The above can be modified to specify the version of the RESP protocol by adding the `protocol` option to the `Options` struct:

```go
rdb := redis.NewClient(&redis.Options{
Addr: "localhost:6379",
Password: "", // no password set
DB: 0, // use default DB
Protocol: 3, // specify 2 for RESP 2 or 3 for RESP 3
})

```

### Connecting via a redis url

go-redis also supports connecting via the [redis uri specification](https://github.com/redis/redis-specifications/tree/master/uri/redis.txt). The example below demonstrates how the connection can easily be configured using a string, adhering to this specification.

```go
import (
"context"
"github.com/redis/go-redis/v9"
"fmt"
)

var ctx = context.Background()

func ExampleClient() {
url := "redis://localhost:6379?password=hello&protocol=3"
opts, err := redis.ParseURL(url)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
rdb := redis.NewClient(opts)
```
