ocaml-redis implements the client spec of the Redis key-value store. This version is aimed to be compatible with Redis 2.2, and is not compatible with earlier versions.
>> let conn = Redis.create_connection ()
in
begin
Redis.lpush "redis" "works" conn;
Redis.lpush "redis" "fast" conn;
Redis.lpush "redis" "simple" conn;
List.map Redis.string_of_bulk_data
(Redis.lrange "redis" 0 2 conn);
end;;
["simple"; "fast"; "works"]
To build the library,
rake library
should do the trick. From there, you will have to statically link build/redis.cmx, build/redis.cmo and build/redis.cmi with your code.
To run all the unit tests, execute:
rake test
To run a simple smoke test on a redis server you do not mind completely wiping running on your localhost, execute:
rake smoke_test
