Redis Channels
Dirt simple Redis-based pubsub channels.
ORLY
That sounds tasty!
I thought so too.
Why?
This began as research for a more involved Redis-based research. I wanted to explore the pure pubsub capabilities of Redis and how node_redis interacts with it.
Why not just use node_redis?
Go for it. Each subscriber requires a dedicated client, so I wanted a way to abstract out that requirement.
Will the API change?
Most likely. The heavy lifting is done by node_redis. It's the abstraction layer that's important here.
