Introduction

So how do you use JRedis? Pull the code (r16) or download from github.

Details

JRedis is a specification and a reference implementation. Currently there is one implementation providing (blocking semantics on method calls) for a passive client (that uses the caller's thread to do its job).

This initial client can not be shared across threads, but you can certainly either put it behind a synchronized gate, or, fire up a whole bunch for each one of your threads, as you prefer.

If you do share an instance from behind a facade, do note that redis connections are stateful, and if you plan on using the facility to switch between dbs using jredis.select(db) SELECT db it is almost guaranteed to be bad idea to share a single connection across multiple threads. However, if you will not be using select, then there should be no problems with sharing a single connection from behind a facade. If switching dbs is required, then you will need to create dedicated JRedis instances per thread. (This is very much a server issue and not JRedis specific.)

Alright, that said, here is a barebones JRedis app -- HelloAgain:

 

package org.jredis.examples;

import org.jredis.ClientRuntimeException;
import org.jredis.Command;
import org.jredis.JRedis;
import org.jredis.RedisException;
import org.jredis.connector.ProviderException;
import org.jredis.ri.alphazero.JRedisClient;
import org.jredis.ri.alphazero.support.Encode;

public class HelloAgain {
        public static final String key = "jredis::examples::HelloAgain::message";
        public static void main(String[] args) {
                String password = "";
                if(args.length > 0) password  = args[0];
                new HelloAgain().run(password);
        }

        private void run(String password) {
                try {
                        JRedis  jredis = new JRedisClient();

                        if(!password.equals("")) 
                                jredis.auth(password);
                        
                        jredis.ping().select(13);
                        
                        if(!jredis.exists(key)) {
                                jredis.set(key, "Hello Again!");
                                System.out.format("Hello!  You should run me again!\n");
                                return;
                        }
                        
                        String msg = Encode.toStr ( jredis.get(key) );
                        
                        System.out.format("%s\n", msg);
                }
                catch (RedisException error){
                        if (error.getCommand()==Command.PING){
                                System.out.format("I'll need that password!  Try again with password as command line arg for this program.\n");
                        }
                }
                catch (ProviderException bug){
                        System.out.format("Oh no, an 'un-documented feature':  %s\nKindly report it.", bug.getMessage());
                }
                catch (ClientRuntimeException problem){
                        System.out.format("%s\n", problem.getMessage());
                }
        }
}

 The essentials:

 

1) Get a connection implementing JRedis interface. (You'll want to code to this interface to minimize the impact of changes behind the scene) like this:

 

  JRedis      jredis = new JRedisClient();

 2) Do you have a requirepass jredis in your 'redis.conf' ? Then do this:

 

  jredis.auth(password);

 3) Use the JRedis api, which is an analog of the Redis command set.

Want to bind a value to a key (map semantics)?

Use the Redis 'String' commands:

 

jredis.set(myKey, myValue); 

 What can 'myKey' be? Any java.lang.String value that does not contain \r, \n, and space. Other than that, Redis and JRedis support UTF-8 keys:

 

 String asciiKey = "ascii-key";
                        String utf8key_Russian = "фывапро";
                        String utf8key_Chinese = "漢字[汉字]";
                                                                                                String utf8key_Persian = "مهندس";
                        String variousKeys[] = {asciiKey, utf8key_Russian, utf8key_Chinese, utf8key_Persian};
                        String value = "some data";
                        
                        for(String key : variousKeys){
                                System.out.format("using %s as key for SET ...", key);
                                redis.set(key, value);
                                System.out.format("...and we get:\n\t  %s => '%s'\n", key, value);
                        }

 What can 'myValue' be?

JRedis is to the metal. So you can pass byte[]. In fact, if you are after high performance, you'll want to avoid passing java.lang.String, unless that is precisely what you want stored. Redis itself will accept anything for the value. You can pass up to 1MB of \r\n or zeros, if you feel like it. Its a blob.

So, do you have a Java (Serializable) object you want to add as a member of a set?

Here is how:

 

 // lets make a 100 SimpleBean instances and add them to our
                        // 'object_set' key (which is a Redis SET)

                        int objcnt = 100;
                        System.out.format ("Creating and saving %d Java objects to redis ...", objcnt);

                        for(int i=1; i<objcnt; i++){
                                // instance it
                                SimpleBean      obj = new SimpleBean ("bean #" + i);

                                // get the next available object id from our Redis counter using INCR command
                                int id = redis.incr("SimpleBean::next_id")

                                // we can bind it a unique key using map (Redis "String") semantics now
                                String key = "objects::SimpleBean::" + id;

                                // voila: java object db
                                redis.set(key, obj);
                                
                                // and lets add it to this set too since this is so much fun
                                redis.sadd("object_set", obj);
                        }

                        System.out.format (" and done.\n");

 And how do I get my values back to proper types?

So, to repeat, Redis treats values as blobs, just byte[]s, so JRedis api reflects that and returns either byte[] or List<byte[]> (for set and list ops).

So, to help out there is (as of r16 but this will be improved so remember this bit is in flux), Encode.

Here's how we get our objects back using Encode.decode(byte[] bytes), which which have imported using import static to make things easier:

 

 // lets get all those objects in that object set
                        // (Remember: JRedis is NOT maintaining a type system for you, so
                        // if you have other kinds of blobs in that set, the object stream is not going to like it

                        List<SimpleBean>  members = decode (redis.smembers("object_set"));

                        for(SimpleBean obj : members) {
                                System.out.format("a member of 'object-set' => %s\n", obj.toString());
                        }

 And there you are.

byte[]s go in, and byte[]s come out. If you want to convert to Number and String, check out the methods in DefaultCodec class.

And its as simple as that.

/Enjoy!
