Redie

Redis client focused on providing a delightful user experience.

Usage

Connect to your Redis server by passing the following command-line arguments (or by using an env.json painless-config file, or setting their environment variable equivalents):

  -h      Hostname to connect to (defaults to 127.0.0.1 or REDIS_HOSTNAME environment variable)
  -p      Port to connect to (defaults to 6379 (non-TLS), 6380 (TLS), or REDIS_PORT environment variable)
  -a      Password to use to connect (defaults to REDIS_PASSWORD environment variable)
  --tls   Use TLS to connect (defaults to on if REDIS_TLS environment variable is set)

Once connected you'll be placed in a "Redie shell" where you can execute commands against the Redis server you connected to:

hostname>

Using npx to start the Redie shell

npx redie -h <hostname> -a <password> --tls

Commands

Redie supports the full set of Redis commands with the exception of:

• BATCH, MULTI
• SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE, PSUBSCRIBE, PUNSUBSCRIBE

Redie also adds the following commands:

• HELP [pattern] lists the Redis commands matching the specified pattern (wildcards supported)
• SAVE filename saves the output of the last command to the specified filename overwriting it if it already exists
• QUIT exits the Redie shell

Roadmap

• Support for subscriptions
• Support for BATCH and MULTI
• Formatting for more types (e.g. HTML)
• Extensible formatting
• Command-line arguments to run a command (and optionally exit)
• Run commands from a file (both from the command-line and the shell)

Contributing

You must have the following installed on your system:

• Redis Server (for local testing)
• NodeJS+npm

To start working, run npm install in the repository folder to install the required dependencies.

Then run nodejs index.js to get the redie command line
