- $ heroku apps:destroy
This removes your application so that we can start a fresh
- $ heroku create
to create the application name
- $ heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev
to create a new postgresql in the heroku database which is an addons application...i think..but the application will not have your current data in your localhost
- $ heroku run python3.6
just to make it clear the application we would like to make in the heroku website will not be based in your localhost..it will be in the heroku database so your DATABASE_URL will > change.Looking like it will be encrypted or something.that is why we are running run python.
we first import the os to get the necessary methods
- import os
- os.environ.get("DATABASE_URL")
- you will get a foreign url like
'postgres://sahkwiwajjbmmm:40aea754da09ca490ed37e87c04aa36b931a04aa1713569561ab9d062c8c0131@ec2-54-235-196-250.compute-1.amazonaws.com:5432/d3f9jva5utjk0t' this is a good sign....it means progress Then paste it to the exports in the start.sh
export DATABASE_URL='postgres://komkrhtvhkqhpf:d1f780c5d2f7b58754ef26f4b85a8dbd6934d59cba70f8400ffca2845f5bb1b7@ec2-54-227-247-225.compute-1.amazonaws.com:5432/d6bgqi19ennurv' python3.6 manage.py server
afterward we do this in the ProdConfig function in the config.py this line of code class ProdConfig(Config): SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = os.environ.get("DATABASE_URL") and this will help you to recieve the localhost in Heroku. we then run this in our terminal after doing the git stuff... $ git add . $ git commit -m "Deploying to heroku" $ git push heroku master $ heroku run python3.6 manage.py shell this will head us to our shell where we need to create the db so as to run it right? db.create_all() exit() now we have created our database so we will need to export everything to our heroku if you had exports such as MAIL,PASSWORDS,SECRET_KEY $ heroku config:set the line of export may be like SECRET_KEY='MoringaSchool' PLease make sure you have no error to confirm if your psql is working run $ heroku pg:psql
