## Anyone has ever deployed on Heroku not using the one-click ? I am issues setting-up the env variable. Especially in connecting to my external postgres DB. Can I still the env `NC_DB` ? If I have to use `DATABASE_URL`, anyone has a tool to test my JDBC URL ?

#### You can use `DATABASE_URL`

#### 

#### Have you’d experience before in deploying things to heroku ? If you want to test the URL from another tool. It can be like tableplus/dbeaver from your local machine. But then you will have to whitelist your localmachine IP in heroku
