'Deploy to Heroku' Button

[FlorenceWilliamson]

What do you think of creating a 'Deploy to Heroku' button? That would make the setup on Heroku much more simple. 😎

I use Dokku (https://github.com/dokku/dokku) for a lot of my deployments. I'm not opposed to a 'Deploy to Heroku' button, but I've never used the service.

If you want to submit a patch for it, I will gladly accept it.
If not, I'll add it to my 'todo pile' and get to it sometime in the next few decades... ;)

[FlorenceWilliamson]

I will try to send a PR next month. If I come across bigger problems I will let you know here so that you can add it to your todo pile. 😅

Do you have a logo I should use.
My suggested keywords are "python", "django", "status", "statuspage", "open source", "productivity". Do you have other points?

This is an example app.json from Heroku:
{
"name": "Node.js Sample",
"description": "A barebones Node.js app using Express 4",
"repository": "https://github.com/heroku/node-js-sample",
"logo": "https://node-js-sample.herokuapp.com/node.png",
"keywords": ["node", "express", "static"]
}

Logo and keywords are optional but I think it cannot hurt to use them? 🤔

[darkpixel]

Nope. I don't have a logo. I never considered the project to be "that big" that it needed one. It was mainly developed so I could use it in-house with a few clients that I supported. When I stopped supporting them about 18 months ago, I stopped updating the project.

...but if there's interest, the next time I get a free moment I will put some work into the project.

[darkpixel]

I suppose I could get someone to design a logo for $10 on fiverr...

[FlorenceWilliamson]

I will leave out the logo for now and we just update the app.json when you have one. It is not necessary.

[darkpixel]

Awesome. I merged the PR into the development branch along with a few library updates to use the latest version of Django. Let me know if it fails to fix the problem you were having.

[FlorenceWilliamson]

Awesome! Heroku now tells me:

Your app was successfully deployed.

😀

[darkpixel]

...but does it work?

[FlorenceWilliamson]

No, it does not work. You can follow the link for details.
