# Deploy and Host Cloudreve on Railway

[Cloudreve](https://github.com/cloudreve/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

- [Cloudreve on GitHub](https://github.com/cloudreve/cloudreve)
- [Documentation](https://docs.cloudreve.org)
- [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/cloudreve/cloudreve)

## 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.
