Deploy and Host Cloudreve on Railway

Cloudreve is a self-hosted file management and sharing system with a clean web UI, multiple storage backends, previews, and share links.

About Hosting Cloudreve

This template runs the official cloudreve/cloudreve:latest image on port 5212 with its built-in SQLite database and a persistent volume at /cloudreve/data for the database, config and uploaded files. On first visit, register an account: the first registered account becomes the administrator, so open the URL right after the deploy finishes and create yours before anyone else does.

Common Use Cases

A private Dropbox-style cloud drive
File sharing with expiring links and passwords
A front end for S3, OneDrive or other storage backends

Dependencies for Cloudreve Hosting

One service with a volume; SQLite is used by default, no Redis or external database required

Deployment Dependencies

Why Deploy Cloudreve on Railway?

Railway gives you a public HTTPS URL, a persistent volume and automatic restarts with no server to maintain. Register the admin account right after deploying; the site lets other visitors register as well unless you turn that off in the admin settings.
