Puchumaldito

Puchumaldito was my first Blog using Rails 4.2.1 and Ruby 2.2.1, previously deployed on Heroku.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

• Ruby 2.2.1

  ruby -v

  Install using RVM or rbenv.

• Rails 4.2.1

  rails -v

  Install using:

  gem install rails -v 4.2.1

• Bundler

  gem install bundler -v 1.17.3

• PostgreSQL (Required for Heroku compatibility)

  psql --version

Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone <repository_url>
   cd puchumaldito

2. Install dependencies

   bundle install

3. Configure the database
   Edit config/database.yml and ensure PostgreSQL is configured correctly.

4. Set up the database

   rake db:create db:migrate db:seed

Running Locally

Start the Rails server:

rails server -b 0.0.0.0 -p 3000

Visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

Deploying to Heroku

1. Login to Heroku

   heroku login

2. Create a Heroku app (if not already created)

   heroku create puchumaldito

3. Set the buildpack for Ruby

   heroku buildpacks:set heroku/ruby

4. Deploy the app

   git push heroku main

5. Run database migrations on Heroku

   heroku run rake db:migrate

6. Open the app in a browser

   heroku open

Troubleshooting

• If Bundler fails due to old dependencies:

  bundle update

• If PostgreSQL connection fails:
  Ensure the Heroku database is set up correctly:

  heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev
