Redis Server

This is a simple redis server. It is part of the coding challenges https://codingchallenges.fyi/challenges/intro

Componenets

• Resp parser
• Redis server
  • the server deserializes incoming requests
  • it should handle the following requests:
    • GET: get a value
    • SET: set a value
    • EXISTS: check if a key exists
    • DEL: delete an entry
    • INCR: incmrenet a stored number by one
    • DECR: decrement a stored number by one
    • LPUSH: insert all values at the head of a list
    • RPUSH: insert all values at the tail of a list
    • SAVE: save the database to disk
    • PING: the server should respond with a pong message
• Redis cli
  • a cli to generate resp serialized requests

Design

• Server
  • server listens for incoming connections on port 6379
  • the server should handle requests concurrently
  • each request should require a suitable lock to modify the database's state
