# Kredis Kredis (Keyed Redis) encapsulates higher-level types and data structures around a single key, so you can interact with them as coherent objects rather than isolated procedural commands. These higher-level structures can be configured as attributes within Active Models and Active Records using a declarative DSL. Kredis is configured using env-aware yaml files, using `Rails.application.config_for`, so you can locate the data structures on separate redis instances, if you've reached a scale where a single shared instance is no longer sufficient. Kredis provides namespacing support for keys such that you can safely run parallel testing against the data structures without different tests trampling each others data. ## Examples Kredis provides typed scalars for strings, integers, decimals, floats, booleans, datetimes, and JSON hashes: ```ruby string = Kredis.string "mystring" string.value = "hello world!" # => SET mystring "hello world" "hello world!" == string.value # => GET mystring integer = Kredis.integer "myinteger" integer.value = 5 # => SET myinteger "5" 5 == integer.value # => GET myinteger json = Kredis.json "myjson" json.value = { "one" => 1, "two" => "2" } # => SET myjson "{\"one\":1,\"two\":\"2\"}" { "one" => 1, "two" => "2" } == json.value # => GET myjson ``` There are data structures for counters, enums, flags, lists, unique lists, sets, and slots: ```ruby list = Kredis.list "mylist" list << "hello world!" [ "hello world!" ] == list.elements integer_list = Kredis.list "myintegerlist", typed: :integer integer_list.append([ 1, 2, 3 ]) # => LPUSH myintegerlist "1" "2" "3" integer_list << 4 # => LPUSH myintegerlist "4" [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] == integer_list.elements # LRANGE 0 -1 unique_list = Kredis.unique_list "myuniquelist" unique_list.append(%w[ 2 3 4 ]) unique_list.prepend(%w[ 1 2 3 4 ]) unique_list.append([]) unique_list << "5" unique_list.remove(3) [ "1", "2", "4", "5" ] == unique_list.elements set = Kredis.set "myset", typed: :datetime set.add(DateTime.tomorrow, DateTime.yesterday) # => SADD myset "2021-02-03 00:00:00 +0100" "2021-02-01 00:00:00 +0100" set << DateTime.tomorrow # => SADD myset "2021-02-03 00:00:00 +0100" 2 == set.size # => SCARD myset [ DateTime.tomorrow, DateTime.yesterday ] == set.elements # => SMEMBERS myset head_count = Kredis.counter "headcount" 0 == head_count.value # => GET "headcount" head_count.increment head_count.increment head_count.decrement 1 == head_count.value # => GET "headcount" counter = Kredis.counter "mycounter", expires_in: 5.seconds counter.increment by: 2 # => SETEX "mycounter" 900 0 + INCR "mycounter" 2 2 == counter.value # => GET "mycounter" sleep 6.seconds 0 == counter.value # => GET "mycounter" enum = Kredis.enum "myenum", values: %w[ one two three ], default: "one" "one" == enum.value true == enum.one? enum.value = "two" "two" == enum.value enum.value = "four" "two" == enum.value enum.reset "one" == enum.value slots = Kredis.slots "myslots", available: 3 true == slots.available? slots.reserve true == slots.available? slots.reserve true == slots.available? slots.reserve true == slots.available? slots.reserve false == slots.available? slots.release true == slots.available? slots.reset flag = Kredis.flag "myflag" false == flag.marked? flag.mark true == flag.marked? flag.remove false == flag.marked? flag.mark(expires_in: 1.second) true == flag.marked? sleep 0.5.seconds true == flag.marked? sleep 0.6.seconds false == flag.marked? ``` And using structures on a different than the default `shared` redis instance, relying on `config/redis/secondary.yml`: ```ruby one_string = Kredis.string "mystring" two_string = Kredis.string "mystring", config: :secondary one_string.value = "just on shared" two_string.value != one_string.value ``` You can use all these structures in models: ```ruby class Person < ApplicationRecord kredis_list :names kredis_list :names_with_custom_key, key: ->(p) { "person:#{p.id}:names_customized" } kredis_unique_list :skills, limit: 2 kredis_enum :morning, values: %w[ bright blue black ], default: "bright" end person = Person.find(5) person.names.append "David", "Heinemeier", "Hansson" # => SADD person:5:names "David" "Heinemeier" "Hansson" true == person.morning.bright? person.morning.value = "blue" true == person.morning.blue? ``` ## Installation 1. Add the `kredis` gem to your Gemfile: `gem 'kredis'` 2. Run `./bin/bundle install` 3. Add a default configuration under `config/redis/shared.yml` A default configuration can look like this for `config/redis/shared.yml`: ```yaml production: &production host: <%= ENV.fetch("REDIS_SHARED_HOST", "127.0.0.1") %> port: <%= ENV.fetch("REDIS_SHARED_PORT", "6379") %> timeout: 1 development: &development host: <%= ENV.fetch("REDIS_SHARED_HOST", "127.0.0.1") %> port: <%= ENV.fetch("REDIS_SHARED_PORT", "6379") %> timeout: 1 test: <<: *development ``` Additional configurations can be added under `config/redis/*.yml` and referenced when a type is created. ## License Kredis is released under the [MIT License](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT).
