[then-redis](https://github.com/mjijackson/then-redis) is a small, promise-based [Redis](http://redis.io) client for [node.js](http://nodejs.org). It supports all the features of Redis in a simple, user-friendly package.
[then-redis](https://github.com/mjijackson/then-redis) is a fast, promise-based [Redis](http://redis.io) client for [node.js](http://nodejs.org). It's build on top of [node_redis](https://github.com/mranney/node_redis), so it's safe and stable.
The two major differences between then-redis and [node_redis](https://github.com/mranney/node_redis) are:
1. then-redis returns a [CommonJS Promises/A+ promise](http://promises-aplus.github.com/promises-spec/) when you issue a command
2. The entire codebase is very small (~300 LOC), just like Redis
then-redis gets out of your way as much as possible. Command arguments and return values are exactly what you see in [Redis' Command Reference](http://redis.io/commands)*.
then-redis uses [pipelining](http://redis.io/topics/pipelining) to issue all commands. This means that commands are issued over the socket connection as quickly as possible, and that subsequent commands do not need to wait to find out the result of previous commands before they are issued. Of course, if you need to find out the result of a previous command first, just use `then` (see the examples below).

### Usage
All of the usage examples assume the following:
To create a client:
var redis = require('then-redis');
```js
var redis = require('then-redis');
To create a client:
var db = redis.createClient();
var db = redis.createClient('tcp://localhost:6379');
var db = redis.createClient({
host: 'localhost',
port: 6379,
password: 'password'
});
```
var db = redis.createClient();
var db = redis.createClient('tcp://localhost:6379');
var db = redis.createClient({
host: 'localhost',
port: 6379
});
Once you have a client, you're ready to issue some commands. All [Redis commands](http://redis.io/commands) are present on the `Client` prototype and may be called with variable length argument lists*. Every command returns a promise for its result. [Pipelining](http://redis.io/topics/pipelining) happens automatically in most normal usage.
If you need to use [AUTH](http://redis.io/commands/auth) or [SELECT](http://redis.io/commands/select) you can include them in the auth segment of your URL or in the `password` and `database` properties of an object literal.
```js
// Simple set, incrby, and get
db.set('my-key', 1);
db.incrby('my-key', 5);
db.get('my-key').then(function (value) {
assert.strictEqual(value, 6);
});
var db = redis.createClient('tcp://1:password@localhost:6379');
var db = redis.createClient({
host: 'localhost',
port: 6379,
database: 1,
password: 'password'
});
// Multi-key set/get
db.mset({ a: 'one', b: 'two' });
db.mget('a', 'b').then(function (values) {
assert.deepEqual(values, [ 'one', 'two' ]);
});
Once you have a client, you're ready to issue some commands. All Redis commands are present on the `redis.Client` prototype and may be called with variable length argument lists.
// Sets
db.sadd('my-set', 1, 2, 3);
db.sismember('my-set', 2).then(function (value) {
assert.strictEqual(value, 1);
});
// Simple set, incrby, and get
db.set('my-key', 1);
db.incrby('my-key', 5);
db.get('my-key').then(function (value) {
assert.strictEqual(value, 6);
});
// Hashes
var originalHash = { a: 'one', b: 'two' };
db.hmset('my-hash', originalHash);
db.hgetall('my-hash').then(function (hash) {
assert.deepEqual(hash, originalHash);
});
// Multi-key set/get
db.mset({ a: 'one', b: 'two' });
db.mget('a', 'b').then(function (values) {
assert.deepEqual(values, [ 'one', 'two' ]);
});
// Transactions
db.multi();
db.incr('first-key');
db.incr('second-key');
db.exec().then(function (reply) {
assert.deepEqual(reply, [ 1, 1 ]);
});
// Sets
db.sadd('my-set', 1, 2, 3);
db.sismember('my-set', 2).then(function (value) {
assert.strictEqual(value, 1);
});
// Pubsub
var subscriber = redis.createClient();
subscriber.on('message', function (channel, message) {
console.log('Received message: ' + message);
});
subscriber.subscribe('my-channel').then(function () {
db.publish('my-channel', 'a message');
});
```
// Hashes
var originalHash = { a: 'one', b: 'two' };
db.hmset('my-hash', originalHash);
db.hgetall('my-hash').then(function (hash) {
assert.deepEqual(hash, originalHash);
});
If you don't like the variable-length argument lists, or you already have an array of arguments that you need to pass to a command, you can always call `client.send()` directly. It takes two arguments: 1) the name of the Redis command and 2) an array of command arguments.
// Transactions
db.multi();
db.incr('first-key');
db.incr('second-key');
db.exec().then(function (reply) {
assert.deepEqual(reply, [ 1, 1 ]);
});
```js
db.send('get', [ 'my-key' ]);
db.send('incrby', [ 'my-key', 5 ]);
db.send('mset', [ 'a', 'one', 'b', 'two' ]);
```
// Pubsub
var subscriber = redis.createClient();
subscriber.on('message', function (channel, message) {
console.log('Received message: ' + message);
});
subscriber.subscribe('my-channel').then(function () {
db.publish('my-channel', 'a message');
});

### Compatibility
db.send('get', [ 'my-key' ]);
db.send('incrby', [ 'my-key', 5 ]);
db.send('mset', [ 'a', 'one', 'b', 'two' ]);
For best results, it is recommended that you use Redis 2.6 or above.
When you create a client without explicitly calling `client.connect()` it will try to automatically establish a connection the first time you issue a command. While it's waiting for the connection to be established it will buffer all commands and then flush them in the correct order once the socket is open. This works beautifully most of the time (all the specs are written in this style), but it will throw if your connection fails for some reason.
### Installation
To be sure you have a good connection to the database before issuing any commands, call `client.connect()` or use the high-level `redis.connect(options)` method to create a client and connect in one call. Use `then` to wait for the response from Redis before continuing.
Using [npm](https://www.npmjs.org/):
// Create a separate client instance and connect() it.
var db = redis.createClient(options);
db.connect().then(function () {
db.get('my-key');
}, function (error) {
console.log('Failed to connect to Redis: ' + error);
});
$ npm install then-redis
// Or use redis.connect() to do both in one call.
redis.connect(options).then(function (db) {
db.get('my-key');
}, function (error) {
console.log('Failed to connect to Redis: ' + error);
});
### Issues
The [specs](https://github.com/mjijackson/then-redis/tree/master/spec) also have lots of good usage examples.
Please file issues on the [issue tracker on GitHub](https://github.com/mjackson/then-redis/issues).
### Testing
### Tests
To run the tests:
To run the tests in node, first start a redis server on the default port and host and then:
$ redis-server --port 6379
$ npm install
$ npm test
### Compatibility
For best results, it is recommended that you use Redis 2.6
