Scalingo Cairo Buildpack

This is a buildpack that installs Cairo and its dependencies (Pango, Pixman, FreeType, HarfBuzz, and giflib) into a container image.

When used with multi-buildpack, it enables subsequent buildpacks / steps to any of these libraries.

Using this buildpack

You'll almost certainly want to use this in conjunction with one or more additional buildpacks.

If you haven't created your scalingo application:

scalingo create <appname>

Then you need to configure your app to use the cairo-buildpack. In the following example, we're using the cairo-buildpack and the nodejs buildpack to deploy a node or a Meteor app, it may change if you're using a different technology.

scalingo env-set BUILDPACK_URL=https://github.com/Scalingo/multi-buildpack.git

cat << EOF > .buildpacks
https://github.com/Scalingo/cairo-buildpack.git
https://github.com/Scalingo/nodejs-buildpack.git
EOF

git add .buildpacks
git commit -m "Add multi buidpack configuration"
git push scalingo master

Stack compatibility

This buildpack is available for two stacks:

• ubuntu-18 that is the current up-to-date one. Libs are installed from the packages.
• ubuntu-14, with a legacy mode. Libs were compiled and installed via a S3 download.
