Running Rails console on heroku, in sandbox mode


Couldn't find it in the docs, nor on SO, but is there a way to run the Rails (3.2.x) console in sandbox mode on heroku (Celadon Cedar), equivalent to

rails console --sandbox

Solution

  • For a more "the Heroku way" alternative, heroku run console --sandbox does the trick as well:

    $ heroku run console --sandbox
    Running `console --sandbox` attached to terminal... up, run.6024
    
    [...]
    
    Loading production environment in sandbox (Rails 3.2.12)
    Any modifications you make will be rolled back on exit
