How can I connect my personal domain to the site?
I bought the domain netrix.fun from this site https://www.ukraine.com.ua/ and wanted to use it for my site, but there were some difficulties. I do not quite understand what and where to insert, I first time connecting the domain to the site, so I apologize in advance if I ask something stupid

that register does not support root level cnames, you will need to use cloudflare's nameservers.
cloudflare has a guide for that here - https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/zone-setups/full-setup/setup/...

Do you know of any other site where you can buy a domain to use Railway data there?
you dont need to buy a new domain, im not sure how you got that out of what i said, you simply need to use cloudflare's nameservers
Got it, I'll try to figure it out. Thank you
read cloudflare's guide
I did everything according to the guide you gave, updating servernames for my domain on the registrar's site. Now I need to connect the data from railway to cloudflare?
I'm not sure where you got those IP addresses from but railway does not use IPs for anything, remove them and replace them with the CNAME you got from Railway
so?
if that's the CNAME railway gave you, yep
Yes, that's the data Railway gave me.
Should it be something like this? Or will the status also change, for example to "Active"?
you are using a cloudflare proxy so that status is correct
within cloudflare go and set your SSL/TLS settings to "Full"
done
does it work?
yea
thanks you
no problem!
I have another small question, how can I add subdomains?
the same way you added the root domain
Something like that?
not quite
- Name refers to just the subdomain (or @ for the root)
- that's the same target as you've used previously, you need to add another domain to your service to get another CNAME
- you'll likely want to have the API subdomain on a different railway service
Got it, I need that last point
This requires bringing up another service or can be done like this:
yes, add another service to the project and deploy your backend, it would make no sense to have an api subdomain on the service that serves your frontend
Yes, I understand that it needs to be connected to a servlet that provides the backend, but this is a test site, so I'd like to learn as much as possible
test or not it would make no sense to have an api subdomain on the service that serves the frontend
Just if the backend is on a different domain, but I want to have a subdomain, do I have to specify it in the Networking section or do I need a new service for each subdomain?
you do not need a new service for each subdomain, but like I said it makes no sense to have the api subdomain on the service that serves your frontend, create another service for the backend and add the api subdomain to that service
Yeah, that's what I meant. Thank you for explaining it so thoroughly
