Redis backend for doit.

This plugin for doit add a new redis backend, using the redis-py client.

This allows to have a more suitable backend for multi-processing, and it even allows to run multiple doit processes in parallel.

Install:

$ pip install doit-redis

Usage:

Add backend in the doit.cfg file:

[GLOBAL]
backend = redis

[BACKEND]
redis = doit_redis:RedisDB

backend can also be set in the dodo.py config, and dep_file can be used to specify the Redis url:

DOIT_CONFIG = {
    'backend': 'redis',
    'dep_file': 'redis://[:password]@localhost:6379/0',  # optional
}
