Redic.lua

Redic compatible Redis (wrapper) client for Lua.

This library wraps existing Redis Lua clients and provide a unified interface. As a result, in your project you can only deal with the Redic interface without bothering with the underlying implementation.

This is initially designed to work with sohm.lua, we want to make sure sohm.lua works across OpenResty and plain LuaJIT platforms.

Supported Platforms

• lua-resty-redis
• resp

Getting Started

Here we use lua-resty-redis as an example, suppose we have the following code:

local redis = require "resty.redis"
local red = redis:new()

red:set_timeout(1000) -- 1 sec

-- or connect to a unix domain socket file listened
-- by a redis server:
--     local ok, err = red:connect("unix:/path/to/redis.sock")

local ok, err = red:connect("127.0.0.1", 6379)
if not ok then
    ngx.say("failed to connect: ", err)
    return
end

You can use Redic.lua like this:

local redic = require "redic"
local db = redic(red, "lua-resty-redis")

local res, err = db:call("GET", "dog")

if err then
    print("Error occurs: " .. err)
    return
end
ngx.say("dog: ", tostring(res))

You can also send pipelined requests:

db:queue("SET", "cat", "Marry")
db:queue("SET", "horse", "Bob")
db:queue("GET", "cat")
db:queue("GET", "horse")

local results, err = db:commit()

if err then
    print("Error occurs: " .. err)
    return
end

for i, res in ipairs(results) do
    if type(res) == "table" then
        if res[1] == false then
            print("failed to run command ", i, ": ", res[2])
        else
            -- process the table value
        end
    else
        -- process the scalar value
    end
end
