# Redis stores for Ruby on Rails

__`redis-rails`__ provides a full set of stores (*Cache*, *Session*, *HTTP Cache*) for __Ruby on Rails__. See the main [redis-store readme](https://github.com/redis-store/redis-store) for general guidelines.

## Installation

```ruby
# Gemfile
gem "redis-rails" # Will install several other redis-* gems
```

## Usage

```ruby
# config/application.rb
config.cache_store = :redis_store, "redis://localhost:6379/0/cache", { expires_in: 90.minutes }
```

Configuration values at the end are optional. If you want to use Redis as a backend for sessions, you will also need to set:

```ruby
# config/initializers/session_store.rb
MyApplication::Application.config.session_store :redis_store, servers: "redis://localhost:6379/0/session"
```

You can also provide a hash instead of a URL

```ruby
config.cache_store = :redis_store, { host: "localhost",
                                     port: 6379,
                                     db: 0,
                                     password: "mysecret",
                                     namespace: "cache",
                                     expires_in: 90.minutes }
```

And similarly for the session store:

```ruby
MyApplication::Application.config.session_store :redis_store, servers: { host: "localhost",
                                                                         port: 6379,
                                                                         db: 0,
                                                                         password: "mysecret",
                                                                         namespace: "session"
                                                                       },
                                                                       expires_in: 90.minutes
```

And if you would like to use Redis as a rack-cache backend for HTTP caching, add [`redis-rack-cache`](https://github.com/redis-store/redis-rack-cache) to your Gemfile and add:

```ruby
# config/environments/production.rb
config.action_dispatch.rack_cache = {
  metastore: "redis://localhost:6379/1/metastore",
  entitystore: "redis://localhost:6379/1/entitystore"
}
```

## Usage with Redis Sentinel

```ruby
sentinel_config = {
  url: "redis://mymaster/0",
  role: "master",
  sentinels: [{
    host: "127.0.0.1",
    port: 26379
  },{
    host: "127.0.0.1",
    port: 26380
  },{
    host: "127.0.0.1",
    port: 26381
  }]
}

# configure cache, merging opts with sentinel conf
config.cache_store = :redis_store, sentinel_config.merge(
  namespace: "cache",
  expires_in: 1.days
)

# configure sessions, setting the sentinel config as the
# servers value, merging opts with the sentinel conf.
config.session_store :redis_store, {
  servers: sentinel_config.merge(
    namespace: "sessions"
  ),
  expires_in: 2.days
}
```

## Running tests

```shell
gem install bundler
git clone git://github.com/redis-store/redis-rails.git
cd redis-rails
bundle install
bundle exec rake
```

If you are on **Snow Leopard** you have to run `env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" bundle exec rake`
