When trying to set up my blog to be hosted in Heroku, I set up it so I can push int Github repo, then Heroku will pull the code and deploy it. Locally it seemed to work fine with Hexo’s server, so I was a bit surprised when my blog failed. Heroku logs have shown the following:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Apparently, Heroku tries to execute start script on Hexo website, so adding the following script to package.json solved this issue.
1 2 3 4
"scripts":{ "start":"hexo server -p $PORT" // the rest of the scripts }
