# Hello Build Pack
Heroku buildpack: Hello
=======================
The Hello Build Pack will look for a file named `hello.txt` in the app root and
display its contents during push.
This is an example [Heroku buildpack](#).
## Usage
Usage
-----
Add this language pack to your `BUILDPACK_URL`.
Example usage:
heroku config:add BUILDPACK_URL="http://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-hello.git"
$ ls
hello.txt
$ heroku create --stack cedar --buildpack http://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-hello.git
$ git push heroku master
...
-----> Heroku receiving push
-----> Fetching custom buildpack
-----> HelloFramework app detected
-----> Found a hello.txt
The buildpack will detect that your app has a `hello.txt` in the root. If this file has contents, it will be copied to `goodbye.txt` with instances of the world `hello` changed to `goodbye`.
Hacking
-------
To use this buildpack, fork it on Github. Push up changes to your fork, then create a test app with `--buildpack <your-github-url>` and push to it.
For example, you can change the displayed name of the buildpack to `GoodbyeFramework`. Open `bin/detect` in your editor, and change `HelloFramework` to `GoodbyeFramework`.
Commit and push the changes to your buildpack to your Github fork, then push your sample app to Heroku to test. You should see:
-----> GoodbyeFramework app detected
