App not compatible with buildpack - Heroku

Question

When I run git push heroku master this is what I get:

C:UsersEmanuele-PCDesktopproject-mm-beta>git push heroku master

The code I am trying to deploy is just one file (it's a test because it's my first time using Heroku) and it's written in Python. I have already set the buildpack (python) but it still doesn't work. How can I solve?

Answer 1

The Heroku Python Support will be applied to applications only when the application has a Pipfile or requirements.txt in the root directory.
