Redis client library for Ocaml

ocaml-redis implements the client spec of the Redis key-value store. This version is aimed to be compatible with Redis 2.2, and is not compatible with earlier versions.

Example Usage

>> let conn = Redis.create_connection ()
in
begin
    Redis.lpush "redis" "works" conn;
    Redis.lpush "redis" "fast" conn;
    Redis.lpush "redis" "simple" conn;
    List.map Redis.string_of_bulk_data
        (Redis.lrange "redis" 0 2 conn);
end;;
["simple"; "fast"; "works"]

Building

To build the library,

make

should do the trick. From there, you will have to statically link _build/src/redis.cmx, _build/src/redis.cmo and _build/src/redis.cmi with your code.

Testing

To run a simple smoke test on a redis server you do not mind completely wiping running on your localhost, execute:

make test

To run the Redis instance use redis-server redis.conf from the root of the project.
