Where to find complete Redis documentation?
|
|
-------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This README is just a fast "quick start" document. You can find more detailed
|
|
documentation here:
|
|
|
|
1) http://code.google.com/p/redis
|
|
2) Check the 'doc' directory. doc/README.html is a good starting point :)
|
|
|
|
Building Redis
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
It is as simple as:
|
|
|
|
% make
|
|
|
|
Redis is just a single binary, but if you want to install it you can use
|
|
the "make install" target that will copy the binary in /usr/local/bin
|
|
for default. You can also use "make PREFIX=/some/other/directory install"
|
|
if you wish to use a different destination.
|
|
|
|
You can run a 32 bit Redis binary using:
|
|
|
|
% make 32bit
|
|
|
|
After you build Redis is a good idea to test it, using:
|
|
|
|
% make test
|
|
|
|
Buliding using tcmalloc
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
tcmalloc is a fast and space efficient implementation (for little objects)
|
|
of malloc(). Compiling Redis with it can improve performances and memeory
|
|
usage. You can read more about it here:
|
|
|
|
http://goog-perftools.sourceforge.net/doc/tcmalloc.html
|
|
|
|
In order to compile Redis with tcmalloc support install tcmalloc on your system
|
|
and then use:
|
|
|
|
% make USE_TCMALLOC=yes
|
|
|
|
Note that you can pass any other target to make, as long as you append
|
|
USE_TCMALLOC=yes at the end.
|
|
|
|
Running Redis
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
To run Redis with the default configuration just type:
|
|
|
|
% cd src
|
|
% ./redis-server
|
|
|
|
If you want to provide your redis.conf, you have to run it using an additional
|
|
parameter (the path of the configuration file):
|
|
|
|
% cd src
|
|
% ./redis-server /path/to/redis.conf
|
|
|
|
Playing with Redis
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
You can use redis-cli to play with Redis. Start a redis-server instance,
|
|
then in another terminal try the following:
|
|
|
|
% cd src
|
|
% ./redis-cli
|
|
redis> ping
|
|
PONG
|
|
redis> set foo bar
|
|
OK
|
|
redis> get foo
|
|
"bar"
|
|
redis> incr mycounter
|
|
(integer) 1
|
|
redis> incr mycounter
|
|
(integer) 2
|
|
redis>
|
|
|
|
You can find the list of all the available commands here:

Enjoy!
