This package is a plugin for the Caddy webserver. Its purpose is to store and retrieve user data in and from Redis.
If you HTTP POST a valid JSON payload to /redis/<key>, it will put it into a Redis database under the specified key.
Similarly, if you do a HTTP GET on /redis/<key>, it will return the previously stored data. If you specify a Accept-Encoding header of application/xml, it will return the data as XML, otherwise as JSON.
WARNING: This plugin is for testing purposes only. Do not use in production! Seriously, this plugin will write anything given by anyone to the specified Redis database. You'll want to implement some kind of authentication at the very least.
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"key":"val"}' http://localhost:2015/redis/test
This will SET test => "{"key":"val"}" in Redis (actually, the key will be caddy:test internally to keep things somewhat organized).
curl -H "Accept-Encoding: application/json" http://localhost:2015/redis/test
This will GET the previously stored data for the key test as JSON.
curl -H "Accept-Encoding: application/xml" http://localhost:2015/redis/test
This will GET the previously stored data for the key test as XML.
redis {
server localhost:6379 # NOTE: If not specified, ":6379" is used as the Redis server (default).
password foobar # NOTE: If not specified, Redis is used without authentication (default).
