Holiday Ideas Planner

Requirements

Docker and Docker Compose

Installation

$ docker-compose build
$ docker-compose up -d

Trouble Shooting

Run docker-compose up without the -d flag to see build steps:

$ docker-compose up

Running for development

$ docker-compose exec holidays mix phx.server

Visit http://localhost:4000

Setting up Heroku

Create a new app on Heroku

• under addons, add a postgres DB
• under settings, add the following buildpacks (make sure they are in this order)
  • https://github.com/HashNuke/heroku-buildpack-elixir.git
  • https://github.com/gjaldon/heroku-buildpack-phoenix-static.git
• under settings, add the followig config variables
  • SECRET_KEY_BASE - set this to a unique 64 character string - it is used to sign cookies
  • APP_NAME - set this to show an instance name on the CMS - defaults to "Holiday Planning Tool"

Deploying to Heroku

add heroku as a git remote

$ heroku git:remote -a <heroku_app_name>

Deploying the first time

$ git subtree push --prefix holidays heroku master

Deploying subsequently (this allows force pushes and pushing from branches other than master)

$ git push heroku `git subtree split --prefix holidays master`:master

You can run migrations and other mix tasks like this:

$ heroku run "POOL_SIZE=2 mix ecto.migrate"
