Gitlab CI Heroku
If you are not prepared to use Ruby/dpl you can deploy to Heroku as follows:
Look up your Heroku API key (Account settings -> API Key on the Heroku web console) and make it available as a Gitlab secret variable e.g. HEROKU_API_KEY (Please note the values is not the same as what heroku auth:token returns...)
Then add two script lines in your .gitlab-ci.yml config file at the relevant job:
git remote add heroku https://heroku:[email protected]/<name of your heroku app>.git
git push -f heroku HEAD:master
