Heroku Buildpack: Python
This is the official Heroku buildpack for Python apps, powered by pip and other excellent software.
Recommended web frameworks include Django and Flask. The recommended webserver is Gunicorn. There are no restrictions around what software can be used (as long as it's pip-installable). Web processes must bind to $PORT, and only the HTTP protocol is permitted for incoming connections.
Some Python packages with obscure C dependencies are not compatible.

-----> Discovering process types
Procfile declares types -> (none)
A requirements.txt file must be present at the root of your application's repository.
You can also specify the latest production release of this buildpack for upcoming builds of an existing application:
$ heroku buildpacks:set heroku/python
Specify a Python Runtime
Specific versions of the Python runtime can be specified with a runtime.txt file:
$ cat runtime.txt
