Configuration startup Heroku

I made this document as a fast forward start for the options you need to configure after Heroku deployment.

Configurations for different Oauth providers

Create an app for each Oauth provider and insert the values accordingly in the commands below

Enter the console using: heroku run console --remote remotename You can use the --remote option if you have multiple heroku environments tracking from the same repo

Enter the following for the different Oauth providers, you need to create an app from each provider. Replace the myconsumerkey and the myconsumersecret with the values you get from the different providers.

OauthProvider.create :name => 'Twitter', :key => 'myconsumerkey', :secret => 'myconsumersecret', :strategy => 'Twitter', :path => 'twitter' OauthProvider.create :name => 'Facebook', :key => 'myconsumerkey', :secret => 'myconsumersecret', :strategy => 'Facebook', :path => 'facebook' OauthProvider.create :name => 'LinkedIn', :key => 'myconsumerkey', :secret => 'myconsumersecret', :strategy => 'LinkedIn', :path => 'linked_in'

Configurations for different services

Paypal

Create or show your Paypal api information from your Paypal profile and insert the values accordingly in the commands below

Enter the console using heroku run console --remote remotename as usual if you have multiple environments, use the --remote option, otherwise leave it out

Configuration.create :name => 'paypal_username', :value => "api username" Configuration.create :name => 'paypal_password', :value => "api password" Configuration.create :name => 'paypal_signature', :value => "api signature"

Sendgrid

Run the following from your app directory

heroku addons:add sendgrid:starter heroku config --remote remotename

Copy username into appropriate location in /app/config/initializers/sendgrid.rb (it should be an heroku email address)

Copy the password into the value in the configuration command below and run heroku run console --remote remotename as usual to enter the console via heroku

Configuration.create :name => 'sendgrid', :value => "key"

MailChimp

Setup MailChimp and a newsletter list for your newsletter and input the key and list id appropriately in the commands below. Run them from the console

Configuration.create :name => 'mailchimp_api_key', :value => "key" Configuration.create :name => 'mailchimp_list_id', :value => "list_id"

Airbrake

Create an account and add a project on airbrake.io and input the api-key for that project/site appropriately in the configuration command below

Configuration.create :name => 'airbrake_key', :value => "key"

Memcache

Run heroku addons:add memcache from your application directory

Test it out in the console(You might have to wait a minute or two for everything to kick in): Rails.cache.write('color', 'red') and after that: Rails.cache.read('color')

This should return: => "red"
