# About
|
|
|
|
A very simple prototype providing an HTTP interface to Redis. It uses [hiredis](https://github.com/antirez/hiredis) and [jansson](https://github.com/akheron/jansson).
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
make clean all
|
|
./turnip &
|
|
curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/SET/hello/world
|
|
→ {"SET":[true,"OK"]}
|
|
curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/GET/hello
|
|
→ {"GET":"world"}
|
|
|
|
curl -d "GET/hello" http://127.0.0.1:7379/
|
|
→ {"GET":"world"}
|
|
|
|
</pre>

# Features
|
|
* GET and POST are supported.
|
|
* JSON output by default, optional JSONP parameter.
|
|
* Raw Redis 2.0 protocol output with `?format=raw`
|
|
* HTTP 1.1 pipelining (45 kqps on a desktop Linux machine.)
|
|
* Connects to Redis using a TCP or UNIX socket.
|
|
|
|
# Ideas, TODO...
|
|
* Add meta-data info per key (MIME type in a second key, for instance).
|
|
* Support PUT, DELETE, HEAD?
|
|
* Support pub/sub.
|
|
* Disable MULTI/EXEC/DISCARD/WATCH.
|
|
* Add logging.
|
|
* Enrich config file:
|
|
* Provide timeout (this needs to be added to hiredis first.)
|
|
* Restrict commands by IP range
|
|
* Send your ideas using the github tracker or on twitter [@yowgi](http://twitter.com/yowgi).
|
|
|
|
# HTTP error codes
|
|
* Unknown HTTP verb: 405 Method Not Allowed
|
|
* Redis is unreachable: 503 Service Unavailable
|
|
* Could also be used:
|
|
* Timeout on the redis side: 503 Service Unavailable
|
|
* Missing key: 404 Not Found
|
|
|
|
# Command format
|
|
The URI `/COMMAND/arg0/arg1/.../argN` executes the command on Redis and returns the response to the client. GET and POST are supported:
|
|
|
|
* `GET /COMMAND/arg0/.../argN`
|
|
* `POST /` with `COMMAND/arg0/.../argN` in the HTTP body.
|
|
|
|
# JSON output
|
|
JSON is the default output format. Each command returns a JSON object with the command as a key and the result as a value.
|
|
|
|
**Examples:**
|
|
<pre>
|
|
// string
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/GET/y
|
|
{"GET":"41"}
|
|
|
|
// number
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/INCR/y
|
|
{"INCR":42}
|
|
|
|
// list
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/LRANGE/x/0/1
|
|
{"LRANGE":["abc","def"]}
|
|
|
|
// status
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/TYPE/y
|
|
{"TYPE":[true,"string"]}
|
|
|
|
// error, which is basically a status
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/MAKE-ME-COFFEE
|
|
{"MAKE-ME-COFFEE":[false,"ERR unknown command 'MAKE-ME-COFFEE'"]}
|
|
|
|
// JSONP callback:
|
|
$ curl "http://127.0.0.1:7379/TYPE/y?jsonp=myCustomFunction"
|
|
myCustomFunction({"TYPE":[true,"string"]})
|
|
|
|
</pre>

# RAW output
|
|
This is the raw output of Redis; enable it with `?format=raw`.
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
// string
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/GET/z?format=raw
|
|
hello
|
|
|
|
// number
|
|
curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/INCR/a?format=raw
|
|
:2
|
|
|
|
// list
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/LRANGE/x/0/-1?format=raw
|
|
*2
|
|

|
|

|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/TYPE/y?format=raw
|
|
+zset

// error, which is basically a status
|
|
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:7379/MAKE-ME-COFFEE?format=raw
