Deployment of a PostgreSQL Database in Heroku

This is how was created the database for Automation Cell in Heroku-Postgres.

Is written as instructions in order to replicate the process if necessary:

1 Set a Postgres Database

1. Create a new Heroku app.
2. Add a PostgreSQL database:
   • Navigate to the Resources tab in the header of your newly created app's dahsboard.
   • Then type Heroku Postgres into the Add-ons search field.When shown, select the suggested Heroku Postgres add-on from the dropdown.
   • The next popup asks you to choose a pricing plan for the database. Select the Hobby Dev - Free plan and click Provision.
3. Access the database credentials (and connection URL)
   • Navigate to the Resources tab in your app's dashboard again and select the Heroku Postgres resource.
   • Now select the Settings tab in the header of that screen.
   • Here, you can click the View Credentials button to see the credentials of your PostgreSQL database.

2 Configure Heroku CLI

The Heroku Command Line Interface (CLI) makes it easy to create and manage your Heroku apps directly from the terminal. It’s an essential part of using Heroku.

• In case you dont have installed follow the instructons from Heroku site](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli)
• Login in your terminal.

   heroku login
  

• To test the conection you should introduce credentials:

   heroku pg:psql postgresql-solid-19555 --app name_app
  

  

3. Write a Postgres script to create the database schema.

According to ER diagmam write the sentences to create the database schema. ➡️ create_schema.sql

4. Send database schemas to Heroku from terminal

• Introduce the sentences to create the database tables:

heroku pg:psql --app automation-db < create_schema.sql 

Here you have a database in Heroku and it's ready to store data.
