rails4 部署到heroku 全

Ruby on Rails is a popular web framework written in Ruby. This guide covers using Rails 4 on Heroku, running previous versions of Rails on Heroku see Getting Started with Rails 3.x on Heroku.

If you are already familiar with Heroku and Rails, reference the simplified Rails 4 on Heroku guide instead. For general information on how to develop and architect apps for use on Heroku, see Architecting Applications for Heroku.

For this guide you will need:

• Basic Ruby/Rails knowledge
• Locally installed version of Ruby, Rubygems, Bundler, and Rails 4+
• Basic Git knowledge
• A Heroku user account: Signup is free and instant

If you have questions about Ruby on Heroku, consider discussing it in the Ruby on Heroku forums.

Local Workstation Setup

First, install the Heroku Toolbelt on your local workstation.

Download Heroku Toolbelt for...

This ensures that you have access to the Heroku command-line client, Foreman, and the Git revision control system. You will also need Ruby and Rails installed.

Once installed, you’ll have access to the heroku command from your command shell. Log in using the email address and password you used when creating your Heroku account:

Note that $ symbol before commands indicates they should be run on the command line, prompt, or terminal with appropriate permissions. Do not copy the $ symbol.

$ heroku login
Enter your Heroku credentials.
Email: schneems@example.com
Password:
Could not find an existing public key.
Would you like to generate one? [Yn]
Generating new SSH public key.
Uploading ssh public key /Users/adam/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Press enter at the prompt to upload your existing ssh key or create a new one, used for pushing code later on.

Write your App

To run on Heroku your app must be configured to use the Postgres database, have all dependencies declared in yourGemfile, and have the rails_12factor gem in the production group of your Gemfile

You may be starting from an existing app, if so upgrade to Rails 4before continuing. If not, a vanilla Rails 4 app will serve as a suitable sample app. To build a new app make sure that you’re using the Rails 4.x using $ rails -v. You can get the new version of rails by running,

$ gem install rails --no-ri --no-rdoc
Successfully installed rails-4.1.0
1 gem installed

Then create a new app:

$ rails new myapp --database=postgresql

Once finished change your directory to the newly created Rails app

$ cd myapp

If you experience problems or get stuck with this tutorial, your questions may be answered in a later part of this document. Once you experience a problem try reading through the entire document and then going back to your issue. It can also be useful to review your previous steps to ensure they all executed correctly.

Note: If your rails commands hang for any reason it may be a result of running spring. You can stop spring by running

$ spring stop
Spring stopped.

Rails 4 no longer has a static index page in production. When you’re using a new app, there will not be a root page in production, so we need to create one. We will first create a controller called welcome for our home page to live:

$ rails generate controller welcome

Next we’ll add an index page.

In file app/views/welcome/index.html.erb write:

<h2>Hello World</h2>
<p>
  The time is now: <%= Time.now %>
</p>

Now we need to have Rails route to this action. We’ll editconfig/routes.rb to set the index page to our new method:

In file config/routes.rb, on line 2 add:

  root 'welcome#index'

You can verify that the page is there by running your server:

$ rails server

And visiting http://localhost:3000 in your browser. If you do not see the page, use the logs that are output to your server to debug.

Heroku gems

Heroku integration has previously relied on using the Rails plugin system, which has been removed from Rails 4. To enable features such as static asset serving and logging on Heroku please addrails_12factor gem to your Gemfile.

At the end of Gemfile add:

gem 'rails_12factor', group: :production

Then run:

$ bundle install

We talk more about Rails integration on our Ruby Support page.

Use Postgres

We highly recommend using PostgreSQL during development. Maintaining parity between your development and deployment environments prevents subtle bugs from being introduced because of differences between your environments. Install Postgres locally now if it is not already on your system.

If you did not specify postgresql while creating your app (using --database=postgresql) you will need to add the pg gem to your Rails project. Edit your Gemfile and change this line:

gem 'sqlite3'

To this:

gem 'pg'

You can get more information on why this change is needed and how to configure your app to run postgres locally see why you cannot use Sqlite3 on Heroku.

In addition to using the pg gem, you’ll also need to ensure theconfig/database.yml is using the postgresql adapter.

You will also need to remove the username field in your database.yml if there is one so:

In file config/database.yml remove:

username: myapp

This line tells rails that the database myapp_development should be run under a role of myapp. Since you likely don’t have this role in your database we will remove it. With the line removed, Rails will try to access the database as a user who is currently logged into the computer.

The development section of your config/database.yml file should look something like this:

$ cat config/database.yml
# PostgreSQL. Versions 8.2 and up are supported.
#
# Install the pg driver:
#   gem install pg
# On OS X with Homebrew:
#   gem install pg -- --with-pg-config=/usr/local/bin/pg_config
# On OS X with MacPorts:
#   gem install pg -- --with-pg-config=/opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/pg_config
# On Windows:
#   gem install pg
#       Choose the win32 build.
#       Install PostgreSQL and put its /bin directory on your path.
#
# Configure Using Gemfile
# gem 'pg'
#
default: &default
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: unicode
  # For details on connection pooling, see rails configuration guide
  # http://guides.rubyonrails.org/configuring.html#database-pooling
  pool: 5

Be careful here, if you omit the sql at the end of postgresql your application will not work.

Now re-install your dependencies (to generate a new Gemfile.lock):

$ bundle install

Specify Ruby version in app

Rails 4 requires Ruby 1.9.3 or above. Heroku has a recent version of Ruby installed, however you can specify an exact version by using theruby DSL in your Gemfile. For this guide we’ll be using Ruby 2.1.1 so add this to your Gemfile:

At the end of Gemfile add:

ruby "2.1.1"

You should also be running the same version of Ruby locally. You can verify by running $ ruby -v. You can get more information on specifying your Ruby version on Heroku here.

Store your App in Git

Heroku relies on git, a distributed source control managment tool, for deploying your project. If your project is not already in git first verify that git is on your system:

$ git --help
usage: git [--version] [--help] [-c name=value]
           [--exec-path[=<path>]] [--html-path] [--man-path] [--info-path]
           [-p|--paginate|--no-pager] [--no-replace-objects] [--bare]
           [--git-dir=<path>] [--work-tree=<path>] [--namespace=<name>]
           <command> [<args>]

The most commonly used git commands are:
   add        Add file contents to the index
   bisect     Find by binary search the change that introduced a bug
   branch     List, create, or delete branches

If you don’t see any output or get command not found you will need to install it on your system, verify that the Heroku toolbelt is installed.

Once you’ve verified that git works, first make sure you are in your Rails app directory by running:

$ ls

The output should look like this:

$ ls
Gemfile
Gemfile.lock
README.rdoc
Rakefile
app
bin
config
config.ru
db
lib
log
public
test
tmp
vendor

Now run these commands in your Rails app directory to initialize and commit your code to git:

$ git init
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "init"

You can verify everything was committed correctly by running:

$ git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit, working directory clean

Now that your application is committed to git you can deploy to Heroku.

Deploy your application to Heroku

Make sure you are in the directory that contains your Rails app, then create an app on Heroku:

$ heroku create
Creating warm-wave-1943... done, stack is cedar
http://warm-wave-1943.herokuapp.com/ | git@heroku.com:warm-wave-1943.git
Git remote heroku added

You can verify that the remote was added to your project by running

$ git config -e

If you see fatal: not in a git directory then you are likely not in the correct directory. Otherwise you may deploy your code. After you deploy your code, you will need to migrate your database, make sure it is properly scaled and use logs to debug any issues that come up.

Deploy your code:

$ git push heroku master
Initializing repository, done.

It is always a good idea to check to see if there are any warnings or errors in the output. If everything went well you can migrate your database.

Migrate your database

If you are using the database in your application you need to manually migrate the database by running:

$ heroku run rake db:migrate

Any commands after the heroku run will be executed on a Heroku dyno.

Visit your application

You’ve deployed your code to Heroku. You can now instruct Heroku to execute a process type. Heroku does this by running the associated command in a dyno - a lightweight container which is the basic unit of composition on Heroku.

Let’s ensure we have one dyno running the web process type:

$ heroku ps:scale web=1

You can check the state of the app’s dynos. The heroku ps command lists the running dynos of your application:

$ heroku ps
=== web (1X): `bin/rails server -p $PORT -e $RAILS_ENV`
web.1: starting 2014/04/17 12:54:20 (~ 3s ago)

Here, one dyno is running.

We can now visit the app in our browser with heroku open.

$ heroku open
Opening warm-wave-1943... done

You should now see the “Hello World” text we inserted above.

Heroku gives you a default web url for simplicty while you are developing. When you are ready to scale up and use Heroku for production you can add your own Custom Domain.

View the logs

If you run into any problems getting your app to perform properly, you will need to check the logs.

You can view information about your running app using one of thelogging commands, heroku logs:

You can also get the full stream of logs by running the logs command with the --tail flag option like this:

$ heroku logs --tail

Dyno sleeping and scaling

Having only a single web dyno running will result in the dyno going to sleep after one hour of inactivity. This causes a delay of a few seconds for the first request upon waking. Subsequent requests will perform normally.

To avoid this, you can scale to more than one web dyno. For example:

$ heroku ps:scale web=2

For each application, Heroku provides 750 free dyno-hours. Running your app at 2 dynos would exceed this free, monthly allowance, so let’s scale back:

$ heroku ps:scale web=1

Console

Heroku allows you to run commands in a one-off dyno - scripts and applications that only need to be executed when needed - using theheroku run command. Use this to launch a Rails console process attached to your local terminal for experimenting in your app’s environment:

$ heroku run rails console
irb(main):001:0> puts 1+1
2

Rake

Rake can be run as an attached process exactly like the console:

$ heroku run rake db:migrate

Webserver

By default, your app’s web process runs rails server, which usesWebrick. This is fine for testing, but for production apps you’ll want to switch to a more robust webserver. On Cedar, we recommend Unicorn as the webserver. Regardless of the webserver you choose, production apps should always specify the webserver explicitly in the Procfile.

First, add Unicorn to your application Gemfile:

At the end of Gemfile add:

gem 'unicorn'

Then run

$ bundle install

Now you are ready to configure your app to use Unicorn.

Create a configuration file for Unicorn at config/unicorn.rb:

$ touch config/unicorn.rb

Now we’re going to add Unicorn specific configuration options, that we explain in detail in Heroku’s Unicorn documentation:

In file config/unicorn.rb write:

worker_processes Integer(ENV["WEB_CONCURRENCY"] || 3)
timeout 15
preload_app true

before_fork do |server, worker|
  Signal.trap 'TERM' do
    puts 'Unicorn master intercepting TERM and sending myself QUIT instead'
    Process.kill 'QUIT', Process.pid
  end

  defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and
    ActiveRecord::Base.connection.disconnect!
end

after_fork do |server, worker|
  Signal.trap 'TERM' do
    puts 'Unicorn worker intercepting TERM and doing nothing. Wait for master to send QUIT'
  end

  defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and
    ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection
end

This default configuration assumes a standard Rails app with Active Record. You should get acquainted with the different options in the official Unicorn documentation.

Finally you will need to tell Heroku how to run your Rails app by creating a Procfile in the root of your application directory.

Procfile

Change the command used to launch your web process by creating a file called Procfile and entering this:

In file Procfile write:

web: bundle exec unicorn -p $PORT -c ./config/unicorn.rb

Note: The case of Procfile matters, the first letter must be uppercase.

Set the RACK_ENV to development in your environment and a PORT to connect to. Before pushing to Heroku you’ll want to test with theRACK_ENV set to production since this is the enviroment your Heroku app will run in.

$ echo "RACK_ENV=development" >> .env
$ echo "PORT=3000" >> .env

You’ll also want to add .env to your .gitignore since this is for local enviroment setup.

$ echo ".env" >> .gitignore
$ git add .gitignore
$ git commit -m "add .env to .gitignore"

Test your Procfile locally using Foreman:

$ gem install foreman

You can now start your web server by running

$ foreman start
18:24:56 web.1  | I, [2013-03-13T18:24:56.885046 #18793]  INFO -- : listening on addr=0.0.0.0:5000 fd=7
18:24:56 web.1  | I, [2013-03-13T18:24:56.885140 #18793]  INFO -- : worker=0 spawning...
18:24:56 web.1  | I, [2013-03-13T18:24:56.885680 #18793]  INFO -- : master process ready
18:24:56 web.1  | I, [2013-03-13T18:24:56.886145 #18795]  INFO -- : worker=0 spawned pid=18795
18:24:56 web.1  | I, [2013-03-13T18:24:56.886272 #18795]  INFO -- : Refreshing Gem list
18:24:57 web.1  | I, [2013-03-13T18:24:57.647574 #18795]  INFO -- : worker=0 ready

Looks good, so press Ctrl-C to exit and you can deploy your changes to Heroku:

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "use unicorn via procfile"
$ git push heroku master

Check ps, you’ll see the web process uses your new command specifying Unicorn as the web server

$ heroku ps
=== web (1X): `bundle exec unicorn -p $PORT -c ./config/unicorn.rb`
web.1: starting 2014/04/17 12:55:33 (~ 1s ago)

The logs also reflect that we are now using Unicorn:

$ heroku logs

Rails Asset Pipeline

There are several options for invoking the Rails asset pipeline when deploying to Heroku. For general information on the asset pipeline please see the Rails 3.1+ Asset Pipeline on Heroku Cedar article.

The config.assets.initialize_on_precompile option has been removed is and not needed for Rails 4. Also, any failure in asset compilation will now cause the push to fail. For Rails 4 asset pipeline support see the Ruby Support page.

Troubleshooting

If you push up your app and it crashes (heroku ps shows statecrashed), check your logs to find out what went wrong. Here are some common problems.

Runtime dependencies on development/test gems

If you’re missing a gem when you deploy, check your Bundler groups. Heroku builds your app without the development or test groups, and if you app depends on a gem from one of these groups to run, you should move it out of the group.

One common example using the RSpec tasks in your Rakefile. If you see this in your Heroku deploy:

$ heroku run rake -T
Running `bundle exec rake -T` attached to terminal... up, ps.3
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- rspec/core/rake_task

Then you’ve hit this problem. First, duplicate the problem locally:

$ bundle install --without development:test
…
$ bundle exec rake -T
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- rspec/core/rake_task

Now you can fix it by making these Rake tasks conditional on the gem load. For example:

Rakefile

begin
  require "rspec/core/rake_task"
  desc "Run all examples"
  RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new(:spec) do |t|
    t.rspec_opts = %w[--color]
    t.pattern = 'spec/**/*_spec.rb'
  end
rescue LoadError
end

Confirm it works locally, then push to Heroku.
