You can configure an Azure Redis Cache for an Azure-hosted ASP.NET Core app, and use an Azure Redis Cache for local development. An app configures the cache implementation using a RedisCache instance (AddStackExchangeRedisCache). Create an Azure Cache for Redis. Copy the Primary connection string (StackExchange.
To start Redis client, open the terminal and type the command redis-cli. This will connect to your local server and now you can run any command. In the above example, we connect to Redis server running on the local machine and execute a command PING, that checks whether the server is running or not.
You can download the complete Source Code here. Download free Redis Client to view the data from Redis. Let's start with creating a project in Visual Studio 2015. After creating a project, we are going to add a NuGet package to access Redis from an ASP.NET application.
FYI, both the:
are open source ASP.NET web applications that only use the ServiceStack.Redis C# client.
Here is an example of how you would use an Inversion of control (IoC) container to register a Redis client connection pool and its accompanying IRepository with an IoC:
//Register any dependencies you want injected into your services container.Register<IRedisClientsManager>(c => new PooledRedisClientManager()); container.Register<IRepository>(c => new Repository(c.Resolve<IRedisClientsManager>())); Note: if you're just starting out with the client, I recommend you go through the C# Client Wiki, Especially the Designing a Simple Blog application with Redis tutorial*.
