No Redis included?

[emergingdzns]

I see that there is configuration for Redis in the .env files but Redis doesn't appear to be part of the package. Is there a simple way to add this? I've added the predis/predis composer package but I don't think that it's installed.

We have REDIS in env file as example and you can see the same here - https://github.com/laravel/laravel/blob/9.x/.env.example. If you want to install REDIS maybe you can pay your attention to the example here - https://github.com/systemsdk/docker-symfony-api

@dimadeush That helped! In case anyone else wonders:

I resolved it by adding the docker/dev/redis files (Dockerfile and redis.conf) to my repo from the link provided above. Then I added the following lines to the .env files:

###> redis ###
REDIS_URL=redis://redis
###< redis ###

I then added the following to the yml files:

    redis:
      image: ${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}-redis
      container_name: ${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}-redis
      build:
        context: ./docker/redis
      restart: always
      ports:
        - "6379:6379"
      volumes:
        - ./var/redis:/data:delegated
      networks:
        - laravel

And finally in the laravel section of the yml files I added - redis to the depends_on section.
