ruby on rails - How to connect to postgresql using url

Question

I had asked an earlier question which did not get any replies.

Basically I get an error invalid database url when I try to do heroku db:push.

I figured I can try explicitly providing the database url.

I tried:

heroku db:push postgres://postgres@localhost/myrailsdb

But that gave error:

Failed to connect to database:
  Sequel::DatabaseConnectionError -> PGError fe_sendauth: no password supplied

What is the format for providing username and password?

Answer 1

Try heroku db:push postgres://username:password@localhost/myrailsdb.
