# Deploying on Heroku
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual deployment
|
||||
|
||||
This tutorial assumes that you have already managed to clone CONSUL on your machine and gotten it to work.
|
||||
|
||||
1. First, create a [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com) account if it isn't already done.
|
||||
2. Install the [Heroku CLI](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli) and sign in using
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku login
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Go to your CONSUL repository and instantiate the process
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd consul
|
||||
heroku create your-app-name
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can add the flag `--region eu` if you want to use their European servers instead of the US ones.
|
||||
|
||||
If _your-app-name_ is not already taken, Heroku should now create your app.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Create a database using
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You should now have access to an empty Postgres database whose address was automatically saved as an environment variable named _DATABASE\_URL_. CONSUL will automatically connect to it when deployed.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Add a file name _heroku.yml_ at the root of your project and paste the following in it
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
build:
|
||||
languages:
|
||||
- ruby
|
||||
packages:
|
||||
- imagemagick
|
||||
run:
|
||||
web: bundle exec rails server -e ${RAILS_ENV:-production}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. Now, generate a secret key and save it to an ENV variable named SECRET\_KEY\_BASE using
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku config:set SECRET_KEY_BASE=`ruby -rsecurerandom -e "puts SecureRandom.hex(64)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You need to let the app know where the secret key is stored by adding a link to the ENV variable in _config/secrets.yml_
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
production:
|
||||
secret_key_base: <%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and commit this file in the repo by commenting out the corresponding line in the _.gitignore_.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
#/config/secrets.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Remember not to commit the file if you have any sensitive information in it!**
|
||||
|
||||
7. You can now push your app using
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git push heroku your-branch:master
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
8. It won't work straight away because the database doesn't contain the tables needed. To create them, run
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku run rake db:migrate
|
||||
heroku run rake db:seed
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to add the test data in the database, move `gem 'faker', '~> 1.8.7'` outside of `group :development` and run
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku config:set DATABASE_CLEANER_ALLOW_REMOTE_DATABASE_URL=true
|
||||
heroku config:set DATABASE_CLEANER_ALLOW_PRODUCTION=true
|
||||
heroku run rake db:dev_seed
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
9. Your app should now be ready to use. You can open it with
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku open
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You also can run the console on heroku using
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
heroku console --app your-app-name
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
10. Heroku doesn't allow to save images or documents in its servers, so it's necessary make this changes
|
||||
|
||||
On `app/models/image.rb:47` and `app/models/document.rb:39`
|
||||
|
||||
Change `URI.parse(cached_attachment)` to `URI.parse("http:" + cached_attachment)`
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new file on `config/initializers/paperclip.rb` with the following content
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Paperclip::UriAdapter.register
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See [our S3 guide](../getting_started/using-aws-s3-as-storage.md) for more details about configuring Paperclip with S3.
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional but recommended:
|
||||
|
||||
**Install rails\_12factor and specify the Ruby version**
|
||||
|
||||
As recommended by Heroku, you can add the gem rails\_12factor and specify the version of Ruby you want to use. You can do so by adding
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
gem 'rails_12factor'
|
||||
|
||||
ruby '2.3.2'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
in the file _Gemfile\_custom_. Don't forget to run
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
bundle install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to generate _Gemfile.lock_ before commiting and pushing to the server.
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional but recommended:
|
||||
|
||||
**Use Puma as a web server**
|
||||
|
||||
Heroku recommends to use Puma instead of the default web server to improve the responsiveness of your app on [a number of levels](http://blog.scoutapp.com/articles/2017/02/10/which-ruby-app-server-is-right-for-you). First, add the gem in your _Gemfile\_custom_ file:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
gem 'puma'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then you need to create a new file named _puma.rb_ \(your _config_ folder is a good place to store it\). Here is a standard content for this file:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
workers Integer(ENV['WEB_CONCURRENCY'] || 1)
|
||||
threads_count = Integer(ENV['RAILS_MAX_THREADS'] || 5)
|
||||
threads threads_count, threads_count
|
||||
|
||||
preload_app!
|
||||
|
||||
rackup DefaultRackup
|
||||
port ENV['PORT'] || 3000
|
||||
environment ENV['RACK_ENV'] || 'production'
|
||||
|
||||
on_worker_boot do
|
||||
# Worker specific setup for Rails 4.1+
|
||||
# See: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/deploying-rails-applications-with-the-puma-web-server#on-worker-boot
|
||||
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection
|
||||
end
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can find an explanation for each of these settings in the [Heroku tutorial](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/deploying-rails-applications-with-the-puma-web-server).
|
||||
|
||||
The last part is to change the _web_ task to use Puma by changing it to this in your _heroku.yml_ file:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
web: bundle exec puma -C config/puma.rb
|
||||
```
