@express-route-cache/redis

Redis adapter for @express-route-cache/core.

Installation

npm install @express-route-cache/redis ioredis

Usage

import { createCache } from "@express-route-cache/core";
import { createRedisAdapter } from "@express-route-cache/redis";

const cache = createCache({
  adapter: createRedisAdapter({
    url: "redis://localhost:6379",
    // OR pass ioredis options
    options: {
      password: "auth",
    },
  }),
  staleTime: 60,
});

Features

• High Performance: Uses native Redis MGET, SET EX, and INCR commands.
• Distributed: Perfect for multi-instance Express applications.
• Flexible: Accepts connection strings, ioredis options, or an existing ioredis instance.
• Safe Lifecycle Management: If you pass an existing client instance, the adapter will never call .quit() on it when tearing down, ensuring it won't kill connections shared by the rest of your app.
