Zero-dependency storage adapter for Keyv that works with many different Redis clients and supports cluster mode
This adapter also works with many Redis clients, whereas the official adapter bundles a specific version of ioredis.
We test with the the Keyv test suite, and we test with both a standard Redis server and a Redis cluster. If you are familiar with Redis cluster, you may know that many utlities that claim to be compatible with clusters, are not.
| Client | Compatible? | Notes | | :------------------------------------------------------------------ | :---------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | redis | ✅ Yes | Also known as node-redis; works with version 3 and the new version 4, which adds support for cluster mode; works in Promise mode or legacy callback mode | | ioredis | ✅ Yes | Works great in standard and cluster mode | | fakeredis | ✅ Yes | | | fast-redis-cluster2 | ✅ Yes | Cluster mode | | handy-redis | ✅ Yes | To use this client, pass
Why use this?
This adapter does more than the official @keyv/redis adapter. This adapter can be used with Redis cluster mode — the official adapter cannot. Of course it can also be used with standard, non-cluster, Redis servers.This adapter also works with many Redis clients, whereas the official adapter bundles a specific version of ioredis.
- ✅ Works with standard Redis servers
- ✅ Works Redis cluster servers
- ✅ Works with ioredis and many other Redis clients
- ✅ Passes all tests in the Keyv test suite
Tested clients
keyv-anyredis
works with any Redis client that implements a standard callback or Promise interface, including the two most popular clients, ioredis and node-redis.We test with the the Keyv test suite, and we test with both a standard Redis server and a Redis cluster. If you are familiar with Redis cluster, you may know that many utlities that claim to be compatible with clusters, are not.

Usage
const Keyv = require('keyv');
const { KeyvAnyRedis } = require('keyv-anyredis');
// Create a client here, using ioredis, redis, or any
// compatible library.
//
// For example, to create a cluster client using ioredis as
// described at https://github.com/luin/ioredis#cluster:
//
// const Redis = require('ioredis');
// const client = new Redis.Cluster(…cluster configuration…);
const store = new KeyvAnyRedis(client);
const keyv = new Keyv({ store });
Running tests
To run the unit tets, Docker must be running. Containers for Redis and Redis Cluster will be started so that tests can run against them.npm run test:docker
