NAME

Dancer::Plugin::Redis - easy database connections for Dancer applications

VERSION

version 0.8

DESCRIPTION

Provides an easy way to obtain a connected Redis database handle by simply calling the redis keyword within your Dancer application.

SYNOPSIS

use Dancer;
use Dancer::Plugin::Redis;

# Calling the redis keyword will get you a connected Redis Database handle:
get '/widget/view/:id' => sub {
    template 'display_widget', { widget => redis->get('hash_key'); };
};

dance;

Redis connection details are read from your Dancer application config - see below.

METHODS

redis

Keywords redis, that use your config to connect to redis

CONFIGURATION

Connection details will be taken from your Dancer application config file, and should be specified as, for example:

plugins:
    Redis:
        server: '127.0.0.1:6379'
        debug: 0
        encoding: utf8
        reconnect: 60
        password: yourpassword
        connections:
            test:
                server: '127.0.0.1:6380'
                debug: 1
                encoding: utf8
                password: yourpassword

server is the ip:port of redis server

debug activate the debug of redis

encoding activate auto encoding, if you want raw data, put nothing after encoding

reconnect is the number of second which try to reconnect if we have lost connection, default to 60

password pass AUTH to Redis if you use the requirepass config. You can skip this option if you don't have requirepass set.

GETTING A DATABASE HANDLE

Calling redis will return a connected database handle; the first time it is called, the plugin will establish a connection to the database, and return a reference to the DBI object. On subsequent calls, the same DBI connection object will be returned. The connection will be refresh automatically with the Redis reconnect option.

If you have declared named connections as described above in 'DEFINING MULTIPLE CONNECTIONS', then calling the database() keyword with the name of the connection as specified in the config file will get you a database handle connected with those details.
