swiftwind-heroku 0.1.0

Required Heroku Addons

The free plan for each of the following addons will be setup:

• Postgres

• Redis

Dokku

This project is also designed to support deployment to dokku. To do so you will need:

• A Postgres database (See Postgres Dokku plugin)

• A Redis server (Redis Dokku plugin)

You can deploy as follows:

# Get the repo
git clone https://github.com/adamcharnock/swiftwind-heroku.git
cd swiftwind-heroku

# Create the app and set the config
dokku apps:create swiftwind
dokku config:set SECRET_KEY=random-string

dokku postgres:create swiftwind
dokku postgres:link swiftwind swiftwind

dokku redis:create swiftwind
dokku redis:link swiftwind swiftwind

git push dokku
dokku run ./manage.py migrate
# Create a user you will use to login as
dokku run ./manage.py createsuperuser
# Set currency as you wish (GBP, EUR, USD etc)
dokku run ./manage.py swiftwind_create_accounts --currency USD

Troubleshooting

Django does not display very helpful errors when deploying into production, and for good reason. However, you can enable debugging output to help fix any server errors you may see when accessing sentry in your browser:

heroku config:set DEBUG=1
heroku config:unset DEBUG

You can also view the server logs:

heroku logs -t

Note you can replace heroku with dokku in any of the above commands.
