Alpine based Dockerfile for a redis image.
This repository has moved to: https://gitlab.com/container-email/redis
Differs from official docker image which by default forces write every second, this version lets os decide. It uses alpine version of redis with musl memory managment, the official docker version is compiled wih jemalloc. It also uses aof and rdb for better error recovery. If the "STUNNEL" environment variable is set then an stunnel server is started listeneing on port 6479 for ssl/tls connections, protected-mode is enabled so redis will only listen to the loopback interface. An stunnel client is then needed to connect, and the file /etc/stunnel/psk.txt must exist with the pre shared key in the format here
