  17. ------------
  18. Before installing/deploying:
  19. $ export APOLLO_HOSTNAME=example.org
  20. On Heroku:
  21. $ heroku config:add APOLLO_HOSTNAME=example.org
  22. Replace `example.org` with your own hostname. When running locally this will probably be `localhost:3000`.
  23. Set up a cron job or other scheduler to run
  24. $ rake get_all_feeds
  25. once per hour or to taste.
  26. Now create yourself a user account from the console:
  27. $ rails c
