Hi Guys,

To get started with Heroku, you need a public key. If you do not have one in the

C:\Users\<YourUsername>\.ssh folder, then you get this error

looking at the source code, line 195 is ssh key generation. So what we need to do is use a utility like GitBash to do this for us:

Instructions

TO get up and running with the Heroku Toolbelt on windows ensure you read:

http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/quickstart

Once you have read that and installed Heroku toolbelt

http://assets.heroku.com/heroku-toolbelt/heroku-toolbelt.exe

then install Git (Or use the Git bash if already installed)

http://msysgit.googlecode.com/files/Git-1.7.8-preview20111206.exe

Now, what you do is follow all the instructions here, you might as well ensure you have a GitHub account, its nice to put your code in a repository if developing:

http://help.github.com/win-set-up-git/

You should then have these files (you might not have known hosts), if you did not connect into git

The Heroku batch file will look for the id_rsa.pub file and use it to connect to the cloud servers.

Once this is done, you can then go back to the heroku.cmd execution and login

D:\Program Files (x86)\Heroku>heroku login
Enter your Heroku credentials.
Email: ROMIKOV@GMAIL.COM
Password:
Found existing public key: C:/Users/Romiko/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Uploading ssh public key C:/Users/Romiko/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
That is it, so hope this gets you started on Heroku

Neo4j

Once you ran the above command, then create an application

Create Heroku Applicaton in the Cloud

D:\Program Files (x86)\Heroku>heroku apps:create Neo4jOrBust
Creating neo4jorbust… done, stack is bamboo-mri-1.9.2
http://neo4jorbust.heroku.com/ | git@heroku.com:neo4jorbust.git

Notice the appname is lowercase always!

Install Neo4j Addon

For this to work, you must verify the account and you will need a credit card, it will NOT be billed. Don’t sue me if it does!

Then for Neo4j, just install the addon like so

D:\Program Files (x86)\Heroku>heroku addons:add neo4j –app neo4jorbust
—–> Adding neo4j to neo4jorbust… failed
!    Please verify your account to install this add-on
!    For more information, see http://devcenter.heroku.com/categories/billing
!    Confirm now at https://heroku.com/confirm

Go verify your account and then come back and run the command again

https://api.heroku.com/myapps

 
D:\Program Files (x86)\Heroku>heroku addons:add neo4j –app neo4jorbust
—–> Adding neo4j to neo4jorbust… done, (free)

Thats it!

You can then go check your addons on the web site at heroku under resources. Click databases and scroll to bottom.

Notice neo4jTest and it is free Lets enable it

 Notice, the urls for the webadmin site and rest url, you all set to work with Neo4j now

Thats it, have fun!
