NAME URI::redis - URI for Redis connection info SYNOPSIS use URI::redis; $url = URI->new('redis://redis.example.com?password=correcthorsebatterystaple'); $url = URI->new('redis://redis.example.com?db=5&password=correcthorsebatterystaple'); $url = URI->new('redis+unix:///tmp/redis.sock?db=5&password=correcthorsebatterystaple'); DESCRIPTION The "URI::redis" class supports "URI" objects belonging to the *redis* and *redis+unix* URI scheme. Such URLs are used to encode connection info ("redis": host, port, password, database, "redis+unix": socket path, password, database) to Redis servers. Supported URLs are in any of these formats: "redis://HOST[:PORT][?db=DATABASE[&password=PASSWORD]]" "redis://HOST[:PORT][?password=PASSWORD[&db=DATABASE]]" "redis://[:PASSWORD@]HOST[:PORT][/DATABASE]" "redis://[:PASSWORD@]HOST[:PORT][?db=DATABASE]" "redis://HOST[:PORT]/DATABASE[?password=PASSWORD]" A TCP connection, see . The port defaults to 6379 and the host defaults to "localhost". "redis+unix://[:PASSWORD@]SOCKET_PATH[?db=DATABASE]" "redis+unix://SOCKET_PATH[?db=DATABASE[&password=PASSWORD]]" "redis+unix://SOCKET_PATH[?password=PASSWORD[&db=DATABASE]]" A Unix domain socket connection. METHODS In addition to the methods inherited from URI, it provides the following methods: database Returns the database number from the path or the "db" query param. Returns 0 if no database is specified. database_from_path Returns the database number encoded in the path part of the URI. Only works if the path is in the format "^ / \d+". Returns undef if no database can be parsed from the path. database_from_query Returns the database number from the "db" query param. Returns undef if no "db" query param, or it has no value set. password Returns the password from the userinfo or the "password" query param. password_from_userinfo Returns the password part of the "userinfo" in URI. password_from_query Returns the password from the "password" query param. socket_path Returns the Unix domain socket path. Returns undef if the URI is not of the 'redis+unix' scheme. SEE ALSO URI COPYRIGHT Copyright 2016 Norbert Buchmueller.
