## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Nexus Repository on Railway

## About Hosting Nexus Repository

Nexus Repository is a universal artifact manager for Maven, npm, NuGet, PyPI, Docker, raw files, and other package formats. This template deploys stable 3.95.1 with generated admin credentials and anonymous access disabled.

Sign in as `admin` with `NEXUS_ADMIN_PASSWORD`, then read and explicitly accept the Community Edition EULA in the onboarding wizard. This template does not accept legal terms for you.

## Common Use Cases

- Private package and artifact hosting
- Proxy caches for public registries
- Release and build artifact retention

## Dependencies for Nexus Repository Hosting

### Deployment Dependencies

One Nexus service uses a daily-backed-up `/nexus-data` volume and Railway HTTPS.

### Implementation Details

The adapter waits for first boot, rotates the generated bootstrap password through the official API, disables anonymous access, and stores an idempotency marker. Use one replica and at least 2 GB RAM.

## Why Deploy Nexus Repository on Railway?

Railway provides generated credentials, HTTPS, persistent storage, backups, health checks, resource metrics, and Git-driven updates.
