Deploy and Host Railway RAM Restart on Railway

Railway RAM Restart is an automated monitoring service that tracks memory usage of your Railway services and automatically restarts them when RAM thresholds are exceeded or on a scheduled basis. Built with Bun and TypeScript, it provides a lightweight, reliable solution for preventing memory-related outages without manual intervention.

About Hosting Railway RAM Restart

Deploying Railway RAM Restart involves creating a dedicated monitoring service within your Railway project that watches other services for high memory consumption. You'll configure environment variables including your Railway API token, target project ID, and service names to monitor. The template supports two modes: cron-based RAM threshold monitoring that triggers restarts when memory exceeds defined limits, and scheduled restarts at specified intervals. Once deployed, the service runs headlessly with minimal resource overhead (~20MB RAM), checking metrics via Railway's GraphQL API and triggering deployments when needed. A built-in circuit breaker prevents API abuse during failures.

Common Use Cases

Prevent Memory Leaks: Automatically restart services that accumulate memory over time before they crash
Scheduled Maintenance: Perform daily/weekly restarts during low-traffic hours to ensure fresh application state
High-Traffic Protection: Monitor and restart services during traffic spikes that cause memory exhaustion

Dependencies for Railway RAM Restart Hosting
