sa-redis

Installs basic redis setup with necessary system adjustments. Optional config patch.

If you have node, installs redis commander https://github.com/joeferner/redis-commander with option option_install_redis_commander: true

Example of use:

     - {
         role: "sa-redis"
       }

Advanced:

     - {
         role: "sa-redis",
         redis_bind_to: 0.0.0.0,
         redis_properties:
           - {regexp: "^bind *", line: "bind {{redis_bind_to}}"}
           - {regexp: "^requirepass *", line:"requirepass YOUR_SECURE_PASS"}
         option_install_redis_commander: true,
         option_install_using_chris_lea_ppa: true
       }

Creating the password:

$ redis-cli Run PING on redis console

127.0.0.1:6379> PING (error) NOAUTH Authentication required.

Now use AUTH and input your password.

127.0.0.1:6379> AUTH 84e5145797f2a1593a38677389c081630ce67cd3b5f272f3f750c5ae2cf50090 OK

If authentication is successful it will return OK. Now if you run PING again, it will return PONG as expected.

127.0.0.1:6379> PING PONG 127.0.0.1:6379>
