Question

I am trying to run Haskell on Heroku. I have compiled a binary app and created a Procfile as follows:

web: ./app +RTS -N4

When I push it to Heroku, it says:

-----> Heroku receiving push
 !     Heroku push rejected, no Cedar-supported app detected

Now I think, Cedar does not support rolling in your binaries. Is there any way to deploy it?

I have seen https://github.com/mwotton/heroku_haskell_demo. This guy seems to have deployed to Heroku but, it no longer works. Heroku sees the Gemfiles and thinks that it is a Ruby app and runs its default Procfile with Bundle install which fails obviously.

You can deploy your Haskell app as Node.js.
Cedar stack recognizes an app as Node.js by the existence of a package.json file.
So, you should create a package.conf as follows:

package.json:

{ "name": "project-name", "version": "0.0.1", "dependencies": {} }
