DATABASE_URL config var now set automatically when provisioning Postgres add-on
Change effective on 20 March 2014
As of now, if a Postgres add-on is provisioned to an app that does not have a DATABASE_URL
config key, DATABASE_URL
will be automatically set to the URL of the provisioned database in addition to adding the HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_COLOR_URL
config.
$ heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql
...
$ heroku config
=== example-app Config Vars
DATABASE_URL: postgres://{user}:{password}@{hostname}:{port}/{database-name}
HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_AQUA_URL: postgres://{user}:{password}@{hostname}:{port}/{database-name}
