skoep/redis repository overview

⁠Welcome to Debian / Redis

This container image allows for quick and easy use of the Redis in-memory database. The configuration options are simple, but can be replaced with your own configuration at any time.

⁠Versioning (Tag)

Versioning is highly dependent on the current Debian version and the Redis version available for it.

⁠Configuration

At each startup, the configuration is rewritten using any existing environment variables. Unset environment variables are assigned default values, which can be found in the table below. However, if the file /etc/redis/redis-custom.conf is available via volumes in the configuration directory, Redis will start with this configuration file, which will not be modified.

⁠Environment

⁠Volumes

⁠Example of a Compose file:

Starting the Redis server with the default values and using a maximum of 104857600 bytes of memory:

services:
  redis:
    image: docker.io/skoep/redis:latest
    container_name: redis
    hostname: redis
    domainname: example.com
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
    environment:
      - REDIS_MEMORY=100mb

Starting the Redis server with your own configuration file:

services:
  redis:
    image: docker.io/skoep/redis:latest
    container_name: redis
    hostname: redis
    domainname: example.com
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"
    volumes:
      - [your host configuration directory]/redis-custom.conf:/etc/redis/redis-custom.conf:ro
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro

⁠Example run for Podman

podman volume create redis
podman run \
    --detach \
    --name redis \
    --hostname redis \
    --tz "Europe/Berlin" \
    -p 6379:6379 \
    -v redis:/var/lib/redis:rw \
