haraka-plugin-ioredis

Forked from haraka-plugin-redis. This fork replaces node_redis with ioredis. Configuration file uses YAML instead of INI.

Connects to a redis instance. By default it stores a redis connection handle at server.notes.redis. See below to get a custom DB handle attached to another database.

Config

The redis.yaml file has the following sections (defaults shown):

server:

# host=127.0.0.1
# port=6379
# db=0

pubsub:

# host=127.0.0.1
# port=6379

Publish & Subscribe are DB agnostic and thus have no db setting. If host and port and not defined, they default to the same as [server] settings.

opts:

# see https://www.npmjs.com/package/ioredis#connect-to-redis

Usage (shared redis)

Use redis in your plugin like so:

if (server.notes.redis) {
    server.notes.redis.hgetall(...);
        // or any other redis command
}

Publish/Subscribe Usage

In your plugin:

exports.results_init = function (next, connection) {
    var plugin = this;
    plugin.redis_subscribe(connection, function () {
        connection.notes.redis.on('pmessage', function (pattern, channel, message) {
            plugin.do_something_with_message(message, ...);
        });
        next();
    });
}
// be nice to redis and disconnect
exports.hook_disconnect = function (next, connection) {
    this.redis_unsubscribe(connection);
}

Custom Usage

This variation lets your plugin establish its own Redis connection, optionally with a redis db ID.

exports.register = function () {
    var plugin = this;
    plugin.inherits('redis');

    plugin.cfg = plugin.config.get('my-plugin.ini');

    // populate plugin.cfg.redis with defaults from redis.ini
    plugin.merge_redis_ini();

    // cluster aware redis connection(s)
    plugin.register_hook('init_master', 'init_redis_plugin');
    plugin.register_hook('init_child',  'init_redis_plugin');
}

When a db ID is specified in the [redis] section of a redis inheriting plugin, log messages like these will be emitted when Haraka starts:

[INFO] [-] [redis] connected to redis://172.16.15.16:6379 v3.2.6
[INFO] [-] [limit] connected to redis://172.16.15.16:6379/1 v3.2.6
[INFO] [-] [karma] connected to redis://172.16.15.16:6379/2 v3.2.6
[INFO] [-] [known-senders] connected to redis://172.16.15.16:6379/3 v3.2.6

Notice the database ID numbers appended to each plugins redis connection message.
