redis3m

A C++ Redis client, born to bring my experience using Redis and C++ on a opensource library.

Main goals

1. Provide a simple and efficient wrapper of hiredis, with C++ facilities like memory management
2. A connection pooling system, with support for high availability using sentinel
3. A set of useful patterns ready to use and composable with other code. For example scheduler, orm, counters or message queueing

Dependencies

redis3m requires hiredis and boost libraries.

sudo apt-get install libmsgpack-dev libboost-thread-dev libboost-date-time-dev libboost-test-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-system-dev libhiredis-dev cmake build-essential

Then checkout the code and compile it
