= DESCRIPTION:
This cookbooks installs Redis 2 key-value datastore server. Redis can be installed from packages (where available) or source.
= REQUIREMENTS:
For compiling from source: build-essential
= ATTRIBUTES:
[:redis][:install_from] - _package_ to install from distro packages, any other value to install from source.
= USAGE:
This cookbook implements redis instances as a definition. If you plan to run only one instance, use the +redis::default_instance+ recipe which call a "redis_default" +redis_instance+.
To spawn instances of redis, use the +redis_instance+ definition, usage is pretty straight forward:
<tt>
redis_instance "datastore" do
port 8866
data_dir "/mnt/redis/datastore"
master master_node
end
</tt>
_port_, <em>data_dir</em> and _master_ are the only attributes directly configurable using the definition syntax. Other attributes can be configured using the normal attribute interface under the <tt>node[:redis][:instances][<em>instance_name</em>]</tt> scope. Missing attributes will be merged from <tt>node[:redis][:instances][:default]</tt>
The _master_ attribute will set up redis as a slave of a the same redis instance on another server. It will not set node[:redis][:instances][<em>instance_name</em>][:replication][:role]</tt> (which can be _slave_ or _master_), because redis can be both at the same time (e.g. chained masters).
