This step by step cookbook describes how to deploy a Symfony web application to the Heroku cloud platform. Its contents are based on the original article published by Heroku.
To setup a new Heroku website, first signup with Heroku or sign in with your credentials. Then download and install the Heroku Toolbelt on your local computer.
You can also check out the getting Started with PHP on Heroku guide to gain more familiarity with the specifics of working with PHP applications on Heroku.
Deploying a Symfony application to Heroku doesn’t require any change in its code, but it requires some minor tweaks to its configuration.
By default, the Symfony app will log into your application’s app/log/
directory. This is not ideal as Heroku uses an ephemeral file system. On
Heroku, the best way to handle logging is using Logplex. And the best way to
send log data to Logplex is by writing to STDERR
or STDOUT
. Luckily,
Symfony uses the excellent Monolog library for logging. So, a new log
destination is just a change to a config file away.
Open the app/config/config_prod.yml
file, locate the
monolog/handlers/nested
section (or create it if it doesn’t exist yet) and
change the value of path
from
"%kernel.logs_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log"
to "php://stderr"
:
# app/config/config_prod.yml
monolog:
# ...
handlers:
# ...
nested:
# ...
path: "php://stderr"
Once the application is deployed, run heroku logs --tail
to keep the
stream of logs from Heroku open in your terminal.
To create a new Heroku application that you can push to, use the CLI create
command:
$ heroku create
Creating mighty-hamlet-1981 in organization heroku... done, stack is cedar
http://mighty-hamlet-1981.herokuapp.com/ | git@heroku.com:mighty-hamlet-1981.git
Git remote heroku added
You are now ready to deploy the application as explained in the next section.
Before your first deploy, you need to do just three more things, which are explained below:
By default, Heroku will launch an Apache web server together with PHP to serve applications. However, two special circumstances apply to Symfony applications:
web/
directory and not in the root directory
of the application;bin-dir
, where vendor binaries (and thus Heroku’s own boot
scripts) are placed, is bin/
, and not the default vendor/bin
.注解
Vendor binaries are usually installed to vendor/bin
by Composer, but
sometimes (e.g. when running a Symfony Standard Edition project!), the
location will be different. If in doubt, you can always run
composer config bin-dir
to figure out the right location.
Create a new file called Procfile
(without any extension) at the root
directory of the application and add just the following content:
web: bin/heroku-php-apache2 web/
If you prefer working on the command console, execute the following commands to
create the Procfile
file and to add it to the repository:
$ echo "web: bin/heroku-php-apache2 web/" > Procfile
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Procfile for Apache and PHP"
[master 35075db] Procfile for Apache and PHP

During a deploy, Heroku runs composer install --no-dev
to install all of the
dependencies your application requires. However, typical post-install-commands
in composer.json
, e.g. to install assets or clear (or pre-warm) caches, run
using Symfony’s dev
environment by default.
This is clearly not what you want - the app runs in “production” (even if you
use it just for an experiment, or as a staging environment), and so any build
steps should use the same prod
environment as well.
Thankfully, the solution to this problem is very simple: Symfony will pick up an
environment variable named SYMFONY_ENV
and use that environment if nothing
else is explicitly set. As Heroku exposes all config vars as environment
variables, you can issue a single command to prepare your app for a deployment:
$ heroku config:set SYMFONY_ENV=prod
Next up, it’s finally time to deploy your application to Heroku. If you are doing this for the very first time, you may see a message such as the following:
The authenticity of host 'heroku.com (50.19.85.132)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 8b:48:5e:67:0e:c9:16:47:32:f2:87:0c:1f:c8:60:ad.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
In this case, you need to confirm by typing yes
and hitting <Enter>
key
- ideally after you’ve verified that the RSA key fingerprint is correct.
Then, deploy your application executing this command:
$ git push heroku master

And that’s it! If you now open your browser, either by manually pointing
it to the URL heroku create
gave you, or by using the Heroku Toolbelt, the
application will respond:
