Run dockerfile exposing 8000 port?

i am trying to run https://github.com/chroma-core/chroma dockerfile

it works on my machine but i can't expose the port 8000 on railway. the dockerfile exposes the 8000 port. heres how it runs on my machine:

docker build
docker run -p 8000:8000

186328e3-739e-42c7-9076-98f6f6efeb5d

you would just set PORT = 8000 in your service variables

if i run docker in the build/run stage on railway itself it says docker isn't a valid command

like this?

but this app wont work on railway if
1. it doesn't communicate over http/ws
or
2. needs persistent storage

it does communicate over https. i can actually show you logs that show its running on 0.0.0.0:8000

no persistent storage -- i will change that later, just trying to get it to work

rolling back now -- i can share the deployment in a sec

deployment: bd7b3224-41d2-4475-8e7b-3b25ecada779

if thats at all helpful

i cant do a single thing with that

the bot asks you to provide it incase the team needs to get involved, and in your case, they dont

here is what i see

https://chromadb.up.railway.app is the domain
8000 is the port it should be on but for some reason railway isn't opening that up

you can only access your service over port 443, setting PORT = 8000 just tells railway to forward traffic between 8000 internally and 443 externally

accessing your app from https://chromadb.up.railway.app/ works

using the https schema without a specified port implies the use of port 443

is there no support for http?

thats correct, secure by default and only secure

alright...ssl is a pain but found a hidden variable that enables it in the library i am trying to use. great work
