feathers

feathers copied to clipboard

I already uploaded my application to my github repository.

Heroku detects every change I make in my rest-api / branch and automatically deploys it.

I have already read all the information about this but I have not found anything to solve my problem. e. g https://github.com/feathersjs/docs/issues/66 or https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47270219/deploy-feathersjs-app-on-heroku and many more...

I tried to do it as if it were a normal nodejs/express application. I already changed the port "const port = process.env.PORT || app.get('port');"

I also put in the .env file"NODE_ENV = production", (I also tried this with "NODE_ENV = development")

Procfile has the command "web: yarn dev" (I also tried this with "web: node src/" and web: node src/index.js and web: node src/app.js)

But nothing absolutely nothing makes my rest-api work. I'm already very desperate and I don't know what else I could do. Please help !!!

NODE_ENV has to be set to production via the Heroku CLI or in the application settings:

Thanks for your answer. I will try to deploying as you advised me. When I finished it I sent you a couple of screenshoots. Thanks and a good day.

I noticed the latest feathers generator adds the hostname to app.listen :

const server = app.listen(port, hostname);

This was causing an EADDRNOTAVAIL error on a freshly generated feathers application, deployed to heroku. Changing it back to:

const server = app.listen(port);

fixed it. Maybe that's the reason why it doesn't work for you @pm-dan?

I noticed the same thing. I think I'll revert that PR and make a new generator release. Also, a Cookbook entry for Heroku deployment would still be a very welcome contribution.

Just tried this out on my own. With a newly generate feathers app, the step to make it deployable on Heroku are

1. Change

const server = app.listen(port, hostname)

to

const server = app.listen(port)

2. Set the NODE_ENV variable to "production"

Everything has worked well, thank you all for your support.

NOTE for typescript projects you should change your scripts to build before Heroku prunes devDependencies

    "heroku-postbuild":"yarn run compile",
    "start": "node lib/",

getting error during feathers api deployment in heroku.

Please help me whats wrong i m doing. below is script command

"heroku-postbuild": "npm run compile", "start": "node ./lib/index.js",

thanks

@pankajxeine I think you should check outDir in tsconfig.json if its "./lib"

I managed to get the feathers-chat app running on Heroku PostgreSQL BTW which might be of interest: https://cirosantilli-feathersjs-chat.herokuapp.com/ Overview: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47270219/deploy-feathersjs-app-on-heroku/66723974#66723974 Branch: https://github.com/cirosantilli/feathers-chat/tree/sequelize-pg
