How to deploy Symfony2 application with DB to Heroku
=====
[](https://heroku.com/deploy)
### Requirements
1. Heroku account - signup at http://heroku.com
2. Install Heroku Command Lin from https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-command-line
### Step by step guide
1. create symfony application
```bash
#terminal
$ symfony new hdapp lts
```
2. initialize git repository for your new created application
```bash
#terminal
$ git init
$ git add .
$ git commit -m 'initial commit'
```
3. edit **parameters.yml.dist** file and add
```yaml
# app/config/parameters.yml.dist
parameters:
database_driver: pdo_pgsql
```
4. edit **parameters.yml** file and add your own required database driver (in my case) pdo_mysql
```yaml
# app/config/parameters.yml
parameters:
database_driver: pdo_mysql
```
5. edit **config.yml** file and add at the begining of doctrine configuration
```yaml
# app/config/config.yml
doctrine:
dbal:
driver: "%database_driver%"
```
6. edit **config_prod.yml** and change *path* from "%kernel.logs_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log" to "php://stderr"
```yaml
# app/config/config_prod.yml
monolog:
# ...
handlers:
# ...
nested:
# ...
path: 'php://stderr'
```
logs available running:
```bash
$ heroku logs --num 10
```
7. check if your configuration works by
```bash
$ ./app/console doctrine:database:create
```
8. log in to heroku using your credentials
```bash
$ heroku login
```
9. create application on heroku (in my case ***hdapp***)
```bash
$ heroku create hdapp
````
10. checking remote github repositories
```bash
$ git remote -f
```
in my case result is
```bash
heroku https://git.heroku.com/hdapp.git (fetch)
heroku https://git.heroku.com/hdapp.git (push)
origin https://github.com/mysiar/HOWTO-Symfony2-app-on-Heroku.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/mysiar/HOWTO-Symfony2-app-on-Heroku.git (push)
```
11. create procfile
```bash
$ echo "web: bin/heroku-php-apache2 web/" > Procfile
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Procfile for Apache and PHP"
```
12. set heroku environment
```bash
heroku config:set SYMFONY_ENV=prod
```
13. push application to heroku
```bash
$ git push heroku master
```
14. at this moment we have heroku configured for our symfony2 application and application deployed
```bash
$ heroku open
```
15. create entity to play with database (AppBundle:Heroku),
i made just one string 255 field called ***name***
```bash
$ ./app/console doctrine:generate:entity
```
16. crud with write actions and default the rest of parameters
```bash
$ ./app/console doctrine:generate:crud AppBundle:Heroku
$ ./app/console doctrine:schema:update --force
```
17. at this moment if we try to push our app to heroku it will fail as there is no link between the app and database that app requires
18. create ***app.json*** file with content - it is required for 'Deploy to Heroku' button
```json
{
"name": "Heroku Deployment Application",
"description": "hdapp - example application for HOWTO",
"repository": "https://github.com/mysiar/HOWTO-Symfony2-app-on-Heroku",
"keywords": [
"symfony2", "heroku", "howto"
],
"success_url": "/heroku",
"scripts": {
"postdeploy": "php app/console doctrine:schema:create"
},
"addons": [
"heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev"
],
"env": {
"SYMFONY_ENV": {
"value": "prod"
}
}
}
```
19. create ***HerokuDatabase.php*** file with content
```` php
getIO();
$io->write("DATABASE_URL=".getenv("DATABASE_URL"));
}
}
```
20. update "scripts" section in ***composer.json*** with
```json
"pre-install-cmd": [
"HerokuDatabase::populateEnvironment"
],
```
21. update "extra" ""incenteev-parameters" section in ***composer.json*** with
```json
"env-map": {
"database_host": "DATABASE_HOST",
"database_port": "DATABASE_PORT",
"database_name": "DATABASE_NAME",
"database_user": "DATABASE_USER",
"database_password": "DATABASE_PASSWORD"
}
```
22. deploy app to heroku
```bash
$ git push heroku master
```
23. call heroke and ask for database :)
```bash
$ heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev
```
24. create db
```bash
$ heroku run php app/console doctrine:schema:create
```
25. deploy app to heroku
```bash
$ git push heroku master
```
26. update schema
```bash
$ heroku run php app/console doctrine:schema:update
```
27. run application and go to /heroku
```bash
$ heroku open
```
