First, make sure you have the Heroku CLI installed in addition to git.


Create a virtual environment in the directory with:

```

python3 -m venv 

```

and activate it with

```

. /bin/activate

```

You will use a gunicorn production server and the Flask Framework to build your Python Server. So you need to install all Frameworks with:

```

pip install -r requirements.txt

```

or install them seperately with:

```

pip install 

```

You need a Procfile located in the root directory. I already added it to the root directory so you don't need to create it on your own. It contains everything you need to run a gunicorn server on heroku.


Now run:

```

git init

```

The git init command isn't necassary because you already have a repository after downloading but you need to include when you start from scratch

```

git add .

git commit -m ""

```

You are ready for the preperations on your local directory.


We are starting with the deployment on heroku:

Run and follow the instructions:

```

heroku login

```

You need to create a app with:

```

heroku create 

```

(if you don't provide appname, heroku creates a random name.)


To give heroku acces to your git repo run:

```

heroku git:remote 

```

Now is the time to push your repo to heroku with(heroku will automatically build the application and you can visit it under https://appname.herokuapp.com/test):

```

git push heroku master

```
