after linking to the project with
railway link and selecting the service with railway serviceok, didnt know about this.
i think i dont completely understand how railway CLI works š
ask away
how do i get $DATABASE_URL set ?
railway run runs the given command with the variables from the linked service set
from your screenshot it looks like you need to link a servicemissed something
please read my messages a bit more carefully, you are missing the
railway run partSolution
i manage to do it with ``
does it make sense?
yep you can do that with the shell too
ok, i'll try that aproach. thx!

windows? Linux?
macOS
worked for me (but im on windows)
so just stick with

zsh

looks like the
railway run command could benefit from the same shell detection code as railway shell
any other questions? šfor the time being i resolved using railway shell
awsome!
sorry, how do i find this?
does that help?
should be able to just run
echo $? after that commandafter railway shell? yes yes.
i'm just trying to answer @milo / salvage 's question:
about the exit status of the run command
after
railway run run echo $? and that should tell you the exit code of railway run like milo asked forin the mean time i finished migrating another project from heroku to railway š„³
aaah, ok.
