Fast Redis compatible server framework for Go
Redcon is a custom Redis server framework for Go that is fast and simple to use. The reason for this library it to give an efficient server front-end for the BuntDB and Tile38 projects.
Features
- Create a Fast custom Redis compatible server in Go
- Simple interface. One function
ListenAndServeand two typesConn&Command - Support for pipelining and telnet commands
- Works with Redis clients such as redigo, redis-py, node_redis, and jedis
- TLS Support
- Compatible pub/sub support
- Multithreaded
Installing
go get -u github.com/tidwall/redcon
Example
Here's a full example of a Redis clone that accepts:
- SET key value
- GET key
- DEL key
- PING
- QUIT
- PUBLISH channel message
- SUBSCRIBE channel
You can run this example from a terminal:
go run example/clone.go
package main
import (
"log"
"strings"
"sync"
"github.com/tidwall/redcon"
)
var addr = ":6380"
func main() {
var mu sync.RWMutex
var items = make(map[string][]byte)
var ps redcon.PubSub
go log.Printf("started server at %s", addr)
err := redcon.ListenAndServe(addr,
func(conn redcon.Conn, cmd redcon.Command) {
switch strings.ToLower(string(cmd.Args[0])) {
default:
conn.WriteError("ERR unknown command '" + string(cmd.Args[0]) + "'")
case "ping":
conn.WriteString("PONG")
case "quit":
conn.WriteString("OK")
conn.Close()
case "set":
if len(cmd.Args) != 3 {
conn.WriteError("ERR wrong number of arguments for '" + string(cmd.Args[0]) + "' command")
return
}
mu.Lock()
items[string(cmd.Args[1])] = cmd.Args[2]
mu.Unlock()
conn.WriteString("OK")
case "get":
if len(cmd.Args) != 2 {
conn.WriteError("ERR wrong number of arguments for '" + string(cmd.Args[0]) + "' command")
return
}
mu.RLock()
val, ok := items[string(cmd.Args[1])]
mu.RUnlock()
if !ok {
conn.WriteNull()
} else {
conn.WriteBulk(val)
}
case "del":
if len(cmd.Args) != 2 {
conn.WriteError("ERR wrong number of arguments for '" + string(cmd.Args[0]) + "' command")
return
}
mu.Lock()
_, ok := items[string(cmd.Args[1])]
delete(items, string(cmd.Args[1]))
mu.Unlock()
if !ok {
conn.WriteInt(0)
} else {
conn.WriteInt(1)
}
case "publish":
if len(cmd.Args) != 3 {
conn.WriteError("ERR wrong number of arguments for '" + string(cmd.Args[0]) + "' command")
return
}
conn.WriteInt(ps.Publish(string(cmd.Args[1]), string(cmd.Args[2])))
case "subscribe", "psubscribe":
if len(cmd.Args) < 2 {
conn.WriteError("ERR wrong number of arguments for '" + string(cmd.Args[0]) + "' command")
return
}
command := strings.ToLower(string(cmd.Args[0]))
for i := 1; i < len(cmd.Args); i++ {
if command == "psubscribe" {
ps.Psubscribe(conn, string(cmd.Args[i]))
} else {
ps.Subscribe(conn, string(cmd.Args[i]))
}
}
}
},
func(conn redcon.Conn) bool {
// Use this function to accept or deny the connection.
// log.Printf("accept: %s", conn.RemoteAddr())
return true
},
func(conn redcon.Conn, err error) {
// This is called when the connection has been closed
// log.Printf("closed: %s, err: %v", conn.RemoteAddr(), err)
},
)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
TLS Example
Redcon has full TLS support through the ListenAndServeTLS function.
The same example is also provided for serving Redcon over TLS.
go run example/tls/clone.go
