Connecting to Redis on cpsc

Remember that you’ll need to do two things to connect properly to Redis on cpsc: authenticate with the password I gave in class today, and select the correct instance.

From the command line:

$ redis-cli
127.0.0.1:6379> auth theClassPassword
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> select yourInstanceNumber
OK
127.0.0.1:6379[yourInstanceNumber]>

From Python:

import redis

r = redis.Redis(password="theClassPassword",
    db=yourInstanceNumber,
    decode_responses=True, charset='utf-8')
