Building Ribbit in Rails

Thankfully, switching Rails to PostgreSQL is very simple. In our Gemfile, there’s a line that looks like this:

1. gem "sqlite"

复制代码

Change that line to this:

1. gem "pg"

复制代码

We now must install this gem locally, in order to update Gemfile.lock. We do this by running:

1. bundle install

复制代码

And we commit:

1. git add .
   
2. git commit -m 'updated Gemfile with Postgres'

复制代码

We can now create our Heroku application. In our project directory, run:

1. heroku create
   
2. git push heroku master

复制代码

And finally:

1. heroku open

复制代码

That opens your browser with your deployed Heroku application. You can?play with my deployed copy.
