CodeIgniter Redis

A CodeIgniter interface for the Redis data store. This library tries to adhere to the defined protocol, including responses.

Requirements

1. PHP 5+
2. CodeIgniter 2.0+
3. A Redis server compatible with the unified request protocol (Redis 1.2+)

Spark

This library is also released as a Spark. If you use this library in any other way, don't copy the autoload.php to your config directory.

Documentation

Configuration

This library expects a configuration file to function correctly. A template for this file is provided with the library.

Generic command

You can execute any command using the command() method, just like you're using redis-cli.

$this->redis->command('PING');

This library also support PHP's overloading functionality. This means you can call undefined methods, which are then dynamically created for you. These calls are routed to the generic __call() method. You can also pass in arrays.

$this->redis->hmset('foohash', array('key1' => 'value1', 'key2' => 'value2'));

Examples

Set a new key with a value and retrieve it again

$this->redis->set('foo', 'bar');

Get a value by its key

$this->redis->get('foo');

Delete a bunch of keys

$this->redis->del(array('foo', 'foo2'));

Contributing

I am a firm believer of social coding, so if when you find a bug, please fork my code on GitHub and squash it. I will be happy to merge it back in to the code base (and add you to the "Thanks to" section). If you're not too comfortable using Git or messing with the inner workings of this library, please open a new issue.
