Lightning-fast, lightweight and reliable Redis client for Bun, Cloudflare Workers, Deno and web browsers.
import { RedisClient } from "@iuioiua/redis";
import { assertEquals } from "@std/assert/equals";
using redisConn = await Deno.connect({ port: 6379 });
const redisClient = new RedisClient(redisConn);
const reply1 = await redisClient.sendCommand(["SET", "hello", "world"]);
assertEquals(reply1, "OK");
const reply2 = await redisClient.sendCommand(["GET", "hello"]);
assertEquals(reply2, "world");- Supports RESPv2, RESP3, raw data, pipelining, pub/sub, transactions and Lua scripts.
- Compatible with timeouts and retries.
- One of the fastest Redis clients in Deno.
- Written to be easily understood and debugged.
- Encourages the use of actual Redis commands without intermediate abstractions.
This package currently doesn't correctly read replies that contain CRLF (\r\n)
within the message. For example, if a bulk string contains a CRLF, it'll only
return the message, up to that CLRF. The simple workaround for this is to use LF
(\n) for delimiting newlines, instead of CRLF.

Like Italian cooking, the design of this package is defined by what it doesn't do rather than what it does do. It doesn't extend the functionality of a TCP connection. It doesn't implement a method for each Redis command, of which there are hundreds. Instead, the Redis client consumes a TCP connection, lets the user write Redis commands, and returns the parsed result according to the RESP data type. The result is a design with fewer moving parts, fewer bugs, less maintenance, and a smaller footprint than other JavaScript implementations of Redis clients.
