Redix v1.3.0

View Source Changelog

v1-3-0

 v1.3.0

bug-fixes-and-improvements

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Improve EXITs that happen during calls to Redix functions.
  • Remove call to deprecated Logger.warn/2.
  • Support MFA for :password in the :sentinel option.
  • Add the Redix.password/0 type.
  • Add the Redix.sentinel_role/0 type.

v1-2-4

 v1.2.4

bug-fixes-and-improvements-1

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Remove Dialyzer PLTs from the Hex package. This has no functional impact whatsoever on the library. The PLTs were accidentally published together with the Hex package, which just results in an unnecessarily large Hex package.

v1-2-3

 v1.2.3

bug-fixes-and-improvements-2

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fix a bug with validating the :socket_opts option, which required a keyword list and thus wouldn't support valid options such as :inet6.

v1-2-2

 v1.2.2

bug-fixes-and-improvements-3

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Make parsing large bulk strings a lot faster. See the pull request for benchmarks. This causes no functional changes, just a speed improvement.

v1-2-1

 v1.2.1

bug-fixes-and-improvements-4

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Relaxed the version requirement for the :castore dependency to support ~> 1.0.

v1-2-0

 v1.2.0

new-features

 New features

  • Add :telemetry_metadata option to Redis calls. This can be used to provide custom metadata for Telemetry events.
  • Mark Redis sentinel support as not-experimental anymore.
  • Make Redix.URI part of the public API.

bug-fixes-and-improvements-5

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Handle Redis servers that disable the CLIENT command.
  • Bump Elixir requirement to 1.11+.
  • Raise an error if the :timeout option (supported by many of the function in the Redix module) is something other than a non-negative integer or :infinity. Before, timeout: nil was accidentally supported (but not documented) and would use a default timeout.

v1-1-5

 v1.1.5

bug-fixes-and-improvements-6

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fix formatting of Unix domain sockets when logging
  • Use Logger instead of IO.warn/2 when warning about ACLs, so that it can be silenced more easily.
  • Allow the :port option to be set explicitly to 0 when using Unix domain sockets
  • Support empty string as database when using Redis URIs due to changes to how URIs are handled in Elixir

v1-1-4

 v1.1.4

bug-fixes-and-improvements-7

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Support version 1.0 and over for the Telemetry dependency.

v1-1-3

 v1.1.3

bug-fixes-and-improvements-8

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • The .formatter.exs file included in this repo had some filesystem permission problems. This version fixes those.

v1-1-2

 v1.1.2

Version v1.1.1 was accidentally published with local code (from the maintainer's machine) in it instead of the code from the main Git branch. We're all humans! Version v1.1.1 has been retired.

v1-1-1

 v1.1.1

bug-fixes-and-improvements-9

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Version v1.1.0 started using ACLs and issuing AUTH <username> <password> when a username was provided (either via options or via URI). This broke previous documented behavior, where Redix used to ignore usernames. With this bug fix, Redix now falls back to AUTH <password> if AUTH <username> <password> fails because of the wrong number of arguments, which indicates a version of Redis earlier than version 6 (when ACLs were introduced).

v1-1-0

 v1.1.0

bug-fixes-and-improvements-10

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Improve handling of databases in URIs.
  • Add support for ACL, introduced in Redis 6.

v1-0-0

 v1.0.0

No bug fixes or improvements. Just enough years passed for this to become 1.0.0!

v0-11-2

 v0.11.2

bug-fixes-and-improvements-11

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fix a connection process crash that would very rarely happen when connecting to sentinel nodes with the wrong password or wrong database would fail to due a TCP/SSL connection issue.

v0-11-1

 v0.11.1

bug-fixes-and-improvements-12

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Allow nil as a valid value for the :password start option again. v0.11.0 broke this feature.

v0-11-0

 v0.11.0

breaking-changes

 Breaking changes

  • Use the new Telemetry event conventions for pipeline-related events. The new events are [:redix, :pipeline, :start] and [:redix, :pipeline, :stop]. They both have new measurements associated with them.
  • Remove the [:redix, :reconnection] Telemetry event in favor or [:redix, :connection], which is emitted anytime there's a successful connection to a Redis server.
  • Remove support for the deprecated :log start option (which was deprecated on v0.10.0).

bug-fixes-and-improvements-13

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Add the :connection_metadata name to all connection/disconnection-related Telemetry events.
  • Allow a {module, function, arguments} tuple as the value of the :password start option. This is useful to avoid password leaks in case of process crashes (and crash reports).
  • Bump minimum Elixir requirement to Elixir ~> 1.7.

v0-10-7

 v0.10.7

bug-fixes-and-improvements-14

 v0.10.5

bug-fixes-and-improvements-16

 Bug fixes and improvements

v0-10-4

 v0.10.4

bug-fixes-and-improvements-17

  • Fix a compile-time warning about the castore library.

v0-10-3

 v0.10.3

bug-fixes-and-improvements-18

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Use more secure SSL default options and optionally use castore if available as a certificate store.
  • Fix the default Telemetry handler for Redis Sentinel events.

v0-10-2

 v0.10.2

bug-fixes-and-improvements-19

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Allow a discarded username when using Redis URIs.
  • Fix the Redix.command/0 type which was [binary()] but which should have been [String.Chars.t()] since we call to_string/1 on each command.

v0-10-1

 v0.10.1

bug-fixes-and-improvements-20

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Improve password checking in Redis URIs.
  • Fix a bug when naming Redix connections with something other than a local name.

v0-10-0

 v0.10.0

bug-fixes-and-improvements-21

 Bug fixes and improvements

bug-fixes-and-improvements-24

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fix a bad return type from a gen_statem callback (#120).
  • Improve logging for Redis Sentinel.

v0-9-0

 v0.9.0

breaking-changes-1

 Breaking changes

  • Bring Redix.PubSub into Redix. Pub/Sub functionality lived in a separate library, redix_pubsub. Now, that functionality has been moved into Redix. This means that if you use redix_pubsub and upgrade your Redix version to 0.9, you will use the redix_pubsub version of Redix.PubSub. If you also upgrade your redix_pubsub version, redix_pubsub will warn and avoid compiling Redix.PubSub so you can use the latest version in Redix. In general, if you upgrade Redix to 0.9 or later just drop the redix_pubsub dependency and make sure your application works with the latest Redix.PubSub API (the message format changed slightly in recent versions).

  • Add support for Redis Sentinel.

  • Don't raise Redix.Error errors on non-bang variants of functions. This means that for example Redix.command/3 won't raise a Redix.Error exception in case of Redis errors (like wrong typing) and will return that error instead. In general, if you're pattern matching on {:error, _} to handle connection errors (for example, to retry after a while), now specifically match on {:error, %Redix.ConnectionError{}}. If you want to handle all possible errors the same way, keep matching on {:error, _}.

bug-fixes-and-improvements-25

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fix a bug that wouldn't let you use Redis URIs without host or port.
  • Don't ignore the :timeout option when connecting to Redis.

v0-8-2

 v0.8.2

bug-fixes-and-improvements-26

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fix an error when setting up SSL buffers (#106).

v0-8-1

 v0.8.1

bug-fixes-and-improvements-27

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Re-introduce start_link/2 with two lists of options, but deprecate it. It will be removed in the next Redix version.

v0-8-0

 v0.8.0

breaking-changes-2

 Breaking changes

  • Drop support for Elixir < 1.6.

  • Unify start_link options: there's no more separation between "Redis options" and "connection options". Now, all the options are passed in together. You can still pass a Redis URI as the first argument. This is a breaking change because now calling start_link/2 with two kewyord lists breaks. Note that start_link/2 with two keyword lists still works, but emits a warning and is deprecated.

bug-fixes-and-improvements-28

 Bug fixes and improvements

v0-7-1

 v0.7.1

  • Add support for Unix domain sockets by passing host: {:local, path}.

v0-7-0

 v0.7.0

breaking-changes-3

 Breaking changes

  • Drop support for Elixir < 1.3.

  • Remove Redix.format_error/1.

bug-fixes-and-improvements-29

 Bug fixes and improvements

v0-6-1

 v0.6.1

  • Fix some deprecation warnings around String.to_char_list/1.

v0-6-0

 v0.6.0

breaking-changes-4

 Breaking changes

  • Start using Redix.ConnectionError when returning errors instead of just an atom. This is a breaking change since now Redix.command/2 and the other functions return {:error, %Redix.ConnectionError{reason: reason}} instead of {:error, reason}. If you're matching on specific error reasons, make sure to update your code; if you're formatting errors through Redix.format_error/1, you can now use Exception.message/1 on the Redix.ConnectionError structs.

v0-5-2

 v0.5.2

  • Fix some TCP error handling during the connection setup phase.

v0-5-1

 v0.5.1

  • Fix Redix.stop/1 to be synchronous and not leave zombie processes.

v0-5-0

 v0.5.0

  • Drop support for Elixir < 1.2 and OTP 17 or earlier.

v0-4-0

 v0.4.0

  • Add @lexmag to the maintainers :tada:

  • Handle timeouts nicely by returning {:error, :timeout} instead of exiting (which is the default GenServer behaviour).

  • Remove support for specifying a maximum number of reconnection attempts when connecting to Redis (it was the :max_reconnection_attempts option).

  • Use exponential backoff when reconnecting.

  • Don't reconnect right away after the connection to Redis is lost, but wait for a cooldown time first.

  • Add support for :backoff_initial and :backoff_max options in Redix.start_link/2. These options are used for controlling the backoff behaviour of a Redix connection.

  • Add support for the :sync_connect option when connecting to Redis.

  • Add support for the :exit_on_disconnection option when connecting to Redis.

  • Add support for the :log option when connecting to Redis.

  • Raise ArgumentError exceptions instead of Redix.ConnectionError exceptions for stuff like empty commands.

  • Raise Redix.Error exceptions from Redix.command/3 instead of returning them wrapped in {:error, _}.

  • Expose Redix.format_error/1.

  • Add a "Reconnections" page in the documentation.

  • Extract the Pub/Sub functionality into a separate project.

v0-3-6

 v0.3.6

v0-3-5

 v0.3.5

  • Redix.Protocol now uses continuations under the hood for a faster parsing experience.

  • A bug in Redix.Protocol that caused massive memory leaks was fixed. This bug originated upstream in Elixir itself, and I submitted a fix for it here.

  • Some improvements were made to error reporting in the Redix logging.

v0-3-4

 v0.3.4

  • Fix a bug in the connection that was replacing the provided Redis password with :redacted upon successful connection, making it impossible to reconnect in case of failure (because of the original password now being unavailable).

v0-3-3

 v0.3.3

  • Fix basically the same bug that was almost fixed in v0.3.2, but this time for real!

v0-3-2

 v0.3.2

  • Fix a bug in the protocol that failed to parse integers in some cases.

v0-3-1

 v0.3.1

  • Restructure the Redix architecture to use two Elixir processes per connection instead of one (a process that packs commands and sends them on the socket and a process that listens from the socket and replies to waiting clients); this should speed up Redix when it comes to multiple clients concurrently issuing requests to Redis.

v0-3-0

 v0.3.0

breaking-changes-5

 Breaking changes

  • Change the behaviour for an empty list of command passed to Redix.pipeline/2 (Redix.pipeline(conn, [])), which now raises a Redix.ConnectionError complaining about the empty command. Before this release, the behaviour was just a connection timeout.

  • Change the behaviour of empty commands passed to Redix.command/2 or Redix.pipeline/2 (for example, Redix.command(conn, []) or Redix.pipeline(conn, [["PING"], []])); empty commands now return {:error, :empty_command}. The previous behaviour was just a connection timeout.

  • Remove Redix.start_link/1 in favour of just Redix.start_link/2: now Redis options are separated from the connection options. Redis options can be passed as a Redis URI as well.

bug-fixes-and-improvements-30

 Bug fixes and improvements

  • Change the error messages for most of the Redix.ConnectionError exceptions from simple atoms to more meaningful messages.

v0-2-1

 v0.2.1

v0-2-0

 v0.2.0

  • Rename Redix.NetworkError to Redix.ConnectionError (as it's more generic and more flexible).

  • Add support for PubSub. The following functions have been added to the Redix module:

    • Redix.subscribe/4
    • Redix.subscribe!/4
    • Redix.psubscribe/4
    • Redix.psubscribe!/4
    • Redix.unsubscribe/4
    • Redix.unsubscribe!/4
    • Redix.punsubscribe/4
    • Redix.punsubscribe!/4
    • Redix.pubsub?/2

v0-1-0

 v0.1.0
