node-redis-connection-pool

A node.js connection pool for Redis.

About

node-redis-connection-pool is a high-level redis management object. It manages a number of connections in a pool, using them as needed and keeping all aspects of releasing active connections internal to the object, so the user does not need to worry about forgotten connections leaking resources.

Installation

npm install redis-connection-pool-manager

Usage

var redisPool = require('redis-connection-pool')('myRedisPool', {
    host: '127.0.0.1', // default
    port: 6379, //default
    // optionally specify full redis url, overrides host + port properties
    // url: "redis://username:password@host:port"
    max_clients: 30, // defalut
    perform_checks: false, // checks for needed push/pop functionality
    database: 0, // database number to use
    options: {
      auth_pass: 'password'
    } //options for createClient of node-redis, optional
  });

redisPool.set('test-key', 'foobar', function (err) {
  redisPool.get('test-key', function (err, reply) {
    console.log(reply); // 'foobar'
  });
});
