+A heroku plugin to talk to your redis instances on heroku.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+Requirements:
+
+* The heroku gem — `gem install heroku`
+
+* A local installation of redis (or at least the redis-cli utility) — `apt-get install redis-server`
+
+To install:
+
+* `heroku plugins:install https://github.com/rapportive-oss/heroku-redis-cli.git`
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+* `heroku redis:info` — get run-time statistics from your redis.
+
+* `heroku redis:monitor` — monitor commands being sent to your redis in real time.
+
+* `heroku redis:cli` — execute custom commands against redis.
+
+Arguments
+---------
+
+Each command can take the heroku `--app APPNAME` parameter, and a `--db REDIS_URL` parameter (which defaults to `REDISTOGO_URL`) for selecting which redis to connect to.
+
+For `heroku redis:cli`, you can run it in interactive mode:
+
+    heroku redis:cli
+
+or specify a single command to run on the argument list:
+
+    heroku redis:cli get 10
+
+or pipe a file of redis commands.
+
+    heroku redis:cli < script.redis
+
+For any command can also specify any arguments that `redis-cli` expects. Where these conflict with information from the environment variable, the explicit options take precedence:
+
+* `-h X` — connect to redis on host named X.
+* `-p X` — connect to redis on port named X.
+* `-a X` — execute AUTH X after connecting.
+* `-n X` — execute SELECT X after connecting.
+* `-r X cmd *args` — repeat the following command X times.
+* `-v` — print out the version of redis-cli.
