Redis heroku config

sidekiq with redis in heroku

heroku config:set REDIS_PROVIDER=REDISTOGO_URL

Sidekiq will automatically use it.

Also create a config/initializers/redis.rb and put the below content

if ENV["REDISCLOUD_URL"]
    $redis = Redis.new(:url => ENV["REDISCLOUD_URL"])
end

and start redis in heroku  by the below command

> heroku redis

Thats all redis started and sidekiq will automatically use the REDIS_PROVIDER variable
