Known issues

gotchaDo not confuse django-redis-cache with django-redis. They have different import paths and backends. django-redis-cache uses BACKEND = 'redis_cache.RedisCache' while django-redis uses 'django_redis.cache.RedisCache'.

fix

Ensure you install the correct library and use the correct backend string.

affects: all

breakingVersion 3.0.0 renamed the package from 'redis_cache' to 'django-redis-cache'. The import path changed from 'redis_cache' to 'redis_cache'? Actually, the module name is still 'redis_cache', but the pip package changed. Ensure you use 'pip install django-redis-cache'.

fix

If you previously installed 'redis-cache', you need to uninstall and install 'django-redis-cache'.

affects: >=3.0.0

deprecatedThe 'redis_cache.cache.RedisCache' class is deprecated; use 'redis_cache.RedisCache' directly.

fix

Update your CACHES settings: BACKEND = 'redis_cache.RedisCache'

affects: >=3.0.0
