Getting to work on Heroku?

[aendra-rininsland]

Hi!

We're wanting to try it out here at The Times but I'm having issues getting it working on Heroku. I've added Twitter API keys and changed the Procfile to web: gunicorn --bind=0.0.0.0:$PORT twitter:app (I've also added Gunicorn to requirements.txt), but when I connect I get a 404. Any help?

Possibly because there is nothing hosted at the root of the site? Try
xxx/public/index.html

As you can tell it's slapped together, sometimes confused and not stable.
When the pressure of the individual project subsidies I'll put some work
in.

Hi!
Yeah, even going to /public/ 404s. No worries though; I saw the Procfile and thought Heroku would be the easiest deployment option. Nick was wanting to play with it a bit, so I'll just toss it up on an EC2 instance and run as per the readme for now.

We've bypass heroku deploy and use EC2 ourselves now. Feel free to reopen if you want to do this yourself

If you've gotten it working on EC2, I'm happy to look at Heroku deployment. Heroku's way more accessible to a lot of newsrooms, would probably help adoption to have it available.

As the person opening this issue — if you like, I can take a look at it sometime in the next week or so?

That'd be great if you could. We've been suring up different features but @giovannic and I have struggled to find the time. What better time to implement a refactor than 16:30 on a Friday afternoon!

PS: apologies for closing this prematurely, I assumed it'd been opened by myself
