In my rails 4 application directory, I typed "heroku pg:credentials DATABASE" into terminal to get all the information about the database for my application which is deployed on heroku. Since I'd like to view the data inside my postgresql database, I tried inputting the information into Induction, but it ended up not responding and I was forced to enter the activity monitor and force quit. I followed the same procedure several more times all with the same result. Is my version of Induction faulty? Should I be using a different program to view my database? Or am I doing something wrong?
I'm new to rails, so thanks for your help!
Yes, you can. Heroku Postgres allows connections from outside Heroku's network. The credentials displayed from
heroku pg:credentialswill be all you need and should work. Maybe try using the official PGAdmin tool instead?
