Comredis

Comredis is your comrade for Redis command generation in Elixir. It helps you generate correct commands with the right arity. You can then use your favorite client to push them to Redis.

It parses the Redis commands documentation and generates functions in compile-time. All functions are defined in the Comredis module.

Installation

Add the :comredis dependency to your mix.exs file:

defp dependencies do
  [{:comredis, ">= 0.0.0"}]
end

Then run $ mix deps.get to install it.

Examples

Comredis.client_list
#=> ["CLIENT", "LIST"]

Comredis.get("k")
#=> ["GET", "k"]

Comredis.mget(["k1", "k2"])
#=> ["MGET", "k1", "k2"]

Comredis.set("k", "v")
#=> ["SET", "k", "v"]

# Using SET with expire time. It allows only the options the command accepts
Comredis.set("k", "v", ex: 10)
#=> ["SET", "k", "v", "EX", 10]

You also get nice documentation for each command directly from the Redis' documentation. You can even check it out right off your IEx session.
