是否可以从localhost直接连接到Heroku数据库？

Question

如果我有DATABASE_URL,是否可以从localhost连接到它？我正在使用以下代码:

db = URI.parse(database_url)
connection = ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
                                                     :adapter  => db.scheme == 'postgres' ? 'postgresql' : db.scheme,
                                                     :host     => db.host,
                                                     :username => db.user,
                                                     :password => db.password,
                                                     :database => db.path[1..-1],
                                                     :encoding => 'utf8'
                                                     )

从我的电脑运行代码时,我不断收到如下错误:

could not connect to server: Connection timed out
Is the server running on host some_host.amazonaws.com and accepting
    TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

我使用相同的代码在Heroku上运行的两个应用程序之间共享数据库并且它可以工作.这使我相信除非您从Heroku主机执行,否则连接到Heroku数据库是受限制的.真的吗？

实际上,外部连接需要SSL.可以强制底层的postgres适配器将SSL与sslmode=require参数一起使用.您可以从ActiveRecord连接选项中传递任意参数,如下所示:

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
  adapter:  'postgresql', 
  host:     'host', 
  username: 'user', 
  password: 'pass', 
  database: 'database_name', 
  encoding: 'utf-8',
  port:     '5432', # could be a non-standard port
  sslmode:  'require' # force SSL
)

我在本地验证了这一点,这是一个完整的会话,显示它的工作原理.请确保您没有错误输入任何内容:
