Impressions from the creation of a site on Heroku.com
There is a site heroku.com . It allows you to write (directly on the site) web applications on ruby on rails and host them there.
I decided to make something small - play with this service.
Thought and blinded imajhosting. Used swfuploaded (flash component) and javascript.
Here it is -picupload.heroku.com (the site is dead) - UPD.
')
Pros:
+ complete minimalism. nothing extra. I chose the picture, it swayed and got the URL.
+ IE is not supported. =)
Minuses:
- in urla - record id in db. those. You can increase and decrease the id to watch what others have flooded.
- works slowly. Sometimes it shows 100% download, and the link does not appear for some time.
- under the wrong link the awful exception is given. the reason is that the environment is not included in the product but in development. I won't know how to change it (I changed it in environment.rb, but I don’t have an understanding of how to restart the server).
- flash is required. why? I wanted to make AJAX, but in the rails you can not ayaksovo transfer files. no hacks can be.
- no opportunity to generate thumbnail
- I do not know how many pictures there still fit. I could not find information about the size of the database provided on the site.
After working with heroku I will draw conclusions.
pros
+ you can write a site in the browser
+ latest rail version
+ There is access to the console.
+ you can use generators
+ you can watch logs conveniently
+ you can watch the data in the database.
+ free hosting
Cons (this is a BETA version, should be considered)
- service is undocumented. at all. it is not clear how to do many things. it is not clear how much MB is given
- very, very slowly, everything. highly. Now it hangs so that I can not fix the cons of my project just does not load.
- very bad code editor, constantly hangs, the cursor disappears. horror
- at the bottom of the page of your site they push their socket. I hid her writing css-piece.
- free users can not connect to other hosts
UPD. I will not delete anything of yours. so pour what you want, at the same time check how much it will fit =)
UPD2. that seems to be the end of resources. pff ... just some sort of 30 pictures. I'm shocked. Moreover, now I can't even enter the admin panel. "If this was a bandwidth, it will be accessible again tomorrow."
UPD3 FINAL
Well, the site is dead, will continue to work only tomorrow.
The conclusion is that at the moment heroku.com is not suitable at all for creating any projects at all. Few people need a site that can not stand a couple of hundred people. You can use it for testing, but this is nothing better than a localhost. end.
