Use Redis as your cache system

Redis is a great cache system, it store the cache in ram and send it to the hard drive once in a while, so you dont lose when the pc shut down

Requirements ¶

PHP 5.2.x
Tested with Yii 1.1.5, should work with any 1.1.*
A redis server running

Usage ¶

Download and extract it on your extensions folder . The main file must be located in application.extensions.redis.CRedisCache

To setup :

define in the application's configuration array ( by default configs/main.php)

'components'=>array(
                'cache'=>array(
                        'class'=>'ext.redis.CRedisCache',
                        //if you dont set up the servers options it will use the default one 
                        //"host=>'127.0.0.1',port=>6379"
                        'servers'=>array(
                                array(
                                        'host'=>'server1',
                                        'port'=>6379,
                                ),
                                //if you use 2 servers
                                array(
                                        'host'=>'server2',
                                        'port'=>6379,
                                ),
                        ),
                ),
        ),

Be sure that its under components

then you can use any redis function by calling it normally Yii way, like :

//yii's default functions
Yii::app()->cache->get($name);
Yii::app()->cache->set($name,$value,$time);
//redis specific functions
Yii::app()->cache->{$function}($arg1,$arg2,$arg3);
//example of selecting a db
Yii::app()->getCache()->select(2);

PRedis 7.2 ?

Sorry, but at

https://github.com/nrk/predis

version is 0.8 ! What's 7.2?

Also, YiiRedis require a php extension and we CANNOT use it. I need a php pure library

yii redis

@realtebo it seems it's dead, I've upgraded the Predis to 7.2, and fixed it

it seems fine for my needs, but others are reporting that mget watch does not work see the yii forum link above

you might consider this alternative https://github.com/phpnode/YiiRedis

is it updated and mantained ?

We'd like to start using your extension for a large application.

It looks like a very good start point, could you tell me if this extensions is 'live', is maintened and keep updated ?
