5.1.0

Changes

🚀 New Features

• Client-side caching (#3350, #3110, #3102, #3099, #3089, #3038)

How to start with Client-side caching?

1. Install redis-py 5.1.0
2. Use the following code snippet:

r = Redis(protocol=3, cache_config=CacheConfig())

cache = r.get_cache()
r.set("foo", "bar")
# get key from redis and save in local cache
print(r.get("foo"))
# get key from local cache
print(cache.get(CacheKey(command="GET", redis_keys=("foo",))).cache_value)
# change key in redis (cause invalidation)
r.set("foo", "barbar")
# Retrieves a new value from server and cache it
print(r.get("foo"))
# Make sure that new value was cached
print(cache.get(CacheKey(command="GET", redis_keys=("foo",))).cache_value)
