Create a new container - select the type (ruby in this case)

Connecting a Github Repo

cd ~/.ssh
cat id_rsa.pub

Add this to your Github Profile on github.com as an authorized key

Now add the remote

cd ~/workspace
git init
git remote add github REPO_URL
git pull github master

Setting up postgres

Default apt-get postgres that gets installed is 9.5. Use 13 instead by following instructions here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu/

I had an issue with this on one stack, where I had to change the line:

wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -

to the below in order to get it to work

wget -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc --no-check-certificate | sudo apt-key add -

Once installed, the default user will need to be set up:

sudo -u postgres createuser -s $(whoami)

Installing Gems

Had to install some additional dependencies for the repo I was working with - may or may not be necessary depending on codebase.

sudo apt-get install shared-mime-info
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev

Setting up the Heroku CLI

Goal here is to be able to quickly get a copy of the prod database on command.

curl https://cli-assets.heroku.com/install-ubuntu.sh | sh
heroku login -i

Restoring an heroku backup

pg_restore --verbose --clean --no-acl --no-owner -d countries latest.dump
