To connect to a Redis server, you can use the redis-cli
command-line interface tool that comes with Redis.
Here are the steps to connect to a Redis server:
Open a terminal or command-line prompt.
Type redis-cli
in the command line and press Enter. If Redis is running on the same machine, it will connect to the default Redis server localhost
on port 6379
.
redis-cli
-h
and -p
options respectively.redis-cli -h redis.example.com -p 6380
-a
option followed by the password.redis-cli -h redis.example.com -p 6380 -a mypassword
After connecting to the Redis server, you can start executing Redis commands such as SET
, GET
, HSET
, HGETALL
, and many others.
Dragonfly is fully compatible with the Redis ecosystem and requires no code changes to implement.
