heroku-buildpack-python VS pvp

Heroku also provides a platform as a service https://www.heroku.com/python

There are plenty of ways to host a server. Some are easy: - https://www.pythonanywhere.com/ - https://www.heroku.com/python

Set the latest Buildpack, so you get the fix that's not yet in the latest release: heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-python.git

I would not recommend this for someone who wants to deploy to Heroku since it looks like poetry still is not supported with default build pack

Biildpacks can specify add-ons in their bin/release which Auto get added for an app's first deploy. As an example check our the python buildpacks https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-python/blob/main/bin/release

If the calculations are done in Python, you will need a web host that lets you run a Python interpreter. I don't know of any completely free ones like GH Pages, but paid ones are https://www.pythonanywhere.com/ and https://www.heroku.com/python. Heroku does have a free tier which you could look into, until the site gains more traffic. I am not affiliated with either site.

Have you checked out https://www.heroku.com/python ?

I am currently hosted on platform.sh and am a big fan. Before choosing them, I also considered PythonAnywhere and Heroku but I ultimately chose Platform.sh because of the simple pricing and infrastructure configuration.

Dead simple to setup and get going. Heroku is another alternative.

I use a small shell script I wrote in jest a year ago (https://github.com/senko/pvp), it boils down to virtualenv and pip, and it basically solves all Python package management issues for me.

I was burned by pipenv before (naively trying to use it because a certain prominent member of Python community hyped it up, and I hadn't known he'd gone off the rails). I can find no redeeming qualities to it whatsoever, and it scarred me enough that I don't want to touch other newer tools (poetry, pdm, whatever) with a 10ft pole.

I find solace in pip and virtualenv just working and not trying to be too clever.

I pin all my immediate reqs, and if there's a conflict with indirect deps (which happened maybe once or twice), I figure out the version I need and pin that manually.

For packaging I rely on specialized tools that do just that (build, twine), and don't need one-with-everything spaceship of a tool.

I also develop in Node and have suffered much more grief by npm. I lost count of the number of times where I had to rm-rf node modules and npm cache, rerun and hope for the best.

I only use and swear by pvp.

So I got y'all a little early Xmas present: PvP, the Python package manager to end all Python package managers!
