Mind explaining what your use case is?

VishalOP•2mo ago

i have a go app and entire app works based on .yml config file this is how i deploy locally

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 \
  -v ./example.yml:/app/example.yml \
  exapp/example

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 \
  -v ./example.yml:/app/example.yml \
  exapp/example

That doesn't clear anything up for me. Why do you need to bind mount a file?

VishalOP•2mo ago

it work for me in railway as I deploy using Dockerfile but if i want to create a template how should i do it and how should i allow other users to change the config as required

FROM golang:1.22.5-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY . .
RUN go mod download
RUN go build -o app .
RUN apk add --no-cache curl
RUN curl -o example.yml https://gist.githubusercontent.com/example/example/raw/example.yml
EXPOSE 8080
ENTRYPOINT ["./app"]

FROM golang:1.22.5-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY . .
RUN go mod download
RUN go build -o app .
RUN apk add --no-cache curl
RUN curl -o example.yml https://gist.githubusercontent.com/example/example/raw/example.yml
EXPOSE 8080
ENTRYPOINT ["./app"]

VishalOP•4w ago

any plans for supporting bind mount a file something like the dokploy has

Brody•4w ago

we do not have any immediate plans to support bind mounts

VishalOP•4w ago

ok any alternative ways where i can deploy a template like this one where a user can edit the config file

Brody•4w ago

you would want to expose the needed config via environment variables
