I have one 'super' repository in GitHub which will contain several applications I would like to deploy to Heroku. Here is an example of my repository.
/app
/.git
/website <-- would like to deploy this to Heroku
When I try to push using the following command:
$ git push heroku master
I get the following error:
Heroku push rejected, no Rails or Rack app detected.
How do I deploy a subdirectory to Heroku?
This can be accomplished by putting a config.ru in your root directory that tells Heroku where to find your app. For example, with Rails 3, try a config.ru like this in your root directory:
WEBSITE_SUBDIR = 'website'
require "#{WEBSITE_SUBDIR}/config/environment"
run YourApplicationName::Application
And on Rails 2.x, you'll need something like this:
WEBSITE_SUBDIR = 'website'
require "#{WEBSITE_SUBDIR}/config/environment"
use Rails::Rack::LogTailer
use Rails::Rack::Static
run ActionController::Dispatcher.new
