Re: Allowing users to specify their own custom domain (like Shopify)

We just had a thread about a similar topic: http://groups.google.com/group/heroku/t/1b012e631dd80e64 But this brings up another interesting question. How do you programmatically set up the A/CNAME records for the domain, or even point the nameservers to Zerigo? Although I have not used it, NameCh

Hi, We have a similar app hosted on Heroku right now. Even if you guys could set up zerigo to handle this. On the domain registrar (such as godaddy) you would have to make a small set up for zerigo to handle the domain so i guess it wouldnt help so much. On Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 9:30 AM, Adam McC

Keep in mind that you don't need to set an environment variable for your app name. Heroku already stores it in ENV["APP_NAME"]. Phillip Ridlen @philtr On Aug 13, 12:49 pm, mwhuss wrote: > We actually have done this inhttp://appmark.it > > http://gist.github.com/522935 > > Remember that domain na

We're building a CMS-like app that allows users to create and host their own sites. As part of this, we want to allow them to specify their own custom domain. I understand how to specify a custom domain on Heroku as the developer, but I'm not sure how to let users specify domains, or if it is eve

This really intrigued me, so I thought I'd dig into the Heroku gem (http://github.com/heroku/heroku/blob/master/lib/heroku/client.rb) and see what I could find. On line 120 of client.rb (http://github.com/heroku/heroku/blob/master/ lib/heroku/client.rb#L120) there is a function called add_domain.

I'm getting the impression that a bundle package, then committing those packaged gems to the repo and deploying is the way to go. Will heroku by default look in the vendor/cache directory first before installing gems remotely? On Aug 12, 7:14 am, Matthew Todd wrote: > On Aug 12, 2010, at 3:34 AM

For me, this is one of the biggest issues with Heroku. The support can be hit and miss - sometimes you'll get a reply within minutes, and sometimes it can take hours - which isn't terrific if your site is down. They do offer paid support, but it's certainly not cheap, and ultimately it's just the
