Create your free Redis Cloud account. Follow this link to create Redis Cloud subscription and database as shown below:
Save the database endpoint URL and password for future reference.
If you are using Heroku for the first time, create your new Heroku account through this link
For this demonstration, we will be using a Sample Rate Limiting application
Go to Heroku dashboard, click "Settings" and set
REDIS_ENDPOINT_URI and REDIS_PASSWORD under the
Config Vars. Refer to Step 1 for reference.
You now have a functioning Git repository that contains a simple application as well as a package.json file, which is used by Node’s dependency manager.
Heroku generates a random name (in this case hidden-woodland-03996) for your app, or you can pass a parameter to specify your own app name. Now deploy your code:
Open https://hidden-woodland-03996.herokuapp.com/ to see your application
brew install heroku heroku login
heroku: Press any key to open up the browser to login or q to exit:
