Local Development:

1. Install dependencies using bundle install
2. Run local development server using rails server

Heroku Deployment:

1. Set up the Heroku command line tools
2. Authenticate using heroku login
3. Add a git remote for heroku:

• If you are creating a new app...

  1. heroku create or heroku create YOUR-APP-NAME if you have a name in mind
  2. heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev to add ("provision") a PostgreSQL database to your heroku dyno

• If you already have a Heroku app...

  heroku git:remote YOUR-APP-NAME

• If you changed migrations...

  heroku run rake db:migrate

• If migrating doesn't update your table columns...

  1. heroku pg:reset to reset your provisioned PostgreSQL database
  2. heroku run rake db:schema:load to create the tables in your provisioned PostgreSQL database using /db/schema.rb

• If you want to seed your provisioned PostgreSQL database...

  heroku run rake db:seed to seed your provisioned PostgreSQL database using /db/seeds.rb

• If you want to manually deploy your local master branch to your Heroku app...

  git push heroku master

• If you want to manually deploy another local branch to your Heroku app...

  git push heroku LOCAL-BRANCH-NAME:master or git push --force heroku LOCAL-BRANCH-NAME:master

• If you want to check that your Heroku app is running successfully post-deployment...

  heroku logs --tail
