Redis

The Redis implementation allows to cache data in a redis server.

It uses node's ioredis package as a redis client. Please refer to the package documentation for all the available options.

Here is a full configuration example:

app/config/caching.js

export default {
  strategies: [
    {
      implementation: "Redis",
      supports: "*",
      config: {
        // See https://www.npmjs.com/package/redis#options-object-properties
        host:
          process.env.FRONT_COMMERCE_CLOUD_REDIS_HOST || // Front-Commerce Cloud variables
          process.env.FRONT_COMMERCE_REDIS_HOST || // default variables
          "127.0.0.1", // default value (localhost)
        port:
          process.env.FRONT_COMMERCE_CLOUD_REDIS_PORT ||
          process.env.FRONT_COMMERCE_REDIS_PORT ||
          6379,

          process.env.FRONT_COMMERCE_CLOUD_REDIS_DB ||
