Procfile support about caprover HOT 1 CLOSED

I guess you answered your own question 😉

Jokes aside, Captain is not intented to be used a pixel-to-pixel replica of Heroku, nor it's a process manager. Captain is a deployment platform.

Procfile defines two things:

• how to run your app (basically what programming language you used)
• what are the processes that you want to run

The first one is simply captain-definition file. The second point is also doable with Captain. This is the part where you answered yourself. If you want to run a procfile simply add it to your dockerfileLines in your captain-definition file. Read advanced version here: https://github.com/githubsaturn/captainduckduck/wiki/Captain-Definition-File

So adding support for Procfile means that you can save writing a simple captain-definition file like:

{
 "schemaVersion" :1 ,
 "templateId" :"node/8.7.0"
}

Needless to say, there is a ton of higher priority stuff in the pipeline... So we'll be focusing on those 👍
