This is a Heroku buildpack for Python apps, powered by pip.
It also adds support to include precompiled versions of numpy/scipy/scikit-learn into the build. Since these use fortran libraries which cannot be compiled on Heroku, they must be copied before installing the pip dependencies.
Example usage:
$ ls
Procfile requirements.txt web.py
$ heroku create --buildpack git://github.com/Unbabel/heroku-buildpack-python.git
$ git push heroku master

You can also add it to upcoming builds of an existing application:
$ heroku config:add BUILDPACK_URL=git://github.com/Unbabel/heroku-buildpack-python.git
The buildpack will detect your app as Python if it has the file requirements.txt
in the root.
It will use Pip to install your dependencies, vendoring a copy of the Python runtime into your slug.
You can also provide arbitrary releases Python with a runtime.txt
file.
$ cat runtime.txt
python-3.4.1
Runtime options include:
Other unsupported runtimes are available as well.
Copy the snippet above into CLI.
