Railway.app

It’s easy to host your Embedchain-powered apps and APIs on railway.

Follow the instructions given below to deploy your first application quickly:

​

Step-1: Create RAG app

pip install embedchain

​

Step-2: Set up your project

​

With Docker

You can create a Dockerfile in the root of the project, with all the instructions. However, this method is sometimes slower in deployment.

​

Without Docker

By default, Railway uses Python 3.7. Embedchain requires the python version to be >3.9 in order to install.

To fix this, create a .python-version file in the root directory of your project and specify the correct version

3.10

You also need to create a requirements.txt file to specify the requirements.

python-dotenv
embedchain
fastapi==0.108.0
uvicorn==0.25.0
embedchain
beautifulsoup4
sentence-transformers

​

Step-3: Deploy to Railway 🚀

1. Go to https://railway.app and create an account.
2. Create a project by clicking on the “Start a new project” button

​

With Github

Select Empty Project or Deploy from Github Repo.

You should be all set!

​

Without Github

You can also use the railway CLI to deploy your apps from the terminal, if you don’t want to connect a git repository.

To do this, just run this command in your terminal

npm i -g @railway/cli
railway login
railway link [projectID]

Finally, run railway up to deploy your app.

railway up
