Deploying to Heroku

These are my initial notes on making BrowserCMS work on Heroku.

Create the project using sqlite (there are issues generating with -d postgresql syntax).

1. Disable Caching

This will avoid the issue where files are written out and stops the cms subdomain redirects.

# config/environments/production.rb
config.action_controller.perform_caching = false

2. Configure Postgresql in production

# Gemfile
gem 'sqlite3', :group=>:development
gem 'pg', :group=>:production

# config/database.yml
production:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  database: heroku_app_production
  pool: 5
  username: heroku_app_user
  password: heroku_app_pw
