Readme
Features
- Lightweight: minimal dependencies, only ioredis is required
- Performance: guaranteed at most one trip to Redis on each function call*, taking advantage of ioredis's pipelining and Lua scripts
- Drop-in replacement: use any existing sorted set as a leaderboard
- Clear interface: Promise-based & provides TypeScript definitions
- Periodic leaderboards: create recurring leaderboards: daily, weekly, monthly, etc or use a custom cycle
- Combine leaderboards: create a matrix of leaderboards: update, filter and retrieve multiple entries in a single call
- Export: export your leaderboards for long-term storage
- Tested: 100% code coverage
Quick Start
⚙️ Install
⚠️ For ioredis <= 4.x use [email protected]
, for ioredis >= 5.x use the latest version.
$ npm install redis-rank ioredis
Redis 2.6.12 or newer is required. The package ioredis is a peer dependency and must be installed separately.
🔗 Import and connect
ES5
const Redis = require('ioredis');
const { Leaderboard, PeriodicLeaderboard, LeaderboardMatrix } = require('redis-rank');
ES6
import { Redis } from 'ioredis';
import { Leaderboard, PeriodicLeaderboard, LeaderboardMatrix } from 'redis-rank';
You will have to provide a ioredis connection. See here for more information.
const client = new Redis({
host: "127.0.0.1",
port: 6379
});
You are ready, now read one of the examples linked below!
Examples
- Basic leaderboard usage
- Exporting a leaderboard
- Recurring leaderboards
- Custom cycles
- Clean stale leaderboards
- Matrix of leaderboards
- Showcasing leaderboards
API
Running tests
A Redis server in localhost without password is expected. You can create one easily with Docker like so:
docker run -p 6379:6379 -t -i --rm redis:latest
⚠️ Note: The database #15 will be flushed ⚠️
Run tests:
npm test
I tried with ioredis-mock but I experienced some issues with Lua scripts so we have to rely on a real Redis server (which I think is better anyway).
