Redis Cache By Xon 2.17.2

[Xon]

Working with the latest Redis 6.2.x?

It will work just fine.

Automatic AOF rewritings happen every almost an hour. Is that normal behavior?

redis.conf settings:

#   save ""

# save 900 1
# save 300 10
# save 60 10000

appendonly yes
appendfsync everysec

aof-rewrite-incremental-fsync yes

This is more a generic redis question, I'ld need to google it myself.

After this update, it shows the Redis stats twice. Is this expected to happen?

It was always the same. One is for page.

You can't update redis without connecting to the server AFAIK. How come?

I just added the repository debian

The add-on now extends all cache handlers which use the stock Redis connector, so it is discovering the page cache handler and shimming it too.

The problem is the stats display doesn't realize these are identical redis backends.

I am a little confused about something. I am using igbinary as the serializer in my config file. Does using this option require that igbinary be installed(php-pecl-igbinary)?

 

[Xon]

Yes it does. It will just silently switch to php serialization if it isn't installed rather than blow up your site.

Check the admincp dashboard for the redis section to see what is actually being used

I guess this is where I get confused. This is that section:



So, what you are saying is that it's likely failing on the igbinary serialization and silently using php even though this shows igbinary, correct?

 

[Xon]

phpredis extension will pull in the igbinary serializer as a dependency so it is likely just working correctly.

Thanks.

So, just to confirm, igbinary not listed as a serializer here is not an issue? I know you addressed this but I assumed this was confirmation it wasn't installed. I also do not see it in my phpinfo().

php --ri redis
redis

Redis Support => enabled
Redis Version => 5.3.4
Redis Sentinel Version => 0.1
Available serializers => php, json

Also, igbinary.so is installed but when I add it to php config, it completely breaks my site. I suppose I will just leave it alone.

 

[Cl0udzz]

can someone give me a quick explain about the function of this addon ?
What are the most common cases where this addon is needet?

I would highly appreciate some little explains / example cases

 

[Xon]

Have a look at the Feature overview part. beyond the high-availability support via redis sentinel it adds some additional caching that helps for high traffic sites

@Cl0udzz
Its for me a must have addon also at non "big boards". Every forum will have a benefit from faster loading sites with better ranking and Redis combined with this addon makes Xenforo faster.

@Xon instead of having to go to redis-cli it would be nice via your add-on either to run redis-cli commands or have an option to flush a database or run flushall. I may want to reset the database (or all databases) and start clean. It may be easier to do so via your add-on in the options page. Just an idea for extending your add-on to make redis management easier.

Also another idea, why not put all of those options we set in config.php into the options page? Outline either all or the preferred redis cache params and allow us to set them without having to do so directly in the config.php?
