What's the significance when a Heroku database URL is called 'HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_WHITE_URL'? -
what's "significance" - if - when database url called heroku_postgresql_white_url? i've seen other names in heroku's documentation such 'heroku_postgresql_purple_url', heroku_postgresql_charcoal_url,...
does mean it's primary database, or first database provision? love know.
$ heroku pg:info === heroku_postgresql_white_url (database_url) plan: standard 0 status: available data size: 491.9 mb tables: 22 pg version: 9.3.5 ....
colors picked randomly , exist uniquely in scope of application database created on. across multiple applications, colors have no meaning or correlation.
by example, can have 2 applications 4 distinct databases using 3 colors:
- my_awesome_application
- heroku_postgresql_white_url
- heroku_postgresql_red_url
- my_other_thing
- heroku_postgresql_blue_url
- heroku_postgresql_white_url
the color in db:info marked (database_url) 1 application connecting (unless you've configured else). if @ heroku config, you'll see like
heroku_postgresql_white_url=postgres://path.to:a/db database_url=<the same value white has> if you've provisioned other databases on same app, followers, you'll see more colors in config different urls. if they're followers, pg:info tells db they're following.
