How does it work?

This installs libgmp and stack, calls stack setup to install GHC as specified in stack.yaml, and then runs stack build. This will probably take a long time the first time a slug is compiled, but subsequent compilations will use cached data to speed up the process.

The default behavior without a Procfile is to run the first executable listed in the .cabal file. This should work most of the time, kind of like cabal run used to.

#!/bin/bash
$(grep ^executable *.cabal | head -n1 | awk '{print $2}')

TODO

• Setup the PATH so it doesn't have to be explicitly defined (see bin/release)
• Automatically stack upgrade
