cawasser / redis-playground

A project for playing with Redis from Clojure

redis-playground

FIXME: my new application.

Installation

Download from https://github.com/redis-playground/redis-playground

Usage

A Playground for experimenting with Redis and Redis Stream using carmine

Install Redis

First, you must have Redis (version 5 or later) installed and running. To download Redis, visit this page and follow the instructions for your operating system.

Windows users:

Windows is NOT a supported platform for Redis, so you will need to run Redis inside a Docker container.

docker pull redis

Once installed, start the container with:

docker run --name my-redis -p:6379:6379 -d redis

if you'd like to access the redis-cli, run:

docker exec -it my-redis sh

that should put you into a shell in the running container, where you can run:

redis-cli

to startup the redis cli interface. Run ping and you should get back PONG to test.

Mac users:

I suggest installing Redis via Homebrew

Working with the Playground

Use the deps.edn file to start a REPL and then begin evaluating code.

This repo is not designed to be run from the clojure.cli; just use the repl and experiment.
