If you'd like to run your very own weinre server on the big ol' internets, this project is for you.

You'll need some basic familiarity with heroku.

Here are the basic instructions:

$ git clone git://github.com/techiemanas/weinre-heroku.git

$ heroku ps

$ heroku open

At this point, a browser has opened to your instance of weinre on the big ol' internets.

Enjoy!

It's even easier to run weinre on Cloud Foundry than it is on Heroku!

Assumes you have an account on a Cloud Foundry-based PaaS, and have the cf tool installed.

If you're not currently using Cloud Foundry, you can try out IBM's BlueMix for free.

Here are the basic instructions:

• note that you should substitute your own desired hostname in the -n option of the cf push weinre invocation below.

$ git clone git://github.com/pmuellr/weinre-heroku.git
