Hi Folks,
I'm trying to create Redis Client using this
var redis = require('redis');
var redisClient = redis.createClient({host:'127.0.0.1', port:6379});

but it throws me this errors
else {
82 | cnx_options.port = +options.port || 6379;
83 | cnx_options.host = options.host || '127.0.0.1';

84 | cnx_options.family = !options.family && net.isIP(cnx_options.host) || (options.family === 'IPv6' ? 6 : 4);
| ^ 85 | this.address = cnx_options.host + ':' + cnx_options.port;
86 | } // Warn on misusing deprecated functions
87 |

Please anyone suggest any workaround on this.

Thanks

I am facing the same issue when I changed line 3 in redis index.js file to var net = require('net-browserify');

for sure this is not a proper solution or work around but this fixes the issue for now until finding i find a solution

I fixed App.tsx like this

import React from 'react';
import logo from './logo.svg';
import './App.css';

function App() {
const redis = require('redis');
let client:any = redis.createClient(6379, "127.0.0.1", {db: 3});
client.get("key", redis.print);

return (
        <div className="App">
            <header className="App-header">
            <p>
            Edit <code>src/App.tsx</code> and save to reload.
            </p>
            </header>
        </div>
       );

}

export default App;

It's wrong!!!

I printed net in App.tsx,
result like this:

net:
Object
proto:
constructor: ƒ Object()
hasOwnProperty: ƒ hasOwnProperty()
isPrototypeOf: ƒ isPrototypeOf()
propertyIsEnumerable: ƒ propertyIsEnumerable()
toLocaleString: ƒ toLocaleString()
toString: ƒ toString()
valueOf: ƒ valueOf()
defineGetter: ƒ defineGetter()
defineSetter: ƒ defineSetter()
lookupGetter: ƒ lookupGetter()
lookupSetter: ƒ lookupSetter()
get proto: ƒ proto()
set proto: ƒ proto()

The net module is the base Module of node.js, BUT it's miss in this tsx file!!!
WHY? And How Can I do?

Tried but still same issue and also need to add "net" and "tls" to the package.json file since its not present in the library.

Thanks in advance

Uncaught TypeError: net.createConnection is not a function
this error caused by line 197 in redis index.js
this.stream = net.createConnection(this.connection_options);
Anyone can help me please?
