For those seeking a means to convert redis "string" data to JSON object for easy parsing.

Special Thanks to my friend, Augustine Best and also Jerry for their amazing contributions.

How to use

step 1: Install reformat-date

npm install redistojson --save

step 2: Require the package in your project

const redistojson = require('redistojson');

step 3: Pass in the redis data you wish to convert as an argument -for example case 1: having a list of persons data

const redisData = "Persons,[name,adegoke,address,gentlemen in ikorodu,age,90,sex,masculine,pet,Bethy,wife,Mai,school,],[name,Augustine Best,address,Enugu,age,32,sex,male,pet,Cowboy,wife,Juin,school,FUTO],[name,Femi,address,Surulere,age,45,sex,male,pet,Cat,wife,Queen,school,UNILAG],[name,Peter,address,Ikeja,age,23,sex,male,pet,Dog,wife,Angela,school,OAU],[name,Betty,address,Porharcourt,age,21,sex,female,pet,Elephant,wife,princess,school,UNIBEN],[name,Jessie,address,Toronto,age,49,sex,male,pet,Goat,wife,Stephanie,school,Harvard]";

console.log(redistojson(redisData));

// result 
{
  Persons: [
    {
      name: 'adegoke',
      address: 'gentlemen in ikorodu',
      age: '90',
      sex: 'masculine',
      pet: 'Bethy',

    },
    {

      address: 'Enugu',
      age: '32',
      sex: 'male',
      pet: 'Cowboy',

  ]
}
