store and query json objects in redis lists

installation

install package itself with:

npm install redis-object-store

module also depends on redis:

npm install redis

you maybe want to use hiredis too:

npm install hiredis

usage

// examples/example-1.js

var RedisObjectStore = require ('redis-object-store'),
	redis = require ('redis');

var redisClient = redis.createClient ();

var store = new RedisObjectStore ('test', redisClient);

var doc = {
	foo: 'foo',
	bar: 1
};

store.insert (doc, function (err) {
   store.query ({
        foo: 'foo'
   }, function (err, result) {
        console.log (result); // -> [{foo:"foo",bar:1}]
   });
});

interface

.constructor (name:String, redis:RedisClient, [options])

where options follows the schema:

options = {
    blockSize: 100,
    serialize: function (object) {
        return JSON.stringify (object);
    },
    parse: function (string) {
        return JSON.parse (string);
    }
}

.insert (documents, [function(err)])

documents may be single object as well as array of objects

.query ([mongodbQuery], function(err, result)]

mongodbQuery is parsed by sift

internals

module store inserted objects in redis list as follow:

this.redis.rpush (this.name, this.serialize(document))

module fetches documents from redis as follow:

this.redis.lrange (this.name, 0, length, function (err, result) {
    var parsedResults = [],
        sifted = sift (mongodbQuery);
    results.forEach (function(data){
        parsedResults.push (this.parse(data));
    });
    callback (err, sifted(parsedResults));
});
