Support for url as a connect option?

[OrcaXS]

It's more convenient than separate host/port options in some environments, like CI.
Since https://github.com/luin/ioredis supports redis:// directly ootb, it would make the transition easier if tedis could support this as well.

Thanks!

@OrcaXS I did a fork of this project (https://github.com/danielfroz/tedis). Also wanted URL.... so it's implemented in this fork. Examples under .spec.ts files.

@danielfroz PR possible?

[danielfroz]

hi @randallb it is possible. The thing here is that tedis has problems with the parser and not supporting Streams / PUB SUB, etc... So created this fork to support my needs. Didn't receive any reply to my comment / issue. Perhaps not desired. Not sure....
In either case tedis fork mentioned is working ok.
Anyways... will check later the current status of this project - maybe contribute with PR for everything - again not sure as I am really busy with other things.

@danielfroz Nice work! Thanks!

How does one use your fork?

[danielfroz]

Hi @sudo-kaizen . You either reference it locally (path reference locally) or create a private repository and deploy it ... something like @sudo-kaizen/tedis.

But honestly not sure if you will need it . Long time I don't follow Tedis development... so maybe the author already fixed the code and implemented the requested feature. Would check the code first before testing my fork.

Hope this helps

Yup! I eventually ended up using handy-redis though.

Thanks
