This is a Heroku buildpack for running a single Makefile in the heroku
directory of your project. It doesn’t do anything else, so to actually compile your app you should combine it with another buildpack (ex. python, node, etc.).
$ ls
heroku
.buildpacks
$ ls heroku
Makefile
$ heroku create --buildpack https://github.com/tomaratyn/heroku-buildpack-vendored-makefile
$ git push heroku master
...
-----> Heroku receiving push
-----> Fetching custom buildpack
-----> Found a Makefile
...
The buildpack will detect that your app has a Makefile
in the heroku
directory. It will call make
to execute the default target.
Based on Pete Peen’s excellent heroku-buildpack-vendorbinaries.
