Deploying KeystoneJS to Heroku

Deploying a Keystone App to Heroku

Keystone comes completely set up to install on Heroku in a couple of steps.

1. Sign up for a Heroku account and install the Heroku Toolbelt.

Log in with it and you're ready to begin. Heroku uses git to deploy a new site, so with that in mind:

2. Create a new repository on Github and then clone it.

Mongodb: convert a an array into a sub-document. Eg: { "field" : ["v1", "v2", ...], 'date' : $DATE } to { "field" : { "v1" : $DATE, "v2" : $DATE, ... } , 'date' : $DATE}
db.collection.find({ field : { $exists : true } }).forEach( function (x) {
var temp = {}
var count = 0
for (var i in x.field) {
if (typeof x.field[i] == "string") {
// make sure index is a string
temp[x.field[i]] = x.date;
count++;
}

Adding existing source to remote git repo
If you've got local source code you want to add to a new remote new git repository without 'cloning' the remote first, do the following (I often do this - you create your remote empty repository in bitbucket/github, then push up your source)
1. Create the remote repository, and get the URL such as git://github.com/youruser/somename.git
2. If your local GIT repo is already set up, skips steps 2 and 3
3. Locally, at the root directory of your source, git init
4. Locally, add and commit what you want in your initial repo (for everything,
git add .
