Staging & Production Environments

The production and staging environments are hosted on Heroku.

• Production: http://batabase.herokuapp.com
• Staging: http://batabase-staging.herokuapp.com

Configure Remotes

You will need to configure local remotes to both Heroku apps. https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git#creating-a-heroku-remote

Production:

> heroku git:remote -a batabase
> git remote rename heroku production

Staging:

> heroku git:remote -a batabase-staging
> git remote rename heroku development

Pushing changes to Heroku

To push changes to the staging environment:

> git push staging development:master

Where staging is the name of the remote, development is your local branch you want to push, and master is the remote brach to push to. In other words push my development brach to the master branch on the staging environment.

Push local database to Heroku

Anytime new data is added from a new db dump, the data will need to be moved from your local database to the Heroku database.

Note! Tread carefully, pg:reset will drop the database.

> heroku pg:reset --remote staging
> heroku pg:push batabase_development DATABASE_URL --remote staging
