

This is deploy command, not build command, I checked it!

Ohh, build command. My apologies. To enable your custom build command instead of the auto-detected Dockerfile during the deployment on Railway, you can follow these steps: 1. Create a railway.toml file: In your project's root directory, create a file named railway.toml. This file will allow you to customize the deployment settings. 2. Specify the build command: Open the railway.toml file and add the following content:

   [build]
   command = "bash init.sh"

   [build]
   command = "bash init.sh"

Replace "bash init.sh" with your actual build command. 3. Commit and push changes: Save the railway.toml file, commit your changes, and push them to your repository. 4. Deploy on Railway: With the railway.toml file in place, Railway will use your specified build command (bash init.sh) instead of the auto-detected Dockerfile during deployment.

seems like it does not work, it pushed it on but nothing changed

Oh my apologies, try referencing this.

[build]
builder = "nixpacks"
buildCommand = "echo building!"

[build]
builder = "nixpacks"
buildCommand = "echo building!"

“buildCommand”, my bad.

dockerfile will override all build commands you set in the UI, if you wish to use nixpacks remove the dockerfile or rename it
