FarNet.Redis 0.9.0

FarNet.Redis

StackExchange.Redis PowerShell module and FarNet library

The module provides PowerShell friendly wrappers for basic Redis types and operations. For not yet implemented or advanced operations (like getting byte[] data) use SERedis API methods directly, see examples in tests.

Redis keys, output simple values and complex type items are strings.
Input values may be anything supported by SERedis, including byte[].

Packages:

• PowerShell 7.4 module, PSGallery FarNet.Redis
• FarNet library, NuGet FarNet.Redis

Examples

See tests for all examples.

PowerShell

Import-Module FarNet.Redis
$db = Open-Redis 127.0.0.1:3278
Set-RedisString test:key1 Hello
Get-RedisString test:key1

F#

open StackExchange.Redis
let db = DB.Open("127.0.0.1:3278")
db.StringSet("test:key1", "Hello")
db.StringGet("test:key1")

Garnet server

Microsoft.Garnet is the Redis like server, especially useful on Windows.

Use a tiny project like GarnetServer to build and run the server.
Or download ready to run binaries from Garnet Releases.

Known issues

For faster connection to local servers, consider using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost in configuration strings.

Garnet supports the only database (0), see #61.

Garnet: The same key may simultaneously exist as string and object, see #358. Mind expected inconsistencies and not unique Search-RedisKey results.

Garnet: Do not use saved checkpoints with different server versions, format is not yet stabilized, see FAQ. To migrate data, use Export-Redis, delete checkpoints, upgrade server, use Import-Redis.
