This buildpack is used for a custom connection to qunect (ODBC for Quick Base) . But you can adapt it for your requirements based on Buildpack API
In order to use this buildpack, you have to add a new one heroku-buildpack-apt . The buidldpack-apt will install you the libraries for unixodbc & unixodbc-dev.
I used this buildpack for a nodeJs application.
My buildpack list & orders:
-
My first buildpack was heroku-buildpack-apt .
- added in the Aptfile:
unixodbc unixodbc-dev
-
Second one heroku/nodejs .
-
Third one odbc-heroku .
You can configure how do you want the credentials of connection, for this example adding ENV variables
- QUICKBASE_USERNAME
- QUICKBASE_PASSWORD
- QUICKBASE_SERVER
