This is a basic question. The other day I was watching a video on youtube on deploying django application to heroku. In that video they went through amazon web services for static files. When I deployed django on heroku today all my static files are working. Am I missing something here?
Yeah, they have a document up on it now: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/django-assets
Rename your index.html to home.html.
Create an index.php file with the following code:
<?php include_once("home.html"); ?>
Now go to your app folder in CMD (or Bash), and commit your code to Heroku using the following:
git add .
git commit -m 'Change this to a meaningful description'
git push heroku master

I am new to django and i just deployed my first django site on heroku.
Now my problem is that i have to change one line of code in a template installed through requirements.txt in pythons site-packages. Is there a way to upload that one file from my local environment to herokus environment and how could i find the folder structure of my site to upload the edited file?
I thought about making a pypi package but this seems to be too complicated for one line of code…
just run heroku run bash
cd /app/.heroku/python/lib/python2.7/site-packages
just one line but vi is not working on heroku so better follow this post and do ...
I have just deployed a new app on heroku for the first time.
Unlike many others I had no troubles precompiling the assets. They are neatly precompiled and placed in
public/assets. I verified this in heroku bash terminal.
However when I open the project web page none of my assets are served. I verified that the hash to avoid cache stuff was correct.
I have in my application.rb added config.serve_static_assets = true but it made no difference.
There public/assets/manifest.json (pointing to the right files) but no yml and I think I read somewhere about a manifest.yml. Could this be the problem?
Any advice on how to debug this? Or what might be wrong.
Edit
In answer to the comment an example:
There is a file in the heroku app (checked with heroku bash)
public/assets/application-7744776478cb6ee3a23dd79bfcc293bd.css
my browser asks the heroku app for:
´assets/application-7744776478cb6ee3a23dd79bfcc293bd.css´
and the heroku app answers with 404 file not found.
I solved the issue by adding the gem rails_12factor
suggested in: heroku assets not found 404
I'm trying to work through the "Getting Started with Django" heroku tutorial. Things are working when I run the framework locally with foreman, but when I try to run it on Heroku, it is failing when trying to find the settings module.
In a nutshell, I've done...
chris#xi:~: mkdir hero
chris#xi:~: cd hero
chris#xi:~/hero: django-startproject ku .
and then I create and edit the files per the instructions. Perhaps I have gotten something wrong?
in ~/hero, I created my Procfile and requirements.txt, as well as the ku directory that was created by django-admin
in ~/hero/ku I have settings.py and wsgi.py (created by django-admin and edited by me)
any idea what I'm not doing correctly?
found it after much trial end error. It turns out that I had an old .gitignore file in my home directory that ignored settings.py. Once I added settings.py to the project and re-pushed, everything started working.
I don't like putting settings.py into git because it contains machine-specific information, as well as security information. But I guess I will leave it for now, and when I have to do it for real, I can use the heroku config:set command to set up things like database users and passwords, or paths to DJANGO_SETTINGS_FILE, etc.
I'm trying to deploy a small django app on heliohost following the instructions in this post How to deploy a Django site using a different version of Django on Heliohost and also the official ones. But when I try to browse the site I only get the index of my public_html folder. Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?
I know this is old post but if you still trying django on heliohost, try cookiecutter template for heliohost.
$ pip install cookiecutter
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/rahul-gj/cookiecutter-helio.git
project_name [mysite]: ---> Type your project name here.
helio_user [user_name]: ---> your heliohost username.
The folder with project name will be created in your working directory.
Paste the content of the folder (folder + manage.py file) on heliohost public_html directory.
go to yourusername.heliohost.org/yourproject
You should see something like this:
https://krydos.heliohost.org/djangotest/
Explore the django on heliohost.
I have an existing Django app on Bitbucket and I'm able to deploy to Heroku whith hg-git. Whenever i want to run some heroku command inside my app folder i get the following errors:
$ heroku ps
! No app specified.
! Run this command from an app folder or specify which app to use with --app <app name>
$ heroku logs
! No app specified.
! Run this command from an app folder or specify which app to use with --app <app name>
etc.
Current workaround is to specify the app name: heroku ps --app <app name> but i'm looking for a way to link my repository name to the remote Heroku app name like how it's done using git.
I'm not in a position to move my app to github for now.
I'd suggest trying Hg-Git's "intree" configuration option. Set that by adding the following to your hgrc:
[git]
intree = True
With that set, the Git repository used internally by Hg-Git will be stored as a ".git" directory within the working copy, rather than nested within the ".hg" directory.
Heroku will then see this repository's config. Add a remote as suggested in the other answer (quoted below), and you should be all set.
git remote add heroku git#heroku.com:<app-name>.git
For now, the best documentation of Hg-Git configuration options that I've found is the README displayed on the project's Bitbucket page: https://bitbucket.org/durin42/hg-git
Considering heroku is looking at the .git/config file to get the app name, just do the following inside your local repository:
git init
git remote add heroku git#heroku.com:<app-name>.git
In order not to mess your repository, you'll also add the following lines to .hgignore:
#Git setup
.git/**
Now, usual heroku commands no more ask for the default app name.
