redisclient

Build master status:

Build develop status:

Current version: 0.5.2.

Boost.asio based Redis-client header-only library. Simple but powerfull.

This version requires С++11 compiler. If you want to use this library with old compiler, use version 0.4: https://github.com/nekipelov/redisclient/tree/v0.4.

Get/set example:

#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/asio/io_service.hpp>
#include <boost/asio/ip/address.hpp>
#include <redisclient/redissyncclient.h>

int main(int, char **)
{
    boost::asio::ip::address address = boost::asio::ip::address::from_string("127.0.0.1");
    const unsigned short port = 6379;

    boost::asio::io_service ioService;
    redisclient::RedisSyncClient redis(ioService);
    std::string errmsg;

    if( !redis.connect(address, port, errmsg) )
    {
        std::cerr << "Can't connect to redis: " << errmsg << std::endl;
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }

    redisclient::RedisValue result;

    result = redis.command("SET", {"key", "value"});

    if( result.isError() )
    {
        std::cerr << "SET error: " << result.toString() << "\n";
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }

    result = redis.command("GET", {"key"});

    if( result.isOk() )
    {
        std::cout << "GET: " << result.toString() << "\n";
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
    }
    else
    {
        std::cerr << "GET error: " << result.toString() << "\n";
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
}

Async get/set example:

#include <string>

#include <boost/asio/io_service.hpp>
#include <boost/asio/ip/address.hpp>

#include <redisclient/redisasyncclient.h>

{

    {
        redis.command("SET", {redisKey, redisValue}, [&](const redisclient::RedisValue &v) {
            std::cerr << "SET: " << v.toString() << std::endl;

            redis.command("GET", {redisKey}, [&](const redisclient::RedisValue &v) {
                std::cerr << "GET: " << v.toString() << std::endl;

                redis.command("DEL", {redisKey}, [&](const redisclient::RedisValue &) {
                    ioService.stop();
                });
            });
        });
    }
    else
    {
        std::cerr << "Can't connect to redis: " << errmsg << std::endl;
    }
}

int main(int, char **)
{

Also you can build the library like a shared library. Just use -DREDIS_CLIENT_DYNLIB and -DREDIS_CLIENT_BUILD to build redisclient and -DREDIS_CLIENT_DYNLIB to build your project.
