## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Filestash on Railway

[Filestash](https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash) is a web file manager that connects to S3, FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, SMB, Google Drive and many other storage backends.

## About Hosting Filestash

This template runs the official `machines/filestash:latest` image with a persistent volume at `/app/data/state` for its configuration. The admin console lives at `/admin`; its password is the generated `ADMIN_PW` variable on the service (hashed at startup).

## Common Use Cases

- Browse and share files on S3, SFTP or FTP from the browser
- Give teams a simple front end for existing storage
- Preview images, video, documents and more

## Dependencies for Filestash Hosting

- One service with a volume; nothing else

### Deployment Dependencies

- [Filestash on GitHub](https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash)
- [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/machines/filestash)

## Why Deploy Filestash on Railway?

Railway gives you a public HTTPS URL, a persistent volume and automatic restarts with no server to maintain. Open `/admin`, sign in with the generated password, then configure your storage backends.
