pytesseract and tesseract

Hi, I would like to run an python API to use OCR function from pytesseract, but it needs to install the tesseract from google. Any idea how to do it in Railway?

I need to install a binary in windows or run $brew install tesseract on MAC to be able to use the library pytesseract.

I don't know if it is possible to install it someway in railway, or if I need to have it in a docker, and run everything from there

it looks like it's available as a nix package add this nixpacks.toml file to your project
[phases.setup]
nixPkgs = ["...", "tesseract"]
