# Lucee 5 Application Template for Heroku

## NO LONGER MAINTAINED

After the recent [Heroku breach](https://www.theregister.com/2022/04/21/github-stolen-oauth-tokens-used-in-breaches/) (and more than the breach, it was [the way comms were handled](https://www.theregister.com/2022/05/04/heroku_security_communication_dubbed_complete/)) I closed my 10+ year old Heroku account. As such, there are no more live demos. I haven't been using Lucee/CFML for several years at this point either so this repo will no longer be maintained.

## Credits/Notes

- This project is based off of the offical Lucee Heroku Buildpack

## Requirements

- [Maven](http://maven.apache.org/) to build the project
- [Foreman](https://github.com/ddollar/foreman) to run locally

## Instructions

To get started, run the following commands in GitBash (or your terminal of preference):

```bash
git clone https://github.com/mikesprague/lucee5-heroku.git
cd lucee5-heroku
mvn package
foreman start
```

NOTE: On Windows, start foreman with the following command:

```bash
foreman start -f Procfile.dev
```

You should now have Lucee up and running at <http://localhost:5000>. Start adding your code.

To deploy your site to Heroku you need to setup a free Heroku account, install the Heroku toolbelt (Suggested reading: [Getting Started with Java on Heroku](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-java)). Then...

```bash
heroku apps:create [NAME]
git push heroku master
heroku open
```

You should now be looking at your app running on Heroku.

NOTES:

- If you need access to the admin, disable the first rule in urlrewrite.xml.
- Default password for web admins is `password`. This should be changed to something secure before deploying your app.
- Make any settings (datasources, mail settings, etc.) changes you want locally via the web context, commit your changes and then deploy your app and they will also exist on Heroku.
  - Better practice to add any settings changes, datasources, etc. via Application.cfc; use web context for changes if you must set them via Lucee Admin
  - Server context will be overwritten on deploy, very important desired changes are made to web context if you wish to keep them
- If you get a Heroku application error try reloading the page. This is a known issue. I think the Lucee dependencies aren't quite ready when this happens, I need to look into it further.

Enjoy!
