yii-redis Follow @yiiframework

WORKS if I modify ARedisCache flush():

public function flush() {
    return (bool) $this->getConnection()->getClient()->flushAll();
}

If you have a password-protected Redis server you can add the following property to ARedisConnection:

public $authString='';

And change getClient method from

    if ($this->_client === null) {
        $this->_client = new Redis;
        $this->_client->connect($this->hostname, $this->port);
    }
    return $this->_client;

to

    if ($this->_client === null) {
        $this->_client = new Redis;
        $this->_client->connect($this->hostname, $this->port);
        $this->_client->auth($this->authString); 
    }
    return $this->_client;

It would be nice if you could add this to your release!

Thanks much for the quick reply, my oversight, works a treat with Phpredis. I assume the flush issue wont' affect using it for Yii session management. I do wonder if using flushdb would be one way to get that to work -- obviously would assume that the db is used exclusively for cache.

This extension depends on phpredis, it may partly work with predis but its not supported. Flushing the cache is not currently supported, I will look into it

This looks great but I have a couple questions about setting up the environment - I have Predis (0.7.1) running and it works fine - when I load your extension

In order to avoid a "Redis.php - No such file", I needed to change the client connection from:
$this->_client = new Redis;
to:
$this->_client = new Predis\Client();

There are a couple other issues as well, like I needed to change your "delete" command to "del", and similarly I get "'flush' is not a registered Redis command" when trying to clear/flush the cache -- is that supposed to be flushdb or am I doing something wrong?

Also, Gustavo, is there any benefit to using this over your extension for Yii cache at this point?

Thanks much.

This will save a lot of work. Thanks!
