Sign up for a free account at Heroku if you don’t already have one.
355 |
356 | - Install Heroku CLI:
357 |
Download and install the Heroku Command Line Interface (CLI) from Heroku Dev Center.
358 |Verify installation by running:

If you haven’t already, clone the SmartUtilBot repository:
367 |git clone https://github.com/TheSmartDevs/SmartUtilBot.git 368 | cd SmartUtilBot
369 |
370 | - Create a Heroku App:
371 |
Create a new Heroku app by running:
372 |heroku create your-app-name
373 |Replace
374 |your-app-namewith a unique name for your app.
375 | - Install FFmpeg Buildpack:
376 |
Heroku requires a buildpack to install FFmpeg. Add the FFmpeg buildpack to your app:
377 |heroku buildpacks:add https://github.com/jonathanong/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest.git -a your-app-name
378 |Add the Python buildpack as well:
379 |heroku buildpacks:add heroku/python -a your-app-name
380 |
381 | - Set Environment Variables:
382 |
Configure the mandatory and optional environment variables (see Environment Variables) in Heroku:
383 |heroku config:set API_ID=your_api_id -a your-app-name 384 | heroku config:set API_HASH=your_api_hash -a your-app-name 385 | heroku config:set BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token -a your-app-name 386 | heroku config:set SESSION_STRING=your_session_string -a your-app-name 387 | heroku config:set OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_key -a your-app-name 388 | heroku config:set MONGO_URL=your_mongo_url -a your-app-name 389 | heroku config:set DATABASE_URL=your_database_url -a your-app-name 390 | heroku config:set DB_URL=your_db_url -a your-app-name
391 |Add optional variables as needed, such as
392 |GOOGLE_API_KEY,GROQ_API_KEY, etc.
393 | - Deploy the Bot:
394 |
Push the code to Heroku:
395 |git push heroku main
396 |Scale the dyno to run the bot:
397 |heroku ps:scale worker=1 -a your-app-name
398 |
399 | - Verify Deployment:
400 |
Check the logs to ensure the bot is running:
401 |heroku logs --tail -a your-app-name
402 |Interact with your bot on Telegram to confirm it’s operational.
403 |
404 | - Managing FFmpeg on Heroku:
405 |
The FFmpeg buildpack automatically installs FFmpeg during deployment. No manual installation is required, unlike local setups.
406 |If you encounter issues with FFmpeg, ensure the buildpack was added correctly and redeploy:
407 |git commit --allow-empty -m "Redeploy for FFmpeg" 408 | git push heroku main
409 |
410 |
Note: Heroku’s free tier has limitations, such as dyno hours and sleep periods. Consider upgrading to a paid plan for persistent bot availability. Ensure your .env or config.py settings are correctly mirrored in Heroku’s config vars.
