Custom Domains (Cloudflare DNS)

The following services have custom domains configured via Cloudflare:

Domain Service Type
operator.blackroad.systems blackroad-os-operator CNAME
beacon.blackroad.systems blackroad-os-beacon CNAME
prism.blackroad.systems blackroad-prism-console CNAME

Environment Variables

All services share the following Railway-injected environment variables:

RAILWAY_ENVIRONMENT=production
RAILWAY_ENVIRONMENT_ID=57e6ac32-0e86-4bde-a337-948535e27bcc
RAILWAY_ENVIRONMENT_NAME=production
RAILWAY_PROJECT_ID=03ce1e43-5086-4255-b2bc-0146c8916f4c
RAILWAY_PROJECT_NAME=BlackRoad OS

Service URL References

Services can reference each other using these environment variables:

RAILWAY_SERVICE_BLACKROAD_OS_API_GATEWAY_URL=blackroad-os-api-gateway-production.up.railway.app
RAILWAY_SERVICE_BLACKROAD_OS_API_URL=blackroad-os-api-production-3335.up.railway.app
RAILWAY_SERVICE_BLACKROAD_OS_BEACON_URL=beacon.blackroad.systems
RAILWAY_SERVICE_BLACKROAD_OS_CORE_URL=blackroad-os-core-production.up.railway.app

RAILWAY_SERVICE_BLACKROAD_OS_URL=blackroad-os-production.up.railway.app
RAILWAY_SERVICE_BLACKROAD_PRISM_CONSOLE_URL=prism.blackroad.systems

Internal Communication

For service-to-service communication within Railway, use internal DNS:

http://{service-name}.railway.internal:{PORT}

Example:

http://blackroad.railway.internal:8000

Health Checks

All services should implement the following health check endpoints:

  • GET /health - Basic health check
  • GET /v1/sys/health - Detailed system health (Syscall API)
  • GET /v1/sys/identity - Service identity information

Deployment

Railway CLI Commands

# Link to project
railway link -p 03ce1e43-5086-4255-b2bc-0146c8916f4c

# Check status
railway status

# View logs
railway logs

# Deploy
railway up

# View variables
railway variables

Automatic Deployments

Services are configured for automatic deployment when:

  1. Code is pushed to linked GitHub repositories
  2. Manual deploy triggered via Railway dashboard
  3. Railway CLI railway up command
