library0.0.5jsnpmunverified

A Node-RED node to save data to a Redis database. Version 0.0.5 is the latest stable release. This node provides simple output to Redis with support for Hash, Set, List, and String types. Requires a local Redis server. Maintenance is low; the package has not been updated recently and is part of the node-red-nodes collection. Differentiator: integrates directly into Node-RED flows.

Known issues

gotchaRequires a locally running Redis server; no connection error if not present.

fix

Ensure Redis server is running on localhost:6379 before deploying flow.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaIf key is blank, msg.topic is used as key. Ensure msg.topic is set.

fix

Set msg.topic property in preceding nodes or specify a key in the node configuration.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaFor type 'hash', payload must be an object or field=value string; other types may cause errors.

fix

Use a function node to format payload correctly before the redis node.

affects: >=0.0.0
