heroku_clips class

Ruby class for moving all the clips from an application to a new DB target

Steps to follow

I Retrieving the cookies and CSFR Token

Go to the Clips Index Page and use the inspect tool on your browser. For example in Chrome:

• Do the request again for the index page
• Go to Network tab and find the clips.json request
• Right-click Copy as cURL
• Paste the content and then copy the cookies (after 'Cookie:) and the X-CSRF-Token value.

II Retrieve the Target

The easy way is doing a move by hand in the page and with the inspect tool analyze the response made:

• Go to Network tab and find the move request
• Right-click Copy as cURL
• Paste the content and then copy the target (heroku_resource_id) that will be at the end. Will be like this: {"heroku_resource_id":"[email protected]"}

III Use the Move Method

1. Copy the class if you wanna do it in terminal
2. Call: HerokuClips.move(name_of_app_in_heroku, target, cookies, csrf_token)

Example of output:

If you receive a different code than 200 in the output Response getting clips:, the process wont't do anything, please check your cookies. But if you get 200, this situations could happen:

Moving OK

Response getting clips: 200
DataClip Name-Of-Data-Clip moved to resource [email protected]

Moving FAIL

If something goes bad with the move, the process will stop:

Response getting clips: 200
Error moving Name-Of-Data-Clip, response code: 400-Bad Request
Please confirm that you have fresh cookies and csfr token
