How to deploy an Ionic app with CouchDB and PouchDB using Heroku? - heroku

I just followed along with this tutorial to create a Todo list app with user authentication: https://www.joshmorony.com/part-2-creating-a-multiple-user-app-with-ionic-2-pouchdb-couchdb/
The app is built with the Ionic 2 Framework using CouchDB and PouchDB to create a separate database for each user. However, I am totally confused as to how to move this setup from my local machine to a Heroku server.
Can anyone provide a step by step process to accomplish this?

Heroku no longer supports couchdb addon seems it was closed sometime back. For couchdb-pouchdb hosting you can use IBM's cloudant, irish couch or digital ocean.
For my case i setup an ubuntu16.04 droplet on digital ocean, installed and configured couchdb on it. You can check out this list of couchdb hosting sites. Hope this helps

Retrieve website files from Laravel Forge/Digital ocean

I have a website that was made by someone. I’m trying to get my files and want to be able to update some front end stuff. He made the website with Laravel Forge and Digital Ocean. He has his account connected to his Github I think. I was able to ssh into my Forge with keys. I also have a sudo pass and database pass if this helps. He’s MIA btw deleted all his social stuff and website and won’t respond to emails.
If you don't have access to GitHub so the easier way is to download the files from the server there are many ways to do it as example by using FileZilla then create a new repository in GitHub and push your code to the repository in GitHub then you can deploy from GitHub to the server

where I can deploy strapi for production?

I have made a simple comercial project where i used my own cms just for help client upload photos on his page. Its very primitve so i decided to use strapi.io because of better UI/UX.
My question is where I can deploy strapi. Server where site is hosted doesn't support node.js so it has to be external server. I'm thinking about Heroku but I don't know if it will work and how it should handle img files. It will be nice if solve of this problem won't generate additional costs.
Please, help!
If you don't have a DB hosted, you could look at using Mlab which is cloud database service that hosts MongoDB.
There is a useful Strapi blog post that walks you through deploying it to Heroku here: Deploying a Strapi API on Heroku
From their documentation
Heroku
AWS
Digital Ocean
Google App engine
There was a service called Redhost (redhost.cloud) which specialized in Strapi server hosting.

Are heroku apps anonymous?

If I have made 2 different heroku apps, can someone who randomly sees one also find the other and know that I made it? (They are not linking to each other of course)
Thanks!
If you look at Heroku Website you will notice that it is a deployment service for developers equipped with all required tools. On Heroku there is no way to find who is registered with Heroku or list of registered apps on Heroku just like Github.
So Github has a different service model, and we can easily search any repo, any author (if public). On Heroku there is no area or option to search like that.
Except that, if you are using Heroku for free and their free domain, then the prefix in start of your free domain name will let others know that you are using Heroku platform (with free package or have not configured real domain yet).
Twilio a famous SMS API service provider, has their chat service hosted on Heroku, they didn't configured the domain, hence I noticed Herokuapp in start of their chat window URL, which let me know that they are using Heroku.

Can I deploy a Spring Boot application on godaddy

Can I deploy a Spring-Boot application on godaddy
using Web hosting and cPanel?
Thanks.
No. If you're using Web hosting (shared) plans according to Godaddy details.
I Suggest the answer from Amir Al.
For more information:
Web hosting (Shared) usually limits the Web technology you can use.
However, they're cheap and easy to set up a Wordpress, Drupal, Joomla etc.
So, if you use spring-boot, search Java web hosting
Virtual Private Server (VPS) and Dedicated Server will unlock the web hosting limitation because you have to do it by yourself.
However, if you're not familiar with Linux (Ex. CentOS / Ubuntu) command line. you can try Window VPS. If it looks so expensive, move to the cloud. I suggest a free trials or ~5USD package with Digital Ocean, Google Cloud, Amazon lightsail, and so on
Platform as a Service (PaaS) such as heroku. If Linux command line seems to be hard work for you. This choice gives you a shortcut to deploy your target application. However you have to learn about Git and their tools.
So, if you want to deploy spring-boot use:
Java web hosting
Cloud PaaS
VPS
Nodtem66 - Thanks for sharing the information. It helped me a lot.
In addition to what is mentioned above. I figured out there are 2 ways of hosting a java based application:
1. Purchase a VM (VPS, PaaS) - This is higher in cost if the only need is to have a single webpage application hosted
2. Pay for only Java Hosting - This is much lesser
Few of them I came across are:

How to bring a server online and link it to parse.com?

I have a server of my own running locally on my wifi, on 0.0.0.0:5000.
I have built an app with the parse.com backend, and I want to link this server to Cloud Code, so I can call functions on it.
I am completely lost and don't know where to start to bring my server online with only Parse being able to access it and use its API.
Or am I better off renting a VPS and connecting to that?
