hapi-hiredis

============

Hapi (^8.0) plugin for `redis` with `hiredis` parser.

Why use this instead of simple hapi-redis?

------------------------------------------

+ `hiredis` parser is way faster than the plain javascript parser that comes by default with the node `redis` module.

+ Support for URLs. At least for me that's a major point, since I store all the data for connections in a simple URL string.

Install

-------

    npm install --save hiredis hapi-hiredis

Register plugin

---------------

You can pass as options either an URL (all are optionals, defaults to: no password, 127.0.01 and 6379) or `host` and `port`. Obviously passing an URL is way more convenient.

    var Hapi = require('hapi');

    var server = new Hapi.Server();

    server.register({

      register: require('hapi-hiredis'),

      opts: { url: 'redis://:[email protected]:port' }

    }, function (err) {

      if (err) console.error(err);

    });

Use plugin

----------

The object returned by `redis.createClient` is exposed on `server.plugins['hapi-hiredis'].client` and binded to the context on routes and extensions as `this.redis`.

    server.route({

      method: 'GET',

      path: '/hashes',

      handler: function (request, reply) {

        var redis = request.server.plugins['hapi-hiredis'].client;

        redis.hgetall('hashes', function (err, obj) {

          reply(obj);

        });

      }

    }, {

      method: 'GET',

      path: '/session',

      handler: function (request, reply) {

        var redis = this.redis;

        redis.get('session', function (err, obj) {

          reply(obj);

        });

      }

    });

If for any reason you need to use the `redis` library, then you can use it from `server.plugins['hapi-hiredis'].library`.
