redis-sync

A node.js redis replication slave toolkit.

redis-sync implements the replication slave side of the SYNC command, streaming in all commands that modify the dataset. It can also use rdb-parser to parse the dataset dump that precedes the commands.

Installation

npm install redis-sync

Usage

var redisSync = require('redis-sync');
var sync = new redisSync.Sync();
 
sync.on('command', function(command, args) {
  console.log('command', command, args);
});
 
sync.on('inlineCommand', function(buffers) {
  // the server sends regular PING commands
  console.log('inline command', buffers);
});
 
sync.on('error', function(err) {
  console.error(err);
});
 
sync.on('end', function() {
  console.log('end');
});
 
sync.connect();

Upon connection, the master will transfer the entire database in RDB format, before sending any commands. redis-sync will use rdb-parser to parse it as it streams in, if you pass true to Sync

var redisSync = require('redis-sync');
var sync = new redisSync.Sync(true);
 
sync.rdb.on('entity', function(e) {
  console.log(e);
});
sync.rdb.on('error', function(err) {
  console.error(err);
});
sync.rdb.on('end', function() {
  console.log('end of rdb');
});
