## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Money Printer Turbo on Railway

MoneyPrinterTurbo turns a topic or keyword into a finished short video. It writes the script with an LLM, pulls matching stock footage, generates voiceover and subtitles, adds background music, and renders high-definition vertical or landscape clips through a web UI, a REST API, or in batches.

## About Hosting Money Printer Turbo

Hosting this template deploys two services on Railway. The app service runs the Streamlit WebUI and FastAPI service side by side within a single container, backed by a 5 GB volume that preserves **config.toml** and all generated videos. The proxy service uses Caddy to serve both tools on a single public domain, securing them with a login prompt since MoneyPrinterTurbo lacks built-in authentication. The initial deployment takes several minutes to pull the multi-GB image. Rendering is CPU-intensive, taking a minute or more per video, or longer if you configure Whisper for subtitles, which downloads its model on first use.

## Common Use Cases

* Spinning up a private, always-on video generator for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts without keeping a local machine running
* Producing short explainer or promo clips in bulk directly from a list of topics
* Driving automated video generation programmatically from external services via the REST API

## Dependencies for Money Printer Turbo Hosting

* **An LLM API key** — Required for script generation (supports Kimi/Moonshot by default, along with OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, and Ollama)
* **A stock footage API key** — Required unless using custom uploaded material (Pexels and Pixabay are free options)
* **A persistent volume** — Included and required to ensure configuration and rendered videos survive redeploys
* **Voice, subtitles, and music** — Keyless and free via the default Edge TTS provider

### Deployment Dependencies

* [MoneyPrinterTurbo upstream repository](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://github.com/Harry-zklcdc/moneyprinterturbo)
* Prebuilt container image: `ghcr.io/harry0703/moneyprinterturbo`
* [Pexels API](https://www.pexels.com/api/) · [Pixabay API](https://pixabay.com/api/docs/)
* [Kimi / Moonshot platform](https://platform.moonshot.cn/) (Default LLM provider)
* [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/) (Proxy service)

### Implementation Details

**Two upstream containers combined into one service.** Upstream configurations run the WebUI and API as separate containers sharing a bind mount, but Railway volumes attach to a single service. Both processes run together using:

```bash
python3 main.py &
exec streamlit run ./webui/Main.py --server.port=8501 ...

```

**Config persistence and rewrites.** Because `app/config/config.py` derives its path from the package directory (which resets on every deployment) and `save_config()` relies on `os.replace()` (breaking direct symlinks), the boot script continuously mirrors configuration changes:

```bash
cp -f /data/config.toml /MoneyPrinterTurbo/config.toml
( while true; do sleep 10; cp -f /MoneyPrinterTurbo/config.toml /data/config.toml; done ) &

```

Storage uses a clean symlink pointing directly to `/data/storage`. Template variables populate `config.toml` strictly on first boot, after which volume edits take precedence.

**Security model.** Caddy applies basic authentication to incoming traffic while keeping the internal health check endpoint open:

```caddy
@protected not path /proxy-healthz
basic_auth @protected {
	{$WEBUI_USERNAME} {$WEBUI_PASSWORD_HASH}
}

```

`WEBUI_PASSWORD` is provided as plain text and securely hashed at startup using `caddy hash-password`.

**Port mapping.** Railway probes health checks using `PORT`, whereas Streamlit runs on a fixed port 8501. The app service maps `PORT=8501` to align health checks and prevent websocket issues by setting `PUBLIC_DOMAIN=${{proxy.RAILWAY_PUBLIC_DOMAIN}}`.
