found the issue the document is dated so following what it has wont work based on this

https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-python/issues/45

What I had originally would have worked but i added too many curly brackets

So instead of 

 DATABASES = { 'default': {dj_database_url.config()}}

use 

 DATABASES = { 'default': dj_database_url.config()}

the docs suggest format for databases should be

DATABASES['default'] = dj_database_url.config()

not

DATABASES['default'] = {dj_database_url.config()}
