scredis

Scredis is a reactive, non-blocking and ultra-fast Scala Redis client built on top of Akka IO. It has been (and still is) extensively used in production at Livestream.

• Documentation
• Scaladoc

Features

• Supports all Redis commands up to v2.8.13
• Built on top of Akka non-blocking IO
• Super fast, see Benchmarks section below
• Automatic reconnection
• Automatic pipelining
• Transactions
• Pub/Sub
  • Subscribe selectively with partial functions
  • Tracked Subscribe and Unsubscribe commands (they return a Future as any other commands)
  • Automatically resubscribes to previously subscribed channels/patterns upon reconnection
• Customizable serialization and deserialization of command inputs and outputs
• Fully configurable
  • Akka dispatchers
  • Pipelined write batch size
  • Receive timeout
  • TCP buffer size hints
  • Request encoding buffer pool
  • Concurrent requests cap (bounded memory consumption)

Getting started

Binaries

Scredis 2.x.x is compatible with Scala 2.10 and 2.11. Binary releases are hosted on the Sonatype Central Repository.

resolvers += "Sonatype OSS Releases" at "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases/"

libraryDependencies += "com.livestream" %% "scredis" % "2.0.6"

Snapshots are hosted on a separate repository.

resolvers += "Sonatype OSS Snapshots" at "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/"

libraryDependencies += "com.livestream" %% "scredis" % "2.0.6-SNAPSHOT"

Quick example

import scredis._
import scala.util.{ Success, Failure }

// Creates a Redis instance with default configuration.
// See reference.conf for the complete list of configurable parameters.
val redis = Redis()

// Import internal ActorSystem's dispatcher (execution context) to register callbacks
import redis.dispatcher

// Executing a non-blocking command and registering callbacks on the returned Future
redis.hGetAll("my-hash") onComplete {
  case Success(content) => println(content)
  case Failure(e) => e.printStackTrace()
}

// Executes a blocking command using the internal, lazily initialized BlockingClient
redis.blocking.blPop(0, "queue")

// Subscribes to a Pub/Sub channel using the internal, lazily initialized SubscriberClient
redis.subscriber.subscribe("My Channel") {
  case message @ PubSubMessage.Message(channel, messageBytes) => println(
    message.readAs[String]()
  )
  case PubSubMessage.Subscribe(channel, subscribedChannelsCount) => println(
    s"Successfully subscribed to $channel"
  )
}

// Shutdown all initialized internal clients along with the ActorSystem
redis.quit()
