I need to manually update changes to my heroku master app after deployment from my local project without getting rid of any data that was already there in my last instance. How can I do this (on windows or ubuntu on windows). Thanks!

I have a backend node.js app setup in Heroku that uses a postgreSQL database. I have connected it to my github repo and can push my code to heroku fine it seems. I have installed the Heroku Postgres add-on, but for some reason I am unable to access the database using the heroku pg:psql command. When I run the command, it just states Connecting to databasename and no error or anything else pops up. Here are my gitbash commands:
olms2#LAPTOP-O3KD6RL5 MINGW64 ~/OneDrive/Desktop/Coding/Springboard/Current VS Code Projects/final-capstone-2-backend (master)
$ heroku addons

$ heroku pg:psql
--> Connecting to postgresql-elliptical-01419
On a side note, I have no idea why the heroku addons command shows all that gibberish. I have tried deleting the entire app then reinstalling, but I still get the gibberish and unresponsive heroku pg:psql. I should mention that I created the app and installed the addon on the heroku website interface.
Seems there are a bunch of StackOverflow Answers referencing an error with the pg:psql command, but couldn't find any confronting an issue with the command not responding. Happy to provide more info and would really appreciate any help.
I push updates to Heroku
git push Heruko master
then go and run my app from the Heroku page and the changes are not showing in the running app.
If I run bash and look at the files on Heroku, the changes are in the files.
It shows "Everything is up-to-date" message and no code reflects.
I've tried restarting the app and the changes are still not reflected in the running app.
don't forget to build your front and copy that folder to the public folder on the backend... it's happen to me ;)
check the git log to check the date and the name of the commit you are uploading.
if the commit is right, try deleting the existing app on heroku and upload again
Check in your package.json, the start script is pointing to your server.js file
I built a Meteor app, and it runs on my local machine, where I have meteor installed.
I have never deployed an app online, and am trying to put the app on heroku.
I first tried to use buildpack/jordansissel/heroku-buildpack-meteor.git, but I got an error "Meteor requires Node v0.10.41 or later"
I then tried to use buildpack/michaltakac/meteor-buildpack-horse.git but it failed to push because it couldn't unpack Node.
Lastly I've tried kevinseguin/heroku-buildpack-meteor.git but I get lots of warnings about npm depricated http://prntscr.com/bewzak
When I look at the logs it says "Slug compilation failed: failed to compile Node.js app"
I also get Error: MONGO_URL must be set in environment
I don't know enough to understand what the errors are, or how to get my app deployed
Image of errors: http://prntscr.com/bex0av
my goal it to get the site on gr-fireworks.herokuapp.com
I contacted Heroku helpdesk and they said they couldn't help me because the issue was outside the scope of Heroku Support.
I tried to reach out to Snap CI who said they were successful in deploying it, but when I try to type in exactly what they did, I am still getting the error about Node https://snap-ci.com/ankitsri11/Fireworks/branch/master/logs/defaultPipeline/1/Heroku?back_to=build_history
My repository I'm trying to deloy is on git at github.com/jschwarzwalder/Fireworks
From description of your problem I can conclude you need to do 2 things on your app's Heroku dashboard (Settings tab):
Add MONGO_URL environment variable that points to your Mongo DB database. You can create mongo instance on external service or use mLab Heroku addon (it has free plan).
So your environment variables may look like:
Also, you may need to add METER_SETTINGS if you use --settings settings.json and ROOT_URL - URL of you app gr-fireworks.herokuapp.com (is required).
Set this buildpack:
Ensure you have .git at the end of url.
Now you can deploy your app using single command (if you setup Heroku Toolbelt and heroku remote points Heroku's app repository):
$ git push heroku master
I have a great working website built with MEAN and works great locally.
i wish to deploy it on my server,
but i never deployed a website
other than uploading the files to my website ftp.
Tutorials anyone?
Another good starting point would be Digital Ocean, they offer a one click install MEAN stack, with tutorials. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-the-mean-one-click-install-image
I have just deployed my MEAN Stack application on Heroku cloud application environment. The deployment steps are easy.
Steps to deploy:
Your mean stack project structure should be like this. This is very important step. The bottonline is your package.json and server.js should be under your root directory. Have a look at the link to know more about the structure.
Clone your remote repository locally i.e. git clone https://github.com/heroku/node-js-getting-started.git
Go inside the cloned repository e.g. cd node-js-getting-started
Run git add .
Run git commit -m "Sample"
Run Heroku login (It will ask you to press any key and then open up the browser and ask you to click login. After logged in closed the browser instance.
Run heroku create myApp --buildpack heroku/nodejs. Note: Buildpacks are responsible for transforming deployed code into a slug, which can then be executed on a dyno. More information
Run git push heroku master. Your deplyment will start.
Once deployment is done, you will see the complete deployment logs on command prompt terminal
The application is now deployed. Ensure that at least one instance of the app is running: heroku ps:scale web=1
Run heroku open. It will run your deployed instance.
Run heroku logs to view information about your running app. More information

What operating system do you plan to host it on?
I am new to heroku and I am trying to create an app and deploy, but when i do heroku create on CLI this creates a random name for the application. So I used heroku app:create project-name which created the application with the project-name but how do i deploy my existing code to that application.
If you've already performed heroku create without specifying a name in your application folder then you will already have a git remote named heroku. You can confirm this by doing
git remote -v
in your project folder which will probably show something like
heroku git#heroku.com:stark-taiga-7738.git (fetch)
heroku git#heroku.com:stark-taiga-7738.git (push)
When you then create an application specifying an application name then the existing remote will not get updated with the new application details.
To fix this you will need to remove the existing git remote named heroku and then add a new one pointed to the correct application.
git remote rm heroku will remove the existing remote
heroku git:remote --app <new app name> will create a new heroku remote pointing at your new application will then let you do git push heroku master and deploy to the correct application.
Heroku uses Git to deploy. Navigate to the home directory of your application and simply do
git push heroku master
See the documentation for deploying a node.js application to Heroku for details.
