Railpack support

[pompydev]

Railway, the creator of nixpacks, recently announced railpacks as a successor to nixpacks. Its major selling points include better caching, smaller image size, and wider version option for runtime dependencies (e.g. Nodejs, Python, etc.) vs nixpkgs.

yeah, i hope coolify will support railpacks too

Hope to see this soon !!

Adding onto this, build times are a lot lower when using Railpack rather than Nixpacks (especially with cold builds)

[pfurini]

Is this planned? Nixpacks seems using very old versions, like being stuck in Node 22 while I'm using 24 on all my projects for a while now...

And pnpm v9 instead of v10...

[peaklabs-dev]

Yes it is planned and will come with v5

👋 I'm helping build out railpack and I'd love to help with any issues you have integrating it into Coolify.

Nixpack builds PHP with the really old version 8.4.2, current build is 8.4.17, which includes critical fixes

I really hope Coolify will also support Railpacks.

UP - This is such a pain to me currently

FWIW, you can just use Dockerfiles instead of Nixpacks! I have a set of Dockerfiles which I just copy-paste for each new project, which means that I'm not bridled by Nixpacks' build times or dependency versions

[TheAleSch]

You're right, it makes it a bit more involved tho, thinking about migrating to Dokploy it lacks some features but not as bad.

[AntonioHReyes]

I really wait for this feature

This might be added before Coolify v5 already. See #9117
