I can't figure out what's the reason Everything works fine for me.
If you don't have a Procfile
, Heroku will run your start
script as a web process.
Your start
script runs your build
script, and your build
script compiles your app using tsc
:
"build": "rimraf ./build && tsc",
"start": "npm run build && node build/index.js",
// ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This causes Heroku to try to compile your app every time your dyno starts, and since typescript
is (correctly) a devDependency
, tsc
isn't available at runtime.
It doesn't make much sense to have your start
script call your build
script: your app only needs to be compiled once.
Modify your start
script so it doesn't call your build script:
"build": "rimraf ./build && tsc",
"start": "node build/index.js",
Heroku automatically runs your build
script at deploy time, and now it won't try to re-compile it at runtime.
