Flipper Cloud Redis Demo

This is a demonstration of using Flipper Cloud with Redis as a local adapter. This setup allows you to use Flipper Cloud's feature flag management capabilities while storing the feature flag data locally in Redis.

The key bits to check out are Gemfile and config/initializers/flipper.rb.

Install

Ruby 3.4.2 (asdf install ruby 3.4.2 if you don't have it and use asdf).

bundle

Add token to rails credentials:

rails credentials:edit

Paste this in:

flipper:
  cloud_token: <your personal environment token>

Or you can use FLIPPER_CLOUD_TOKEN env var like this:

FLIPPER_CLOUD_TOKEN=<your api token here> bin/rails s

Console

Here is an example of forcing a sync to an environment that has demo_feature enabled:

bin/rails c
# or FLIPPER_CLOUD_TOKEN=<token> bin/rails c
