This extension provides the [redis](https://redis.io/) connection support for the [Yii framework](https://www.yiiframework.com).
It includes a `Cache` and `Session` storage handler and implements the `ActiveRecord` pattern that allows
you to store active records in redis.
## Support version
| PHP | Redis Version | CI-Actions |
|-----|---------------|------------|
|**7.4 - 8.0**| **4 - 6**|[](https://github.com/yiisoft/db-redis/actions?query=workflow%3Abuild) [](https://dashboard.stryker-mutator.io/reports/github.com/yiisoft/db-redis/master) [](https://github.com/yiisoft/db-redis/actions?query=workflow%3A%22static+analysis%22) [](https://shepherd.dev/github/yiisoft/db-redis)
## Requirements
- Redis version 2.6.12 or higher.
- `Filter` PHP extension.
## Installation
The package could be installed with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):
```shell
composer require yiisoft/db-redis
```
## General usage
Using `yiisoft/composer-config-plugin` automatically get the settings of `EventDispatcherInterface::class` and `LoggerInterface::class`.
Di-Container:
```php
use Yiisoft\Db\Redis\Connection as RedisConnection;
return [
RedisConnection::class => [
'__class' => RedisConnection::class,
'host()' => [$params['yiisoft/db-redis']['dsn']['host']],
'port()' => [$params['yiisoft/db-redis']['dsn']['port']],
'database()' => [$params['yiisoft/db-redis']['dsn']['database']],
'password()' => [$params['yiisoft/db-redis']['password']]
]
];
```
Params.php
```php
return [
'yiisoft/db-redis' => [
'dsn' => [
'driver' => 'redis',
'host' => '127.0.0.1',
'database' => 0,
'port' => 6379
],
'password' => null,
]
];
```
## Configuring application
To use this extension, you have to configure the `Yiisoft\Db\Redis\Connection|Connection` class in your application configuration:
```php
return [
//....
'components' => [
'redis' => [
'class' => 'Yiisoft\Db\Redis\Connection',
'hostname' => 'localhost',
'port' => 6379,
'database' => 0,
],
]
];
```
This provides the basic access to redis storage via the `redis` application component:
```php
Yii::$app->redis->set('mykey', 'some value');
echo Yii::$app->redis->get('mykey');
```
See [Yiisoft\Db\Redis\Connection] for a full list of available methods.
