Is it possible to configure "wine" in Heroku? - heroku

I'm new to heroku, I have an application deployed in heroku, this application needs to run some ".exe" to work perfectly.
Is it possible to configure "wine" in heroku to open these files? If possible, what is the procedure to be done?
Thank you.

I'm not sure about that, but you can use the Docker deployment in heroku combined with the wine instalation inside the Docker image.
Heroku Docker Deployment:
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/container-registry-and-runtime
Docker image with a wine installation:
https://hub.docker.com/r/suchja/wine/
Hope it helps.

No images to push error when container:push web in docker laravel heroku

I just learned about this problem so there is a bug that has not been fixed yet. For example "No images to push" when running the "heroku container:push web" command. Please help me, thanks you so much!!!
my err:
heroku.yml:
web.dockerfile:
Heroku provides two different methods for deploying with Docker that you're mixing up:
The container registry uses the heroku container:push command, but not heroku.yml.
If you wish to use this option, you need to rename your web.dockerfile to Dockerfile.web (or simply Dockerfile if it is your only image). You should also delete heroku.yml since it doesn't do anything.
Once your Dockerfile has been renamed, heroku container:push should be able to build and push your container.
Building with heroku.yml doesn't use heroku container:push.
If you wish to use this version, you'll need to follow a different set of instructions:
Make sure your heroku.yml file is committed
Tell Heroku to use the container stack:
heroku stack:set container
Deploy your code, e.g. by running git push heroku main
With this flow, Heroku will build your image from your heroku.yml file server-side.

Laravel Sail Docker Hub

I've got laravel sail which as I know is few containers (mysql, redis, laravel, ...). Is there an easy way to just pack up the whole thing to ex. Docker Hub and easly download it on production server, and when i update it on localhost and run docker push, just run docker pull. Then everything (like new commands in DockerFile | apt install thing) will be updated and working exacly how it worked on localhost
I read the documentation, but I cannot figure out how docker works and how to easly change project location (Ex. I'm working on project at work, sometimes at home and this will be much easier to run docker push when I need build source code and deploy it)
I'm keeping source code on github, and it's working for dev servers, but to deploy something I have to check all dependencies and DockerFile, .env file and other things to make it works on production.
Thanks for help!
You can use the existing docker-compose.yml and just run docker-compose up -d on production to start all containers. Just be sure to for example disable xdebug on production as it slows down every request.

Deploy NodeJS application without git

I'm trying to start on Heroku by deploying a NodeJS application I've written.
How do I deploy a NodeJS project to Heroku without github, using only the traditional FTP way?
As far as i know you can not deploy to Heroku using FTP. Navigate to Heroku's official deployment documentation

How can I deploy a shiny app to Heroku

I have a shiny app and want to deploy it to Heroku. I tried to follow the steps as mentioned in:
https://github.com/btubbs/heroku-buildpack-shiny
I created a git Git repository and put the R files into it. Then, I created an app in heroku and tell Heroku to use a custom buildpack for my app. But, I was not be able to enable Heroku websockets support.
Error is:
Couldn't find that feature.
I can't figure out how to deal with this problem. Is there any other way to deploy the shiny app to Heroku?
Have you seen https://github.com/virtualstaticvoid/heroku-docker-r?
Check out the example shiny app too. To specify additional dependencies, you can still use init.R.
To deploy using Docker, you might have to move your current Heroku app to a container stack. This can be done with the heroku stack:set CLI command:
$ heroku stack:set container
Here's a minimal example. Basically:
Create run.R file with the following
library(shiny)
port <- Sys.getenv('PORT')
shiny::runApp(
appDir = getwd(),
host = '0.0.0.0',
port = as.numeric(port)
)
Commit to git
Create a new heroku app with
heroku create --buildpack https://github.com/virtualstaticvoid/heroku-buildpack-r.git
git push heroku master
That's all there is to it.
Another way would be to deploy using Docker. I am not an expert, but it took me a couple of days to deploy an app using this soluation. Many tutorials exist and could bring you to achieving this.

Deploying Django to Heroku using a Windows machine (Production server NOT development server)

I use a Windows machine and have a Django project that I have successfully deployed to Heroku, albeit using the development server. To use a production server Heroku seems to require 'Gunicorn' which does not run on Windows.
This is not good for testing locally before deploying. Does anyone know of any way to get around this? Perhaps some way to use a different server on Heroku?
I found a solution that may help when deploying to heroku using a Windows machine. Here is what I do:
Use the development server locally with:
python manage.py runserver
Install and add 'Gunicorn' to your installed apps in settings.py.
Add a process file in the root directory that tells heroku to use the Gunicorn server. This is a file called 'Procfile' with the following code:
web: python kalail/manage.py run_gunicorn --bind=0.0.0.0:$PORT
This way you test using the development server, while heroku uses the Gunicorn server. Make sure you set up serving static files(css/js/imgs) after this, because only the development server automatically serves static files, and the Gunicorn server will need to be configured to do so.
You can run the development server locally quite easily:
> python manage.py runserver
All you need to do is specify path to wsgi script from root directory:
$web: gunicorn hellodjango.wsgi
