Hey all,
I have several questions concerning this topic.
I created a simple blog app and want to deploy the app on Heroku. I deployed a Flask app with difficulties but this Django app is something!
I can run the app on localhost without issues. I am using the Heroku CLI to deploy the app.
- After commitment to GitHub I am trying:
(base) iMac-de-Mac:blog_application mac$ git push heroku master

Error: pg_config executable not found.
pg_config is required to build psycopg2 from source. Please add the directory
containing pg_config to the $PATH or specify the full executable path with the
option:
python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
or with the pg_config option in 'setup.cfg'.
If you prefer to avoid building psycopg2 from source, please install the PyPI
'psycopg2-binary' package instead.
For further information please check the 'doc/src/install.rst' file (also at

I am not sure what I should do with command:
python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...
are the … meaning anything? Do I need to add just this code
(python setup.py build_ext --pg-config /path/to/pg_config build ...)
with the three points? And what should I do then? I am not familiar with this kind of syntax.
I installed pip install psycopg2-binary but the issue is the same and strangely terminal tells me:
(base) iMac-de-Mac:blog_application mac$ psycopg2-binary --version
-bash: psycopg2-binary: command not found
(base) iMac-de-Mac:blog_application mac$ pip install psycopg2-binary

I do not understand this?
- The requirements.txt file is also a bit of a problem I think.
When I created the file with command:
pip freeze > requirements.txt
it was a mess with tons of dependencies and strange notes which I think I do not need. I have reduced the dependencies to the once which are written in the documentation of Heroku (a bit strange the documentation for me, really difficult for me) link: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-python#install-app-dependencies-locally
On this docs there is a list of dependencies needed for a Django app. I reduced the dependencies in requirements.txt to:
asgiref==3.5.2
dj-database-url==0.5.0
Django==4.0.5
django-heroku==0.0.0

Is it wrong to delete nearly 90% of the dependencies?
But the current issue for the Heroku deployment is that I can not install psycopg2 . Can you guide me what are the next steps please? I am not sure about the info from terminal above.
-
I installed Postgres. And set the $PATH as recommended in the docs of Postgres. But where or when should I use the command:
export DATABASE_URL=postgres://$(whoami)
which is displayed on this Heroku docs website: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-postgresql#local-setup at Local Setup? -
If you want to have a quick look to the settings.py. perhaps there is something wrong?

the Procfile:
web: gunicorn simple_blog.wsgi
- For the Procfile I have an other question: on Heroku docs it is written:
web: gunicorn myproject.wsgi
What is myproject in my project tree?
my tree looks like this:
- blog_application
- simple_blog
- blog_app: templates, migrations, admin.py, …
- simple_blog: settings.py, urls.py, …
- simple_blog
Should ‘myproject’ be the first ‘simple_blog’ or the ‘simple_blog’ folder with settings.py file in it? And if it should be the ‘simple_blog’ with settings.py how do I set the Procfile right?
If you need further information please let me know. It would be great if you can help me understand this issue and solve it.
