Our current platform provider allows us to set deployed apps to private, which protects access to an app behind a log-in screen. This is great for deploying development versions of our website behind a wall for testing on the internet. Is there a feature or plug-in that can provide similarity on the Heroku platform? I know we could code our own...but we'd love to get away with relying on the provider for this.

Thanks, Siegfried

Unfortunately, no.

I've always had to implement my own solution. For Ruby/Rack-based apps I usually implement Rack::Auth::Basic based on the RACK_ENV. That way I can easily turn off the authentication when the app goes to production.

For Node.js, I do the same environment check, and use Connect's basicAuth middleware.
