Python buildpack

Buildpack: Python

This is the official Scalingo buildpack for Python apps, powered by Pipenv, pip and other excellent software.

Recommended web frameworks include Django and Flask, among others. 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.

Python packages with C dependencies that are not available on the base image are generally not supported, unless manylinux wheels are provided by the package maintainers (common).
