.buildpacksΒΆ
The .buildpacks
file is used to specify the buildpacks for an application. It is a list of buildpack URLs.
https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-nodejs.git
https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-ruby.git
When installed, a buildpack is checked to see if it is a git repository via git ls-remote
. If it is not, the buildpack is checked to see if it ends in .tgz
, .tar.gz
, .tbz
, tar.bz
, or .tar
and is downloaded/extracted before being executed.
If the buildpack is located on Github, a shorthand can be used in the form of organization/buildpack-name
. This will be expanded to the https://github.com/organization/heroku-buildpack-buildpack-name.git
. The heroku-community
organization name is treated as heroku
.
Comments are not allowed in the .buildpacks
file.
