Play 1.x is no longer supported

Change effective on 06 June 2017

Play 1.x is no longer supported on Heroku (deprecation notice). Your Play 1.x apps WILL continue to work on Heroku, but the buildpack will:

  • not be automatically detected when you deploy a new application
  • not receive updates of new JDK versions and framework point releases

You can continue using the Play buildpack by manually setting it with the command:

$ heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-play

Support for Play 2.x will continue to be provided by the Scala buildpack.

For more information on using Scala and Play 2.x please see the Dev Center guide for Deploying Scala Apps on Heroku.
