#Spring Cloud Heroku connector
This connector will discover services bound to an application running in Heroku. It currently knows about:
- PostgreSQL (Heroku)
- MySQL (ClearDB)
- Redis (RedisToGo, Redis Cloud, RedisGreen, openredis)
- MongoDB (MongoLab, MongoHQ, MongoSoup)
- RabbitMQ (CloudAMQP)
Pull requests for adding additional services are welcome.
##Supporting additional providers for existing service types
To add support for discovering a new provider for a service already listed above, add
the provider's environment prefix to the list in getEnvPrefixes() on the
ServiceInfoCreator class.
##Supporting new service types
Extend HerokuServiceInfoCreator
with a creator for your service's ServiceInfo class.
Add the fully-qualified class name for your creator to
META-INF/service/org.springframework.cloud.heroku.HerokuServiceInfoCreator
##Limitations
Unlike CloudFoundry, Heroku exposes very little information about the app that is retrievable from within a running instance. For example, there is no good way to find the name of the application. Therefore, if an app desires such info, it needs to make it available through environment variables.
To have sensible app name available through ApplicationInstanceInfo,
set the SPRING_CLOUD_APP_NAME environment variable
heroku config:add SPRING_CLOUD_APP_NAME=myappname --app myappname
If this env variable is not set, the app name will be set to <unknown>.
