Connect with redis-cli

This example demonstrates how to connect to Dragonfly® using redis-cli, which supports nearly all the same commands as it does for Redis®. For more information, see Dragonfly CLI.

Variables

Replace the following placeholders in the code sample with the appropriate values:

Variable Description
DRAGONFLY_URI URL for the Dragonfly connection

Prerequisites

Ensure the following before proceeding:

  1. The redis-cli client installed. This can be installed as part of the Redis®* server installation or as a standalone client. Refer to the Redis Installation Guide for more information.

Code

To connect to Dragonfly, execute the following command in a terminal window:

redis-cli -u DRAGONFLY_URI

This command connects you to your Dragonfly instance.

To verify the connection is successful, use the INFO command:

INFO

This command should return various Dragonfly parameters similar to Redis:

# Server
dragonfly_version:1.0.0
dragonfly_git_sha1:0a1b2c3d
dragonfly_mode:standalone
...

To set a key, use the following command:

SET mykey mykeyvalue123

This should return a confirmation OK.

To retrieve the set key value, use:

GET mykey

The output will be the value of the key, in this case, "mykeyvalue123".
