#Redis Inside

Run integration tests against Redis without having to start/install an instance.

Redis inside works by extracting the Redis executable to a temporary location and executing it. Internally it uses Redis for windows ported by MS Open Tech.

How to

Launch a Redis instance from just by creating a new instance of Redis. After that the node name and port can be acceessed from the node-property:

using (var redis = new Redis())
{
    // connect to redis.Endpoint here
}

Each instance will run on a random port so you can even run multiple instances:

using (var redis1 = new Redis())
using (var redis2 = new Redis())
{
    // connect to two nodes here
}

Install

Simply add the Nuget package:

PM> Install-Package redis-inside

Requirements

You'll need .NET Framework 4.5.1 or dotnet core 2.0 or later on 64 bit Windows to use the precompiled binaries.
