Binary Build Toolkit

This repo exists as a framework for the compilation and deployment of binaries and libraries on Heroku.

It is inspired by (and extracted from) kennethreitz/python-versions.

Intended Design

• Flexible type hierarchy
• Flat dependency resolution
• Version agnostic (careful curation and naming conventions preferred)
• Import already-deployed sub-dependencies during a build

Powered By

• Bash, mostly
• A litle bit of Python
• Boto

Getting Started (Staging)

• Create a Heroku app and push the build toolkit to it. ($ heroku create build-toolkit-python-staging)
• Add your S3 credentials to the application (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_BUCKET and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
• dyno$ heroku run bash
• dyno$ bob build runtimes/python-2.7.6
• dyno$ bob deploy runtimes/python-2.7.6
