Options

• host A string containing redis server host (default: '127.0.0.1')
• port The port number to connect to redis on (default: 6379)
• prefix An optional prefix for each redis key, in case you are sharing your redis servers with something generating its own keys.
• client Pre-connected redis client to use, rather than creating our own. Causes all other options besides prefix to be ignored (default: undefined)
• ... The rest of the options will be passed directly to the node-redis constructor.
