在Heroku上使用Bower部署Golang应用

Question

I have a bower.json file in my root directory, but it doesn't run "bower install." Otherwise my Go app works, but without Bootstrap and other dependencies. But when I add a package.json file and format it correctly, Heroku incorrectly tries to deploy my app as a Node.js app and fails. Is it possible to get Golang and Bower to play nice on a Heroku deployment?

You can use several buildpacks in your app:

heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-go.git
heroku buildpacks:add https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-nodejs

Once these two commands are executed, your app will first be compiled as a Go one, then as a Node one.
Your Go app will then be compiled and launchable. Your npm dependencies will also be installed, and the script command in package.json be executable allowing you to install bower dependencies.
