Connect to Redis

Using the jsr:@iuioiua/redis module, you can connect to a Redis database running anywhere.

Import the `RedisClient` from jsr:@iuioiua/redis

import { RedisClient } from "jsr:@iuioiua/redis";

Create a TCP connection with the Redis server

using redisConn = await Deno.connect({ port: 6379 });

Create an instance of 'RedisClient'

const redisClient = new RedisClient(redisConn);

Authenticate with the server by sending the command "AUTH <username> <password>"

await redisClient.sendCommand([
  "AUTH",
  Deno.env.get("REDIS_USERNAME")!,
  Deno.env.get("REDIS_PASSWORD")!,
]);

Set the "hello" key to have value "world" using the command "SET hello world"

await redisClient.sendCommand(["SET", "hello", "world"]); // "OK"

Get the "hello" key using the command "GET hello"

await redisClient.sendCommand(["GET", "hello"]); // "world"

Run this example locally using the Deno CLI:

deno run -N -E https://docs.deno.com/examples/scripts/redis.ts
