redis-simple-client v1.0.6

Package

Simple Redis

This package is an abstraction layer on redis package to make functions more easy and with async/await usage in NodeJS. It's completelly written in TypeScript. It lets you use it for the Dictionary and also for the pub/sub system.

Installation

npm install redis-simple-client

Usage

const RedisSimpleClient = require('redis-simple-client');
const redis = new RedisSimpleClient();

Usage for dictionary

async function test(){
  // You can set the URL for the connection, if the third argument is FALSE you will NOT use it for pub/sub.
  // The prefix helps you using the same redis client for different apps in the same database.
  // You will have prefix_variable, prefix_variable2, etc. in the redis store. 
  await redis.connect('redis://localhost:6379', 'prefix_', false);
  
  // Set and get variables.
  await redis.set('variable','value');
  const variable = redis.get('variable');
  console.log(variable); // outputs: 'value'
  
  // Set and get many variables.
  const variables = {
    var1: 'Testing 1',
    var2: 'Testing 2',
    var10: 'Testing 3',
  };
  await redis.setMany(variables);
  let results = redis.getMany([var1,var2]);
  console.log(results); // Outputs: {var1: 'Testing 1', var2: 'Testing 2'}
  
  results = redis.getManyWithPattern('var1*');
  console.log(results); // Outpus: {var1: 'Testing 1', var10: 'Testing 3'}
  
  // Deleting values
  await redis.del(['var1']);
  await redis.delWithPattern('var1*'); // Will delete var1 and var10.
  
  // Counting and getting keys with patterns.
  await redis.keys('*'); //  Output: ['var2']
  await redis.count('*'); // Output: 1.
  
  // Get how many functions you realized.
  console.log(redis.getCounts()); / Output {get: 2, set: 5, count: 3...}.

  // Close the connection.
  await redis.close();
}

Usage for pub/sub system

async function test(){
  // You will still be able to use dictionary functions, but with TRUE you will also be able to use pub/sub.
  await redis.connect('redis://localhost:6379', 'prefix_', true);
  
  await redis.subscribe('CHANNEL', (message) => console.log(message));
  await redis.publish('CHANNEL', 'Hello!'); // Console will log "Hello!".
  await redis.unsubsribe('CHANNEL');
  await redis.close();
}
