Play Framework Module Manual Change

I have a module that I'm using in my Play! application, but have needed to make certain tweaks to it to work for my needs. I am also using Heroku for my host, so whenever I deploy, it runs a "play deps" and blows away my manually built lib.

Is there any way I can get my manual changes to Heroku?

For Play 1.x:

Your modules directory should not be in your git repo. Instead you should setup a file repository that Play will use to resolve the dependency. In your conf/dependencies.yml do something like:

require:
    - play
    - localModule -> foo 0.3

repositories:
    - local repo:
        type: local
        artifact: "${application.path}/local-repo/[module]-[revision].zip"
        contains:
            - localModule -> *

Then put a file like foo-0.3.zip in a new local-repo directory in your project. You can test it locally by running:

play deps --sync
