I am running it on a Heroku instance which allows me to access it from anywhere. Ideally, I would want it to be running from this domain and that’s an activity that I’m procrastinating upon.
With frequent updates, updating my Heroku instance was a bit cumbersome. The official docs says:
Backup the PGS database from Heroku’s dashboard, then create a new application (or destroy the database on your existing one).
Now that’s too much of work for me. So instead, I am following this approach (stolen from MonicaHQ’s docs):
- Clone the Firefly-III repository to your local environment by
git clone https://github.com/firefly-iii/firefly-iii.git
. - Add your app’s heroku git repository by
heroku git:remote -a <app-name>
. - Push to heroku by
git push heroku master
. Heroku will build and update the repository, automatically.
This seems to work quite fine for me.
