go install github.com/cloudfoundry/libbuildpack/packager/buildpack-packager
-
Build the buildpack
buildpack-packager build [ --cached=(true|false) ]
-
Use in Cloud Foundry
Upload the buildpack to your Cloud Foundry and optionally specify it by name
cf create-buildpack [BUILDPACK_NAME] [BUILDPACK_ZIP_FILE_PATH] 1 cf push my_app [-b BUILDPACK_NAME]
Testing
To test this buildpack, run the following commands from the buildpack's directory:
-

source .envrc
To simplify the process in the future, install direnv which will automatically source .envrc when you change directories.
-
Run unit tests
./scripts/unit.sh

Run integration tests
Buildpacks use the Cutlass framework for running integration tests against Cloud Foundry. Before running the integration tests, you need to login to your Cloud Foundry using the cf cli:
cf login -a https://api.your-cf.com -u name@example.com -p pa55woRD
Note that your user requires permissions to run
cf create-buildpack
andcf update-buildpack
. To run the integration tests, run the following command from the buildpack's directory:./scripts/integration.sh

Acknowledgements
This buildpack is based heavily upon Jordon Bedwell's Heroku buildpack and the modifications by David Laing for Cloud Foundry nginx-buildpack (deprecated). It has been tuned for usability (configurable with Staticfile
) and to be included as a default buildpack (detects Staticfile
rather than the presence of an index.html
). Thanks for the buildpack Jordon!
If you require additional custom NGINX configuration, use the new nginx-buildpack.
