The Procfile Buildpack is a Cloud Native Buildpack that turns the contents of a Procfile into process types
This buildpack will participate if one or all of the following conditions are met
- The application contains a
Procfile - A Binding exists with type
Procfileand secret containing aProcfile - The
BP_PROCFILE_DEFAULT_PROCESSenvironment variable is set to a non-empty value
The buildpack will do the following:
- When
BP_PROCFILE_DEFAULT_PROCESSis set, it will contribute thewebprocess type to the image. - Contribute the process types from one or both
Procfilefiles to the image.- If process types are identified from both Binding and file, the contents are merged into a single
Procfile. Commands from the Binding take precedence if there are duplicate types. - If process types are identified from environment and Binding or file, the contents are merged into a single
Procfile. Commands from Binding or file take precedence if there are duplicate types, with Binding taking precedence over file.
- If process types are identified from both Binding and file, the contents are merged into a single
The buildpack optionally accepts the following bindings:
| Key | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
Procfile |
List of<process-type>: <command> entries |
The entries from this Binding will be merged with those from the application's Procfile, if both are present. The commands from this Binding take precedence over the application's Procfile if there are duplicate process-types. |
