Has PEP8 Speaks stopped working or am I doing something wrong?

[OrkoHunter]

Hi @ikerexxe ! It has indeed stopped working. It was hosted on Heroku, but then Heroku decided not to accept Indian cards and so my account has been closed now.

I'm looking for an alternative deployment solution, maybe proper AWS. Please allow me some time to do it. :)

Hi @OrkoHunter is there any update on this issue?

[jethror1]

Has this now been fixed? We noticed it started running again the other day on new PRs, if this was you then thank you! 🎉

[OrkoHunter]

Hey @jethror1, Yes! The project has a new maintainer @tushar5526 who revived the project. So all credits to him and his team! 👏

[ikerexxe]

Thanks for reaching out so fast. Please take your time to find a good alternative.

@OrkoHunter, is there any update? It feels like it's time for my projects to move to an alternative checker but I've really enjoyed pep8 speaks and would be sad to move on.

@xylar Thanks for the reminder! In my last attempt, I looked at some of the alternative hosting solutions. The requirements I had in mind were -

1. Should be easy to deploy changes as new releases are made. Ideally no CLI/Keys involved and deployment is triggered via webhook.
2. Should be cheap - ideally less than 10$ per month.

I discovered Fly.io as a good alternative. I spent some time learning and trying it out for another personal project. Let me block some time this weekend and try deploying pep8speaks there too. 🙂

I'm sorry to keep everyone waiting here. After several failed attempts to revive the backend, I'm opening this up for help and anyone who would like to take ownership. I don't want to be a blocker on this project. I've posted more details at #191 about looking for a new maintainer and a sponsor.

Really sorry that I have not been helpful lately to the project. 🙏

Closing this now. @jethror1 do let us know if you have any feedback!
