datahike-heroku

A clj-template for a web app running on Heroku using datahike with postgres.

Heroku App Setup

Ensure your newly generated app is backed with a git repo and commit the initial version, if isn't already

git init && git add --all && git commit -m "Initial commit" 

Create a heroku app and a postgres database for it (hobby dev is free)

heroku apps:create --region eu --addons heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev

Make heroku use the latest Clojure CLI version

heroku config:set CLOJURE_CLI_VERSION=1.10.1.763

Deploy

git push heroku main

This will print the URL of you're newly created app at the end.

What is included?

• deps.edn used for dependencies
• plumbing for deployment to Heroku, including a bin/build and Procfile and using depstar
• datahike configured to use Heroku postgresql as the storage backend
• a ring webserver configured to listen on the port provided by Heroku
