How to run a simple eternal python process on heroku?

Question

Python

I have two python files:
1) a flask server that handles requests.
2) a script that generates a file every 5 seconds.

When run on a local machine, everything works - the first script works with the file of the second script.
When run on heroku, Procfile runs web(1) and worker(2) scripts, but worker does not run.
How can you make it work?

Answer 1

First of all, look at the logs.
Another thing is that the problem may be in the way heroku works with files.
