Deploying MyLinks on Railway (One-Click Install)

Railway provides a one-click install option for deploying MyLinks, making the process even simpler. Here’s how you can do it:

Steps

Visit the MyLinks repository

Go to the MyLinks repository on GitHub.

Create a Railway account

Sign up for a Railway account if you don’t already have one (this link includes a referral code that supports the MyLinks project).

Click the “Deploy on Railway” button

(The button is also available in the repository’s README file)

Configure environment variables

Railway will automatically detect the required environment variables for MyLinks. Review the configuration of the three containers and click Save Config after reviewing each of them.

The default configuration will get you started, but for more advanced features, you can consult our documentation on the subject: Environment Variables

Deploy

Once you’ve filled in the required environment variables, click the “Deploy” button. Railway will handle the rest, including setting up a PostgreSQL database and building/deploying your MyLinks instance.

Access your MyLinks instance

After the deployment is successful, Railway will provide you with a public URL where you can access your MyLinks instance.

That’s it! You have successfully deployed MyLinks on Railway using the one-click install process. You can now start using and customizing your MyLinks instance as needed.

Additional Tips

• Regularly check the MyLinks repository for updates and redeploy your instance to receive the latest features and bug fixes.
• You can find the “redeploy” option in Railway after you login by clicking the 3 dots to the right of “view logs” button

For more detailed instructions and troubleshooting, refer to the official MyLinks documentation and the Railway guides.
