We've many apps on Heroku (read about 30) of which roughly ten are production apps.
Therefore I've been looking at creating a little management app to backup all the production apps on an hourly cron (and thus only pay for cron once). Question is, using the above rake tasks, what URL should be used for a specific db? Currently I'm using ENV["SHARED_DATABASE_URL"] but I keep getting back that it's a bad URI. Does anyone have any pointers on this? Hopefully if I get it working I can open it up to folks N On Nov 19, 12:22 am, "Andrew C." <[email protected]> wrote: > I've got a lot on my plate right now, but I'm not opposed to getting > it into a usable state for other people once I get some spare time. > > On Nov 17, 2:10 am, Trevor Turk <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > On Nov 16, 6:44 pm, "Andrew C." <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > I spin up an EC2 instance from my cron job.
