[feature]: 🚀 Dockerfile for Railway - #9718
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds a multi-stage Docker image for Plane and Railway configuration that builds application artifacts, starts supervised services, and routes requests through Caddy. The live server now reads runtime environment variables without loading ChangesRailway deployment
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The Railway deployment can fail to start because it combines incompatible Alpine runtime libraries, and it can expose API and background services before database migrations finish, risking startup failures or inconsistent behavior. All services also run as root in one container, increasing the impact of a compromise. These current-head risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

- Line 15: Remove the reliance on the priority setting in the Supervisor
configuration as a migration dependency. Ensure docker-entrypoint-migrator.sh
completes successfully before Supervisor starts the API and workers, either by
running the migration before launching Supervisor or by adding an explicit
readiness gate.
- Line 11: Update the one-shot migrator Supervisor configuration to set
startsecs=0 and explicitly define its autorestart and exitcodes policy,
preserving successful exit after wait_for_db and migrate without retries.
In `@Dockerfile`:
- Around line 36-38: Add a dedicated non-root runtime user in the final Docker
image, ensure it owns or can access the application files and required runtime
directories, and switch the image to that user before starting services. Update
the Supervisor configuration’s process user from root to the new runtime user
while preserving existing process behavior.
- Line 40: Align the Alpine base image versions used by the jsbuild and runner
stages before the COPY from jsbuild step, pinning both to the same compatible
release so the runner does not replace its /usr/lib tree with libraries from a
different Alpine version. Keep the existing Node runtime transfer behavior
otherwise unchanged.

Supervisor official documentation startsecs default autorestart unexpected exitcodes program configuration
💡 Result:
In Supervisor, the configuration parameters startsecs, autorestart, and exitcodes work together to manage process lifecycles as follows: startsecs The startsecs parameter defines the number of seconds a process must remain running after startup to be considered successfully started (moving from the STARTING to the RUNNING state) [1][2]. If a process exits before this duration, the start is considered a failure, even if the exit code is otherwise considered expected [1][2]. The default value is 1 [1][2]. Setting this to 0 indicates that the program does not need to stay running for any specific amount of time to be considered successful [1]. autorestart The autorestart parameter controls whether Supervisor should automatically restart a process if it exits while in the RUNNING state [3][4]. It accepts one of three values: - false: The process will never be automatically restarted [3][5]. - true: The process is unconditionally restarted when it exits, regardless of its exit code [3][5]. - unexpected (default): The process is restarted if it exits with an exit code that is not listed in the exitcodes configuration [3][5]. exitcodes The exitcodes parameter defines a list of expected exit codes used when autorestart is set to unexpected [3][4]. If the process exits with any code not present in this list, Supervisor treats the exit as unexpected and will restart the process [3][6]. The default value for exitcodes is 0 [3][4]. These settings specifically govern behavior once a process has reached the RUNNING state [2][3]. Behavior during the startup phase (STARTING state) is managed separately by startsecs and the startretries parameter [2][3][6].

Set startsecs=0 for the one-shot migrator.
The migrator runs wait_for_db and migrate, then exits. If both commands finish within one second with exit code 0, Supervisor's default startsecs=1 treats startup as failed and retries the process. Set startsecs=0 and define the intended autorestart and exitcodes policy.

Supervisor documentation priority startsecs autorestart process states priority start order
💡 Result:
In Supervisor, process startup and shutdown order, as well as automatic restarts, are managed through specific configuration parameters. Priority and Start Order The priority parameter (default: 999) determines the relative order in which programs are started and shut down [1][2]. - Lower priorities: Programs start first and shut down last [1][3]. - Higher priorities: Programs start last and shut down first [1][3]. When using aggregate commands like start all or stop all, Supervisor uses these priority values to determine the sequence [1]. Note that Supervisor does not inherently wait for a process to reach the RUNNING state before starting the next one in the priority queue; it merely initiates them in that order [4][5]. To enforce strict dependency-based startup (e.g., waiting for a process to be fully RUNNING), external plugins or event listeners are often required [4][5]. Startsecs and Startup Success The startsecs parameter (default: 1) defines the time (in seconds) a process must remain running after startup to be considered successfully started [1][2]. - If a process exits before startsecs, it is considered a failed start, even if the exit code is otherwise considered expected [2]. - Once a process has stayed up for at least startsecs, it is considered to have transitioned from the STARTING state to the RUNNING state [1][6][2]. Autorestart Mechanism The autorestart parameter controls whether Supervisor should automatically restart a process if it exits [1][2]. - true: The process is unconditionally restarted upon exit [1][2]. - false: The process will not be automatically restarted [1][2]. - unexpected: The process is restarted only if it exits with an exit code not defined in the exitcodes configuration [1][2]. Autorestart only applies to processes that have successfully reached the RUNNING state [1][2]. If a process fails during the startup phase (before startsecs has elapsed), Supervisor handles retries based on the startretries parameter instead [1][2]. Process States Processes in Supervisor transition through various states, including STARTING, RUNNING, BACKOFF, EXITED, and FATAL [6]. - STARTING: The process is being started [6]. - RUNNING: The process has successfully started (ran longer than startsecs) [1][6]. - BACKOFF: The process transitioned to STARTING but exited too quickly (before startsecs) [6]. - FATAL: The process could not be started after the maximum number of startretries was exceeded [6]. An autorestarted process will not be restarted if it enters the FATAL state [6].

Do not use priority as a migration dependency.
priority=10 starts the migrator before higher-priority programs, but it does not wait for docker-entrypoint-migrator.sh to complete. The API and workers can start while python manage.py migrate is still running and access an incomplete schema.
Run the migration before starting Supervisor, or add an explicit readiness gate.

Security Misconfiguration (CWE-250)
Reachability: External · Exploitability: Difficult
Run application processes as a non-root user.
The final stage does not define USER, and Supervisor configures user=root. If an exposed service is compromised, the attacker gains root privileges inside the container. Add a dedicated runtime user and configure Supervisor to use it.

Use compatible base images before copying system libraries. runner uses Alpine 3.22.0, while the current node:22-alpine uses Alpine 3.24.1. This instruction replaces the runner’s complete /usr/lib tree with files from another Alpine release and can prevent Python or other dynamically linked programs from starting. Use a common pinned Alpine release, or copy only the Node runtime and required libraries.
