Simple bash script that clone Postgres database from one Heroku app to another one.
Basically, this tiny bash script might be used for copying database from production environment to staging to be able to play with real data without any harmful actions. For this case, notice that you might need to copy S3 bucket or other services that DB entities point to as well.
Generally, you can use this script when setting up several heroku apps for different environments, or you just simply want to clone database to another app.
- heroku-cli installed and authenticated.
- aws-cli installed and authenticated.
- You must be the owner or collaborator for both applications.
$ sh transfer_databases.sh
In case you got a permission error, just make it executable:
$ sudo chmod 755 transfer_databases.sh
