Spring Data Redis

The primary goal of the Spring Data project is to make it easier to build Spring-powered applications that use new data access technologies such as non-relational databases, map-reduce frameworks, and cloud based data services. This modules provides integration with the [Redis] (http://code.google.com/p/redis/) store.

</repository> 

• Gradle:

repositories {
   maven { url "http://repo.springsource.org/libs-milestone" }
   maven { url "http://repo.springsource.org/libs-snapshot" }
}

// used for nightly builds
dependencies {
   compile "org.springframework.data:spring-data-redis:${version}"
}

Latest GA release is 1.0.2.RELEASE
Latest nightly is 1.0.3.BUILD-SNAPSHOT

Usage (for the impatient)

• Configure the Redis connector to use (here jedis):

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
  xsi:schemaLocation="
  http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd">
  
  <bean id="jedisFactory" class="org.springframework.data.redis.connection.jedis.JedisConnectionFactory"/>
  
  <bean id="redisTemplate" class="org.springframework.data.redis.core.RedisTemplate"
      p:connection-factory="jedisFactory"/>
</beans>

• Use RedisTemplate to interact with the Redis store:

String random = template.randomKey();
template.set(random, new Person("John", "Smith"));

• Use Redis 'views' to execute specific operations based on the underlying Redis type:

ListOperations<String, Person> listOps = template.listOps();
listOps.rightPush(random, new Person("Jane", "Smith"));
List<Person> peopleOnSecondFloor = listOps.range("users:floor:2", 0, -1);

Building

Spring Data Redis uses Gradle as its build system. To build the system simply run:

gradlew

from the project root folder. This will compile the sources, run the tests and create the artifacts.

To generate IDE-specific files, use

gradlew eclipse

or

gradlew idea 

depending on your editor.
