How can I include two executables?

My NodeJS project needs Deno as well (to execute customer code in a sandbox). I can write a Dockerfile to use the node image and bring in the Deno executable, but I was wondering if this can be done in the dashboard, or in via a Nixpack config change? Here's the railway.json so far

"sleepApplication": false,
"restartPolicyType": "ON_FAILURE",

}
}

Thanks. I see a build failure with this though. There's a conflict with the Deno executable. See this output.

i have updated this, please try again

I'll try this, thanks. Alternatively, can we add an equivalent of the following into the JSON?
[phases.install]
cmds=["...", "curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh"]
[phases.install]
cmds=["...", "curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh"]

you can do something like that, but not in the install phase, that also uses incorrect syntax afaik

I tried the cmd thing and it worked well! Here's the JSON if someone else needs it.

did the latest railway.json i gave not work?
scutifer
scutiferOP8mo ago
it didn't; it had the same error i.e conflicting Deno version dependencies
Brody
Brody8mo ago
can you send the build logs from it
scutifer
scutiferOP8mo ago
yes, here it is
