I deployed my site to Heroku running postgresql. Before, I had it on the flask development environment running sqlite. The app ran fine when using the schedule view, but when I access the schedule view from Heroku, I get an error.

CLASS

class Task(db.Model):



id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)



name = db.Column(db.String(80), index=True)



description = db.Column(db.String(200), index=True)



priority = db.Column(db.Integer)



is_complete = db.Column(db.Boolean)  ####might be trouble



url = db.Column(db.String(200), index=True)



est_dur = db.Column(db.Integer)

time_quad = db.Column(db.Integer)



timestamp = db.Column(db.DateTime, index=True, default=datetime.utcnow)



user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'))

ROUTE

@bp.route('/schedule')

#@login_required

def schedule():





currentUser = current_user.id



q1 = Task.query.filter_by(time_quad=1).filter_by(user_id=currentUser).filter_by(is_complete=0).all()



q2 = Task.query.filter_by(time_quad=2).filter_by(user_id=currentUser).filter_by(is_complete=0).all()



q3 = Task.query.filter_by(time_quad=3).filter_by(user_id=currentUser).filter_by(is_complete=0).all()



q4 = Task.query.filter_by(time_quad=4).filter_by(user_id=currentUser).filter_by(is_complete=0).all()



taskAll = q1 + q2 + q3 + q4





print("current user" + str(currentUser))





return render_template('schedule.html', taskList = taskAll)

PostgreSQL has a real boolean type but SQLite doesn't, SQLite generally uses one and zero for true and false (respectively). When you say this:

filter_by(is_complete=0)

the 0 will be interpreted by SQLite as "false" but by PostgreSQL as just the number zero; hence the complaint at Heroku about not being able to compare a boolean and an integer in task.is_complete = 0. If you mean "false", say so:

filter_by(is_complete=False)

That should be converted to zero when talking to SQLite and the proper boolean 'f' (or false) when talking to PostgreSQL.

Once you fix that, I strongly recommend that you install PostgreSQL in your development environment if that's the database you're going to be deploying on. You'll have a much better time of things if you develop, test, and deploy on the same stack.
