Running Phantomjs on Heroku [closed]


check out this buildpack:

https://github.com/stomita/heroku-buildpack-phantomjs

I also am able to run the x86_64 build of PhamtomJS, just stuck in my app's vendor directory:

http://phantomjs.org/download.html


In Version 1.5 we got rid of the Xvfb and Xlib dependencies.Now this should be pretty simple.

I'd suggest:

  • checkout the source
  • build a binary with the given script (check the options to build the version without xvfb)
  • be happy :)

Ariya, the main author, also did a good job at incorporating Qt in our codebase directly, so we have a tailored, stripped down Qt that does just what PhantomJS needs and no more :)


I'm not familiar with Phantom, but it looks like a binary, in which case there's a Heroku buildpack which might help you out here:
