### Railway Template: Meilisync Integration

This template provides a streamlined setup for integrating PostgreSQL with a Meilisearch instance using Meilisync for data synchronization. It is designed for straightforward configuration, enabling a quick connection between a PostgreSQL database and Meilisearch without extra dependencies like an admin-dashboard or Redis for progress tracking.

### Key Features:
- **Configurable Setup**: Modify the configuration file located at `/sync/config.yml` in GitHub to adjust synchronization parameters for specific data and indexing needs.
- **Indexing with Meilisearch**: Ensures that the target index is created and synchronized in the connected Meilisearch service or instance using [Meilisync](https://github.com/long2ice/meilisync)
- **Database Compatibility**: Includes PostgreSQL pre-requisites, based on Railways PostgreSQL 16 with SSL Template
- **Bring Your Own Meilisearch Instance**: This template requires an existing Meilisearch instance, so users will need to connect their own service.

### Setup Instructions:
1. **Configure**: Follow the setup instructions from [Meilisync's GitHub repository](https://github.com/long2ice/meilisync) to configure and verify the setup.

2. **Verify**: Ensure that the required table exists in PostgreSQL and that `/sync/config.yml` is correctly configured for synchronization requirements. You might get a strange error & service crash if this is not done.

### Additional Information

For more details on using templates and deploying services on Railway, see [Railway's Documentation](https://docs.railway.app/reference/templates). To modify the `config.yml` file for Meilisync, consider **ejecting the repository** under settings.

This template is a straightforward setup for synchronizing PostgreSQL data with Meilisearch while utilizing Railway’s deployment infrastructure. Hope you enjoy!
