<Callout type=“warning”> Experimental feature

Redis support is an experimental feature of Feldera. </Callout>

Feldera allows you to output data from a SQL view to Redis.

• The user configures the Redis connector with a subset of columns that serve as a unique key for the view.
• The connector stores each row from the view in Redis, using the specified columns as the Redis key.

<Callout type=“warning”> You must ensure that the selected columns form a unique key. Using a non-unique key can lead to data loss. </Callout>

Configuration

Required Transport Parameters

• connection_string - Redis connection string. The connection string follows the following format: redis://[<username>][:<password>@]<hostname>[:port][/[<db>][?protocol=<protocol>]] This is parsed by the redis crate (See docs: Connection Parameters ).

Optional Transport Parameters

• key_separator - Separator used to join multiple components into a single key. : by default.

Format parameters

Currently, only the json format is supported.

• key_fields - A list of columns used to form the key used in Redis.

Example

Consider a Feldera pipeline with table t0 and view v0 as defined below.

create table t0 (c0 int, c1 int, c2 varchar);
 
create materialized view v0 with (
'connectors' = '[
  {
    "transport": {
      "name": "redis_output",
      "config": {
        "connection_string": "redis://127.0.0.1:6379/0",
        "key_separator": ":"
      }
    },
    "format": {
        "name": "json",
        "config": {
          "key_fields": ["c0","c2"]
        }
    }
  }
]'
) as select * from t0;

We populate this table with an ad-hoc query as follows:

INSERT INTO t0 VALUES (1, 1, 'first')

The view v0 will select this row from the table t0. This will be pushed to redis as follows:

Key: 1:first Value: "{\"c0\":1,\"c1\":1,\"c2\":\"first\"}\n"

Key

The key is formed by combining the values of the columns specified in the connector definition via key_fields. You may specify a separator used to form this key by defining the key_separator field in the connector definition.

"config": {
  "key_fields": ["c0", "c1"],
  "key_separator": ":"
}

The key will be as follows: c0:c1
