I can provide more info if necessary

cc @jjmachan

have you set the environment variables

HEROKU_EMAIL

and

HEROKU_API_KEY

with the mail and API key you used?

Hmm... I know how to set environment variables for an existing app. But in this case, the app isn't instantiated until I run the

bentoctl build

command (which results in the HEROKU_EMAIL error). How should I correctly set the environment variables/credentials in this situation @jjmachan?

you can set the env vars for the shell you are using

export HEROKU_EMAIL=<you_email>
export HEROKU_API_KEY=<api_key>

alternatively you can use something like to load these env var when you cd into the project https://direnv.net/ You don't have to specify the env vars in the deployment-config

Great, it worked! Thank you. The only problem now is that can't run terraform apply -var-file=bentoctl.tfvars -auto-approve because free dynos are no longer available.

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # heroku_formation.formation will be created
  + resource "heroku_formation" "formation" {
      + app_id   = "68a15430-f90d-4e2f-9723-f11a9e79d2aa"
      + id       = (known after apply)
      + quantity = 1
      + size     = "Free"
      + type     = "web"
    }

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Thanks for bringing up this issue. this is a list of dynos and dyno types https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/dyno-types you can try editing the generated bentoctl.tf_vars file with the correct dyno and try it out?

It worked! I was able to deploy the model successfully... However, the application soon exceeded the dyno memory limit - so I will be working on that for a bit.

happy to help, I'll update the documentation with this, can I tag you to review the PR ? if you give me your github it would be really helpful.

Sorry for the late response... here's my github: https://github.com/ATX24

@Sean would have a better idea.
