Heroku buildpack: Oracle JDK

This is a Heroku buildpack for Java applications that use Maven as build tool. The buildpack installs Oracle JDK 1.8.0_25 and Maven 3.2.3 by default. The buildpack can also be configured to install JCE Unlimited Strength policy files and Ruby gems. If the application has NewRelic plugin installed, the buildpack will install NewRelic java agent automatically and enable it.

The buildpack will detect pom.xml in the project root folder and executes maven with clean and install goals to create the executable.

Different features of the buildpack can be configured with Heroku config vars. Config vars can be set using the Heroku CLI:

$ heroku config:set VAR="value"

  JCE="true" will download and apply the JCE Unlimited Strength policy files
• GEMS: Ruby gems
  GEMS="sass compass" will install sass and compass Ruby gems
  (gems are only available at slug compilation time)
