How to serve a Gitbook on Heroku

I have a Gitbook repository and I would like to serve it through Heroku. How should I setup my application for this purpose? How to tell `Gitbook serve' command to listen to Heroku's port?

Thank you.

Solution

  • 1- Add gitbook-cli to your project:

    npm install --save gitbook-cli

    2- Add a Procfile to your project:

    web: ./node_modules/gitbook-cli/bin/gitbook.js serve --port $PORT
