I read the Postgres docs for Flask

and they said that to run Postgres you should have the following code

app = Flask(__name__) 
app.config['SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI'] = postgresql://localhost/[YOUR_DB_NAME]' 
db = SQLAlchemy(app)

How do I know my database name?

I wrote db as the name - but I got an error

sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (OperationalError) FATAL:  database "[db]" 
does not exist

Running Heroku with Flask if that helps
