canvas-heroku v0.12.0

HEROKU Node Canvas

A simple fork just to get this guy working on heroku.

• Includes precompiled cairo modules in ./cairo

• Has a modified wscript in order to reference that precompiled cairo stuff

• Loses JPEG and GIF support ... as I couldn't figure those out and I didn't need them.

usage:

1. create a heroku app in cedar:

heroku create --stack cedar

2. set environment variables

create a .env file in your application with this contents:

LD_PRELOAD='/app/node_modules/canvas/cairo/libcairo.so /app/node_modules/canvas/lib/libpixman-1.so.0 /app/node_modules/canvas/lib/libfreetype.so.6'
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/app/node_modules/canvas/cairo

• LD_PRELOAD will tell heroku to always preload those libs
• LD_LIBRARY_PATH will tell heroku where to find aditional dinamic libs
