Redis compatibility clients for Momento Cache and Momento Topics

Do you have existing apps that use a Redis cache, but now you're trading up to Momento’s services? With Redis compatibility clients, there's no need to refactor your code. Instead, compatibility clients are a drop-in replacement for existing Redis clients. Change your client library to the compatibility client, change the connection information, and the core of your code stays the same.

Getting Started

To switch your existing application to use Momento Cache, you only need to change the code where you construct your client object:

NodeRedis

// Import the Momento redis compatibility client.
import {createClient, momento} from 'momento-redis-client';
import {
    CacheClient,
    Configurations,
    CredentialProvider,
} from '@gomomento/sdk';

// Initialize Momento's client.
const redisClient = createClient(
    momento.CacheClient.create({
        configuration: momento.Configurations.Laptop.v1(),
        credentialProvider: momento.CredentialProvider.fromEnvironmentVariable({
            environmentVariableName: 'MOMENTO_API_KEY',
        }),
        defaultTtlSeconds: 60,
    }),
    'cache_name',
);

For more in-depth information, with example code, please see Momento Node.js Redis compatibility client on GitHub.

IORedis

// Import the Momento redis compatibility client.
import {MomentoRedisAdapter} from '@gomomento-poc/node-ioredis-client';
import {
    CacheClient,
    Configurations,
    CredentialProvider,
} from '@gomomento/sdk';

// Instantiate Momento Adapter Directly
const Redis = new MomentoRedisAdapter(
    await CacheClient.create({
        configuration: Configurations.Laptop.v1(),
        credentialProvider: CredentialProvider.fromEnvironmentVariable({
            environmentVariableName: 'MOMENTO_API_KEY',
        }),
        defaultTtlSeconds: config.defaultTTLSeconds,
    }),
    'cache_name',
);

StackExchange

using System;
using Momento.Auth;
using Momento.Config;
using Momento.Sdk;
using Momento.StackExchange.Redis;

// Create a Momento-backed Redis client
var db = MomentoRedisDatabase(
  await CacheClient.create(
    config: Configurations.Laptop.v1(),
    authProvider: new EnvMomentoTokenProvider("MOMENTO_API_KEY"),
    defaultTtl: TimeSpan.FromSeconds(60),
  }),
  "cache_name"
);

func initRedisClient() redis.Cmdable {
    credential, eErr := auth.NewEnvMomentoTokenProvider("MOMENTO_API_KEY")
    if eErr != nil {
        panic("Failed to initialize credentials through API key " + eErr.Error())
    }
    cacheClient, cErr := momento.NewCacheClient(config.LaptopLatest(), credential, 60*time.Second)
    if cErr != nil {
        panic("Failed to initialize Momento cache client " + cErr.Error())
    }
    // create cache; it resumes execution normally incase the cache already exists
    _, createErr := cacheClient.CreateCache(context.Background(),
        &momento.CreateCacheRequest{CacheName: "default_cache"})
    if createErr != nil {
        panic("Failed to create cache with cache name default cache \n" + createErr.Error())
    }
    redisClient := momentoredis.NewMomentoRedisClient(cacheClient, "default_cache")
    return redisClient
}

        momento.Configurations.Laptop.latest(),
        momento.CredentialProvider.from_environment_variable("MOMENTO_API_KEY"),
