Using Multiple Buildpacks in Deis

To use multiple buildpacks with your Application Deployment on Deis Workflow, is pretty straight forward.

As heroku-buildpack-multi is already built into deis’ slugbuilder, all you need to do is to create a .buildpacks file in your repository, insert your required buildpacks, commit and push away.

An example .buildpack could look like:

# .buildpacks
https://github.com/cloudfoundry/heroku-buildpack-ruby.git
https://github.com/gaumire/heroku-buildpack-mysql

Enjoy.
