Node: new Redis()github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/redis

Client.New

Overview

New connects to addr (host:port).

If you are coming from Node.js, the closest pattern is new Redis().

Method on Client — call it on a value of that type after constructing or receiving one from a constructor.

Signature

func New(addr string) *Client

Compare: Node.js · Standard Go · gox

Node.js

const redis = new Redis();

Standard Go

rdb := redis.NewClient(&redis.Options{Addr: addr})
val, err := rdb.Get(ctx, key).Result()

gox

import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/redis"

rdb, err := redis.New("localhost:6379")

Example

import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/redis"

rdb, err := redis.New("localhost:6379")

Tips

Pass context.Context as the first argument so cancellation and deadlines propagate correctly.

Standard library alternative

Use the standard library directly:

rdb := redis.NewClient(&redis.Options{Addr: addr})
val, err := rdb.Get(ctx, key).Result()
