redis-gzip

Automatically gzip and gunzip on calls to new methods: setz, getz, mgetz

example

var redz = require('redis-gzip');
var redis = require('redis');

var client = redz(redis.createClient());

client.setz('zkey', 'z nice long value that shall be compressed with gzip', function (err, result) {
	client.getz('zkey', function (err, result) {
		console.log(arguments);

		client.end();
	});
});

api

redz = require('redis-gzip')

Get a reference to the module

client = redz(redisClient)

• redisClient: the redis client to which you want to add gzip functions

client.setz(key, val, cb)

Store a key/value pair to redis where the value is first gzipped

• key: the key name where you want to store val
• val: the value that will be stored compressed
• cb(err, result): called when gzipped saved to redis

client.getz(key, cb)

Get a value from redis and gunzip it before returning it

• key: the key whose value you want to retrieve
• cb(err, result): called with gunzipped results from redis

client.mgetz(keys, cb)

Get multiple values based on multiple keys from redis. Each value is gunzipped before being returned

• keys: array: an array of keys whose values are to be returned
• cb(err, result):
  • err: an error message from redis or gunzip if any
  • result: array: gunzipped values for each of the requested keys
