Last week I had a special task. I had to implement file uploading. Well, you might say, what is so special about that? So, I has to be able to upload huge files (GBs) in reliable and background manner. I use angular.js for the client side so I searched for a solution that has no dependency (like JQuery).

E.g. you can say what filename to store particular file under on server. Check it out on github.com/vencax/brewtus.

I have just deployed a lineman app without heroku buildpack. Maybe someone will find this handy. I have added Procfile with following content:
