Getting started

Installing Jedis

In order to have Jedis as a dependency in your application you can:

Use the jar files

download the jedis jar and the Apache Commons dependency

build from source

This gives you the most recent version.

Clone the github project.

That is very easy, on the commandline you just need to:

    git clone git://github.com/xetorthio/jedis.git

build

Before you package it using maven, you have to pass the tests. For that to succeed, you need to have two Redis server instances running. Simply use the two Redis conf files in the conf directory with your up-to-date redis build. On two separate command lines, just run:

redis-server jedis/conf/redis.conf
redis-server jedis/conf/redis2.conf

Note: With recent changes to Redis (v2.4), you may need to edit two copies of the config file provided with Redis such that one is on the default port (6379) and the other on 6380, both with "foobared" as password.

to finally build, run the tests and package, run

    mvn package

Configure a Maven dependency

Jedis is also distributed as a Maven Dependency through Sonatype. To configure that just add the following XML snippet to your pom.xml file.

<dependency>
    <groupId>redis.clients</groupId>
    <artifactId>jedis</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.0</version>
    <type>jar</type>
    <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
