Quick Start

Installing Redis

install dependent packages

sudo apt install build-essential
sudo apt install pkg-config
sudo apt install tcl

install redis

mkdir -p ~/soft/redis/
tar -zxvf redis-6.0.6.tar.gz -C ~/soft/redis/
cd ~/soft/redis/redis-6.0.6
#make distclean
make
make test
#make distclean
sudo make install

Starting Redis

redis-server
redis-server /etc/redis.conf

Check if Redis is working

netstat -tnpl
redis-cli ping
redis-cli

ping
set mykey somevalue
get mykey

Redis persistence

redis-cli save
redis-cli shutdown

Installing Redis more properly

sudo mkdir /etc/redis
sudo mkdir /var/redis
cd ~/soft/redis/redis-6.0.6

Make sure to modify REDISPORT accordingly to the port you are using. Both the pid file path and the configuration file name depend on the port number.

sudo cp utils/redis_init_script /etc/init.d/redis_6379
sudo vi /etc/init.d/redis_6379
sudo cp redis.conf /etc/redis/6379.conf
sudo mkdir /var/redis/6379
sudo update-rc.d redis_6379 defaults
sudo /etc/init.d/redis_6379 start

sudo vi /etc/redis/6379.conf

daemonize yes
pidfile /var/run/redis_6379.pid
port 6379
loglevel notice
logfile "/var/log/redis_6379.log"
dir /var/redis/6379
