Redis with DBine
How to connect DBine to Redis and what you can do once it's connected. This page is written from what the Redis driver says about itself, so it matches the version of DBine you download.
Connect
- In DBine, open New connection.
- Pick Redis in the list of engines.
- Fill in the fields below, press Test connection and then Save.
Default port: 6379.
General
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Server required | Example: localhost |
| Port | Example: 6379 |
| Database | Logical database index (0–15 in a standard installation). Example: 0 |
| User | Only with ACL (Redis 6 or later); empty = default. |
| Password | Kept in the system keychain, never in DBine's files. |
| Read-only | On or off. |
SSH tunnel. The connection can go through an SSH server, even through a chain of bastions, with a password, a private key or the SSH agent. The server's fingerprint is checked against known_hosts or confirmed the first time.
SSL/TLS
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Encrypt the connection (TLS) | On or off. |
| Trust the server certificate | On or off. |
What the explorer shows
Under the connection: Databases. Inside each one:
- Keys
Query editor
The editor uses Redis's commands, with completion for the connection's objects. Statements and commands run against the database selected in the tab.
Ready-made templates for new objects:
- New hash with expiration
- New list (queue)
- New set
- New sorted set (ranking)
- New stream with consumer group
- New counter
