Async Redis Models

A better; smarter and faster way to interact with Redis. While RediJson allows access to json models, direct hash calls remain the best way to maximize performance on Redis.

Easily perform complex queries using linq and partially load/update your models.

Setup

Initialize Redis Connection

Start by initializing the Redis connection with your Redis server details:

RedisSingleton.Initialize("your-redis-host", port, "your-password");

Basic Usage

Create a New Entity

var character = await RedisRepository.CreateAsync<Character>();

Load an Entity from Redis

character = await RedisRepository.LoadAsync<Character>(character.Id);

Update and Persist Data

character.Username = "myUsername"; await character.PushAsync(s => s.Username);

Retrieve Updated Data

await character.PullAsync(s => s.Username); Console.WriteLine(character.Username); // Output the updated Username

Query Data

var query = new RedisQuery<Character>(); var results = await query.Where(s => s.Username == "myUsername").SelectAsync();

Model Definition

Character Model

public class Character : IAsyncModel { [Indexed(IndexType.Tag)] public string Username { get; set; } public string Id { get; set; } public DateTime CreatedAt { get; set; } public string IndexName() { return "character"; } }

• Indexed attribute can be used to index specific fields.

• Implements IAsyncModel for Redis interaction.

Key Operations

Push Data to Redis

await character.PushAsync(s => s.Username);

Pull Data from Redis

await character.PullAsync(s => s.Username);

Delete an Entity

await character.DeleteAsync();

Increment a Value

await character.IncrementAsync(s => s.myNumber);

Batch Operations

Create Multiple Entities

var characters = await RedisRepository.CreateManyAsync<Character>(100);

Load Multiple Entities

var characters = await RedisRepository.LoadManyAsync<Character>(new[] { "id1", "id2" });

Error Handling

Exceptions are thrown if Redis interactions fail (e.g., if an entity with the same ID already exists).

Extensions

• PushAsync : Save model properties to Redis.

• PullAsync : Retrieve model properties from Redis.

• IncrementAsync : Increment numeric properties atomically.

Notes

• RedisSingleton handles the Redis connection and is used for all database operations.

• Models must implement IAsyncModel for seamless integration with Redis.
