[Reature Request] Could you add Heroku support? about jackett2telegram HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @erickyun.

I only used Heroku in its beginnings, but... It seems that support Docker Containers for free. Did you try to deploy the app by this way?

I checked your repo and it seems to be failing because you are deploying the bot as a web service. In your heroku.yml you should change the "web" specification to "worker":

build:
  docker:
    worker: Dockerfile

Anyway heroku has ephemeral storage, even if you manage to make it work once your app restarts you will lose your feeds (because the database is deleted). This could be circumvented by making the bot compatible with the heroku postgres add-on.

Thanks that did indeed fix the error.
How can I make the bot compatible with the heroku postgres?

Unless you know python there's nothing you can do, because it requires some changes to the script. Only Danimart or some other contributor with the necessary knowledge can do this.

I'm sorry, but I'm not going to implement these features:

• Heroku is a specific deployment system, docker is much more widespread and compatible with Heroku and other deployment systems, that's why it's "included".
• PostgreSQL is a fairly heavy database, actual solution with SQLite it is more than enough. And thanks to Docker, persisting this database is extremely easy.
• Finally, I don't have enough knowledge in any of the previous technologies to implement them.

I have seen that some forks have implemented solutions for deployment on Heroku. Have you reviewed them?
