title: I want to deploy my text scraping program to Heroku, but the file it uses is stored on my PC
body: <p>I created a text scraping program in which the user enters a word and it searches through a large text file (250MG and growing) on my computer, but now I want to deploy it through Heroku.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a workaround that I need to implement or is there a (rather elusive) way to accomplish this? As far as I can tell, there is no way to upload my text file to Heroku as is.</p>
