node /assets/scripts/prestart.mjs /assets/nginx.template.conf && (php-fpm -y /assets/php-fpm.conf & nginx -c /nginx.conf) && (node cron.js&) current start command oh its for a cronjob in the background

what does the cron job do?

checks something in the db

then you want a seprate railway service that only runs that cron job

how nd why
Brody

how: create a new railway service in the same project, have it deploy from the same repo, and set the start command to node cron.js why: because its a separate task, it should be ran in a separate service
