redis-stream

library0.1.0jsnpmunverified

Create arbitrary Node.js streams to and from Redis. Version 0.1.0 is the latest stable release. This package allows you to treat Redis commands as streams, enabling piping and transformation of Redis data using Node.js stream APIs. It provides a Redis constructor, a method to create command-specific streams, and parse utilities for handling Redis protocol responses. Key differentiators include built-in stream parsing for hgetall and direct network stream access.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

Redis

✓ var Redis = require('redis-stream')

✗ import Redis from 'redis-stream'

CJS only; no ESM support.

Redis.parse.hgetall

✓ var Redis = require('redis-stream'); Redis.parse.hgetall()

✗ require('redis-stream').hgetall()

Accessed via Redis.parse static object.

Redis.parse (function)

✓ var Redis = require('redis-stream'); Redis.parse(['info'])

✗ Redis.parse.info()

Redis.parse is a function for encoding commands.

Demonstrates creating a Redis client, obtaining a stream for LPUSH, and piping output to stdout.

var Redis = require('redis-stream'); var client = new Redis(6379, 'localhost', 0); var stream = client.stream('lpush'); stream.pipe(process.stdout); stream.write('mylist'); stream.write('hello'); // Writes: +OK\r\n+OK\r\n

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedPackage is unmaintained and may not support modern Node.js or Redis versions.

fix

Use ioredis or redis (node-redis) for streaming support.

affects: >=0.1.0

gotchaHost parameter is 'localhost' by default; typo in README says 'localhsot'.

fix

Ensure host string is correct: 'localhost'.

affects: 0.1.0

gotchaStreams are raw Redis protocol; output includes inline responses like +OK\r\n.

fix

Use Redis.parse helpers to parse responses.

affects: >=0.1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: Redis is not a constructor

Using ES6 import syntax instead of require.

fix

Replace 'import Redis from "redis-stream"' with 'var Redis = require("redis-stream")'.

Error: Redis connection refused

Default host 'localhost' not resolved or Redis not running.

fix

Start Redis or provide correct host/port to constructor.
