⚠️ This is the archived documentation for k6 v0.47. Go to the latest version.

Client is a Redis client to interact with a Redis server or cluster. It exposes a promise-based API, which users can interact with in an asynchronous manner.

Though the API intends to be thorough and extensive, it does not expose the whole Redis API. Instead, the intent is to expose Redis for use cases most appropriate to k6.

Note that the Client is configured through the Options object.

Example

import { check } from 'k6';
import http from 'k6/http';
import redis from 'k6/experimental/redis';
import exec from 'k6/execution';
import { textSummary } from 'https://jslib.k6.io/k6-summary/0.0.2/index.js';
export const options = {
scenarios: {
redisPerformance: {
executor: 'shared-iterations',
vus: 10,
iterations: 200,
exec: 'measureRedisPerformance',
},
usingRedisData: {
executor: 'shared-iterations',
vus: 10,
iterations: 200,
exec: 'measureUsingRedisData',
},
},
};
// Get the redis instance(s) address and password from the environment
const redis_addrs = __ENV.REDIS_ADDRS || '';
const redis_password = __ENV.REDIS_PASSWORD || '';
// Instantiate a new redis client
const redisClient = new redis.Client({
addrs: redis_addrs.split(',') || new Array('localhost:6379'), // in the form of 'host:port', separated by commas
password: redis_password,
});
// Prepare an array of crocodile ids for later use
// in the context of the measureUsingRedisData function.
const crocodileIDs = new Array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9);
export async function measureRedisPerformance() {
// VUs are executed in a parallel fashion,
// thus, to ensure that parallel VUs are not
// modifying the same key at the same time,
// we use keys indexed by the VU id.
const key = `foo-${exec.vu.idInTest}`;
await redisClient.set(key, 1);
await redisClient.incrBy(key, 10);
const value = await redisClient.get(key);
if (value !== '11') {
throw new Error('foo should have been incremented to 11');
}
await redisClient.del(key);
if (await redisClient.exists(key) !== 0) {
throw new Error('foo should have been deleted');
}
}
export async function setup() {
await redisClient.sadd('crocodile_ids', ...crocodileIDs);
}
export async function measureUsingRedisData() {
// Pick a random crocodile id from the dedicated redis set,
// we have filled in setup().
const randomID = await redisClient.srandmember('crocodile_ids');
const url = `https://test-api.k6.io/public/crocodiles/${randomID}`;
const res = await http.asyncRequest("GET", url);
check(res, {'status is 200': (r) => r.status === 200});
await redisClient.hincrby('k6_crocodile_fetched', url, 1);
}
export async function teardown() {
await redisClient.del('crocodile_ids');
}
export function handleSummary(data) {
redisClient
.hgetall('k6_crocodile_fetched')
.then((fetched) => Object.assign(data, { k6_crocodile_fetched: fetched }))
.then((data) => redisClient.set(`k6_report_${Date.now()}`, JSON.stringify(data)))
.then(() => redisClient.del('k6_crocodile_fetched'));
return {
stdout: textSummary(data, { indent: ' ', enableColors: true }),
};
}
