TIP: If you use only one db in redis, ignore this section.

Although I don't like the multi-db design of redis, provide two method using reids-multi-dbs flexible.

If I were you, I would use only #0 db.

method 1:

redisClient.configDBName({
    DEFAULT : 0,
    USERINFO: 1,
    STATICS : 11,
    TEST    : 15
});
var pack = redisClient.sha1pack(`
    local t = {}
    //Luckly, the initial db is always #0
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    select('TEST')
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    select('STATICS')
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    //Certainly, you can use db number directly
    select(1)
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    return t
`);

$ vi test.js
$ node test.js
[ 6, 1, 1, 3 ]

method 2:

exports = {
    DEFAULT = 0,
    USERINFO = 1,
    STATICS = 11,
    TEST = 15
}

var pack = redisClient.sha1pack(`
    local db = require('./conf.lua')
    local t = {}
    select(db.TEST)
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    select(db.STATICS)
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    select(1)
    table.insert(t, call('dbsize'))
    return t
`);

$ vi conf.lua
$ vi test.js
$ node test.js
[ 1, 1, 3 ]

Installation

npm install redis-embeded-lua

LUA API

require('file')

require like nodejs. Only support one level(and in embeded lua).

call(fmt, ...)

printf(3) + redis.call + redis-cli

pcall(fmt, ...)

printf(3) + redis.pcall + redis-cli

select(db)

• select index

    select(1)

• select dbname redisClient.configDBName(conf), then select(dbname);

    select('USERINFO')

return value

• success: nil
• fail: message

exists(key)

for examples:

    exists('foo')

return true or false

Instead of the following

if redis.call('exists', 'foo') == 1 then
    return true
else
    return false
end

JavaScirpt API

redisClient.evalScript(pack, arg1, arg2 ...)

• pack: object, return by redisClient.sha1pack(script). required
• arg1 - argn: arguments. optional

return Promise

redisClient.sha1pack(script)

• script: lua scirpt, string

return object

{
    text:"lua script...",
    sha1:"sha1num"
}

redisClient.configDBName(conf)

• conf object

{
    DEFAULT: 0,
    USERINFO: 1
}
