# Welcome!

The `pub` utility publishes input from stdin to a redis channel and the `sub`
utility consumes from a redis channel, writing to stdout.

## Quickstart
Publishing to Redis from `stdin` is easy with the `pub` utility:
```shell
$ pub --help
Pipe stdin to a redis pub/sub channel

Usage: pub --channel TEXT [--host STRING] [--port INTEGER] [--db INTEGER]
[--version]

Available options:
-h,--help Show this help text
--channel TEXT Redis channel to publish to
--host STRING Redis host (default: localhost)
--port INTEGER Redis post (default: 6379)
--db INTEGER Redis db (default: 0)

$ journalctl -f nginx.service | pub --channel "nginx-loglines"
```

and subscribing to Redis channels and piping to `stdout` is also easy with the
`sub` utility:

```shell
$ sub --help
Subscribe to redis channels and pipe to stdout

Usage: sub [--channel TEXT]... [--host STRING] [--port INTEGER] [--db INTEGER]
[--version]

Available options:
-h,--help Show this help text
--channel TEXT... Redis channel(s) to subscribe to
--host STRING Redis host (default: localhost)
--port INTEGER Redis post (default: 6379)
--db INTEGER Redis db (default: 0)

$ sub --channel "nginx-loglines" --channel "haproxy-loglines" # This subscribes to both redis channels
```

## Building
