disposable-redis

Will conjure a redis server for you to use and discard.

Intended to be used by automated tests that depend on a redis server.

When first called, will download and compile redis. Subsequent calls will use the existing redis.

Quick Examples

// gimme a server
disposableRedis.server(function(err, server) {
  console.log("server running on port", server.port);
  server.close();
});
// I don't really care about the server, just gimme a node-redis client over it
disposableRedis.client(function(err, result) {
  result.client.set("key", "value");
  result.close();
});
## Download

For Node.js, use npm:

npm install disposable-redis
