Locally I just interrupt (ctrl-c) and then start it again.
How do I do the same thing with an app on heroku?
Ruby on-Rails Solutions
Solution 1 - Ruby on-Rails
The answer was:
heroku restart -a app_name
# The -a is the same as --app
Easily aliased with alias hra='heroku restart --app '
Which you can make a permanent alias by adding it to your .bashrc or .bash_aliases file as described at:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/17536/how-do-i-create-a-permanent-bash-alias and
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5137726/creating-permanent-executable-aliases
Then you can just type hra app_name
You can restart a specific remote, e.g. "staging" with:
heroku restart -a app_name -r remote_name
Alternatively if you are in the root directory of your rails application you can just type
heroku restart
to restart that app and and you can create an easy alias for that with
alias hr='heroku restart'`
You can place these aliases in your .bashrc file or (preferred) in a .bash_aliases file which is called from .bashrc
Solution 2 - Ruby on-Rails
Go into your application directory on terminal and run following command:
heroku restart
Solution 3 - Ruby on-Rails
If you have several heroku apps, you must type heroku restart --app app_name or heroku restart -a app_name
Solution 4 - Ruby on-Rails
Just type the following commands from console.
cd /your_project
heroku restart
Solution 5 - Ruby on-Rails
heroku ps:restart [web|worker] --app app_name
works for all processes declared in your Procfile. So if you have multiple web processes or worker processes, each labeled with a number, you can selectively restart one of them:
heroku ps:restart web.2 --app app_name
heroku ps:restart worker.3 --app app_name
