+
+== Introduction ==
+Eden can be easily deployed on heroku.
+The initial deployment is free of cost and does not require a credit card. 
+For making the deployment scalable, and to introduce more add-ons to the deployment, appropriate pricing is available.
+
+More information can be found here - [https://www.heroku.com/pricing Pricing]
+
+== Deployment ==
+
+* The deployment process is very straightforward.
+* Changes when committed and pushed to git automatically reflect in the deployment, and the application is rebuilt and redeployed.
+
+The following script will be useful in deploying eden on heroku - 
+
+{{{
+# Choose the Admin Password
+read -p "Choose your admin password?" passwd
+
+# Get latest web2py
+git clone https://github.com/web2py/web2py.git web2py
+cd web2py/applications
+
+# Get latest copy of Sahana Eden.
+git clone https://github.com/flavour/eden.git eden
+
+# Copy and edit the config file
+cp eden/private/templates/000_config.py eden/models/000_config.py
+cat eden/models/000_config.py | sed "s/FINISHED_EDITING_CONFIG_FILE = False/FINISHED_EDITING_CONFIG_FILE = True/" > temp
+mv temp eden/models/000_config.py
+
+cd ..
+
+# Install virtualenv and postgres DB
+sudo pip install virtualenv
+sudo pip install psycopg2
+
+# Activate the virtual environment
+virtualenv venv --distribute
+source venv/bin/activate
+
+# Generate the requirements for Eden.
+cp applications/eden/requirements.txt .
+echo "" >> requirements.txt
+pip freeze >> requirements.txt
+
+# Write the Procfile used by heroku
+echo "web: python web2py.py -a '$passwd' -i 0.0.0.0 -p \$PORT" > Procfile
+
+# Create a remote for heroku
+heroku create
+
+# Choose the application name
+read -p "Choose your application name?" appname
+heroku apps:rename $appname    
+
+# Remove eden from version control and add it to web2py version control (there should be one version control)
+cd applications/eden/
+rm -rf .git
+git add -f .
+cd ../../
+git add .
+git add Procfile
+
+git commit -a -m "first commit"
+
+# Push Eden to heroku
+git push heroku master
+
+# Add add-ons : Postgres DB
+heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:dev --app $appname
+heroku scale web=1 --app $appname
+
+# Open the application.
+heroku open --app $appname
+
+}}}
+
+* Whenever {{{git push heroku master}}} is done with some changes, those changes are pushed into the application deployed on heroku.
