Terminal client for Redis with auto-completion and syntax highlighting.

Project description

IRedis (Interactive Redis)

CircleCI PyPI version Python version Chat on telegram Open in Cloud Shell

A Terminal Client for Redis with AutoCompletion and Syntax Highlighting. It is an alternative for redis-cli. IRedis is supposed to friendly for both user and redis-server, which means it is safe to use IRedis on production server. IRedis provide a --strict mode to prevent accidently running dangerous command, like KEYS *(See here, the Latency generated by slow commands section.

This project is under development, any comments are welcome.

Features

  • Advanced code completion. If you run command KEYS then run DEL, iredis will auto complete your command based on KEYS result.
  • Command validation,(eg. try CLUSTER MEET IP PORT, iredis will validate IP and PORT for you)
  • Command highlighting, fully based on redis grammar. Any valide command in iredis shell is a valide redis command.
  • Ctrl + C to clear cureent line, won't exit redis-cli. Use Ctrl + D
  • Say "Goodbye!" to you when you exit!
  • Ctrl + R to open reverse-i-search to search through command history.
  • Auto suggestions. (Like fish shell.)
  • Support --encode=utf-8, to decode Redis' bytes responses.
  • Command hint on bottom, include command syntax, supported redis version, and time complexity.
  • Offcial docs build in HELP command, try HELP SET!

Install

pip install iredis

Usage

Once you install IRedis, you will know how to use it. Just remember, IRedis support similar options like redis-cli, like -h for redis-server's host and -p for port.

$ iredis --help

IRedis support config files. The options from command line will always be the highest priority. The config files from high priority to low is:

  • Options from command line
  • $PWD/.iredisrc
  • ~/.iredisrc (this path can be changed with iredis --iredisrc $YOUR_PATH)
  • /etc/iredisrc
  • default config in iredis package.

You can copy the self-explained default config here:

And then make your own changes.

Development

Release Strategy

The IRedis project was build and released by CircleCI, whenever a tag was pushed to master branch, a new release will be built and uploaded to pypi.org, it's very convenient.

Thus, we release as often as possible, so users can always enjoy the new features and bugfixes very quickly. Any bugfix or new feature will get at least a patch release, the big feature will get a minor release.

Setup Environment

iredis favors poetry as a packagement tool. You can setup a develop envioment on your computer easily.

First, install poetry(You can do it in a python's virtualenv):

pip install poetry

Then run(which euqals pip install -e .):

poetry install

Be careful running testcases, it may flush you db!!!

Development Logs

Since this is a commandline tool, so we didn't write logs to stdout.

You can tail -f ~/.iredis.log to see logs, the log is pretty clear, you can see what actually happend from log files.

Command Reference

There is a full Redis command list in commands.csv file, downloaded by:

python scripts/download_redis_commands.py > data/commands.csv

commands.csv is here only for test if redis.io was updated, do not package it into release.

Current implemented commands: command_syntax.csv.

Planned Features

Please see issue. And you are welcome to submit one.
