cinovo-redis-pingpong

cinovo-redis-pingpong sends PING commands to Redis using redis to check if the connection is alive by receiving a PONG within a certain time span.

Getting started

At first you must install and require the module.

npm install cinovo-redis-pingpong

Next you must require the module

var pingpong = require("cinovo-redis-pingpong");

Then you can watch a redis client

var client = require("redis").createClient(6379, "localhost");
...
pingpong.watch(client, {"interval": 5000, "maxTimespan": 2000, "maxMissesBeforeError": 5});
pingpong.on("error", function(err) {
    console.log("redis is not available");
});
...
pingpong.stop();

Done

Now your redis client is watched.
