README

          
This is an incomplete, experimental Ruby FFI interface to [Hiredis][0].

It exists mainly as a tool to teach me about [Ruby's FFI interface][1] and, as such,

the location of the `libhiredis` library is hard-coded into `hiredis.rb` as being

`/usr/local/lib`. If you want to tinker with this yourself, make sure to amend that

path as necessary.

Prerequisites

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

* [Hiredis][0] 0.9.2 installed to `/usr/local/lib`.

Usage

=====

    # With the project's lib directory on your load path...

    require "helloredis"

    redis = Helloredis.new # defaults to connecting to 127.0.0.1:6379

    redis.set("foo", "bar")

    # => "OK"

    redis.get("foo")

    # => "bar"

    redis.lpush("mylist", "arnold")

    # => 1

    redis.lpush("mylist", "bob")

    # => 2

    redis.sort("mylist", :alpha => true, :order => :desc, :count => 1, :offset => 0)

    # => ["bob"]

See `spec/helloredis_spec.rb` for more usage information.
