Redis Universal client

TIP

To get an idea how to use go-redis client, see Getting started guide.

UniversalClient is a wrapper client which, based on the provided options, represents either a ClusterClient, a FailoverClient, or a single-node Client. This can be useful for testing cluster-specific applications locally or having different clients in different environments.

NewUniversalClient returns a new multi client. The type of the returned client depends on the following conditions:

  1. If the MasterName option is specified, a sentinel-backed FailoverClient is returned.
  2. if the number of Addrs is two or more, a ClusterClient is returned.
  3. Otherwise, a single-node Client is returned.

For example:

// rdb is *redis.Client.
rdb := NewUniversalClient(&redis.UniversalOptions{
    Addrs: []string{":6379"},
})

// rdb is *redis.ClusterClient.
rdb := NewUniversalClient(&redis.UniversalOptions{
    Addrs: []string{":6379", ":6380"},
})

// rdb is *redis.FailoverClient.
rdb := NewUniversalClient(&redis.UniversalOptions{
    Addrs: []string{":6379"},
    MasterName: "mymaster",
})
