Docker Image: gostatic/redis

The main purpose of this image is to support password protected master/slave Redis with minimal configuration.

Versions

Not all upstream versions are supported. We only tend to support Ubuntu (for compatibility) and Alpine (small image size).

• 3.2.11
• 3.2.11-alpine
• 4.0.14
• 4.0.14-alpine

Configuration

Master

REDIS_PASS # This is the password required to authenticate against the server.

Default is to run in master mode

docker run -t -e REDIS_PASS=masterpass -p 6379:6379 gostatic/redis

Slave

The slave must be linked to a container called redis-master exposed via port 6379. This is currently a hard coded limitation.

REDIS_MASTERAUTH # Password to use when connecting to redis://redis-master:6379

In order to activate "slave mode", pass in the config path at runtime:

docker run -t -e REDIS_PASS=slavepass -e REDIS_MASTERAUTH=masterpass -p 6379:6379 gostatic/redis redis-server /usr/local/etc/redis/redis-slave.conf
