Re: Custom error pages, we *really* need them
I've suggested in the past having a separate branch in your repo called errorpages or something, which has a few static HTML pages. Push that branch to Heroku, and it can use those files to serve errors.

This two pages have a message specifically addressed to the administrator that is not acceptable in a production site. We need to have personalized pages. Same logic about the Heroku Ouchie Page of course! If this is not possible immediately a quick hack could be to have a really generic white-label page (multilingual would be appreciated) and put all the system message in an html comment. We are tech guys, right? Is not a problem to look at the source to find out what is happening. This seems clever that show a ugly error message to everyone. Finally as I already suggested in another discussion: A simple solution for more personalization without the need to access any preferences could be to have a full page iframe inside the heroku's error page pointing to http://error .heroku_app_domain.tld/http_error.html The admin has to create a third/fourth level domain, point it to a different server and create the personalized pages. So every application can have an error page/backup application to handle the down. A js can check for the domain existence and switch to a plain txt message if it is not set. I'd love to get feedback on these ideas by Heroku guys. Thank you. Daniele -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group.

Re: Heroku Console and Gems
Not necessarily. .gems is deprecated IIRC, and only tells Heroku what to install. Your Rails app has to define gems in config/environment.rb w/ config.gem directives.

Then I upload the file back into my Rails app. I know Heroku's filesystem is read-only, no ssh access, etc. Given these limitations, what's the best approach to take? I see I can use S3 for file storage. But how about finding a way to use this command-line utility? I'm highly doubting Heroku would install such a thing, right? Any alternative ideas? One idea I can think of is to wrap GraphViz in a web service and install it in a seperate hosting service. To this end, you can always spin up an EC2 instance. Since Heroku dynos are hosted on EC2, you can talk to any other machines over private IP addresses. You just need to allow the Heroku security group. An alternative idea: Heroku lets you use sqlite/memory databases. Its not a supported option, but they do work, and I would say the limitations are severe (I doubt Delayed Jobs would see them). You could upload the information that GraphViz needs to process into the DB. I am uncertain how you could get the GraphViz CLI app to use it, but perhaps GraphViz has a library/gem which has less restrictive use?

Re: Workflow to allow heroku to install a 'private' (local) gem on deploy
If Bundler is running on Heroku, the Heroku UNIX user account needs to have its public key in your Github repo as an authorized key. Each Heroku machine will have a different SSH key generated, and you non-deterministically deploy to some machine in the Heroku cloud each time you deploy. Even if you had a consistent SSH key, it would be insecure for you to add that key to your public repo, as anyone else deploying to the same machine as you would be able to download your code repo.

Re: Workflow to allow heroku to install a 'private' (local) gem on deploy
If you could package a custom SSH pub/private keypair with your Gemfile, you could then: 1) Add that pub key to Github 2) Set the :git source in the Gemfile for your private gem to point at your private SSH Github URL. However, I don't believe Bundler supports having an embedded public/private keypair. It would be an interesting patch, though. Currently, I just script/plugin install --force my private plugin from Github every time I update it, which I hate. - David On Mon, Aug 9, 2010 at 11:55 AM, Andrew C. andrew.c...@gmail.com wrote: You can vendor the gem too.

private git repos in bundler
If I have a private library on Github that I want to include in my Heroku app via Bundler, I know I can pass the Git-SSH URL to Bundler. However, the deploy machine would have to have the correct SSH keys to clone from github. Is it possible to get my app's SSH pub key, and add it to my project on Github to allow private cloning from Heroku? Thanks!
