ActiveModel based object persistance library for Redis

ActiveRedis

ActiveModel based object persisting library for Redis key-value database.

Features

• ActiveModel compatibility
• Race condition free operations

Missing features

A lot. ActiveRedis is currently designed to handle concurrency issues. Use OHM or remodel if you need advanced features and can accept some potential concurrency issues.

• Indexes
• Relations
• Other cool stuff

How to start

1. Clone the repository
2. Fetch submodules
3. Install Rails 3 gem (latest preview release)
4. Run rake redis:start
5. Run rake console

Then try out something like

>> c = Cat.new :age=>12, :name => "long"
=> #<Cat:0x1015021f0 @attributes={"name"=>"long", "age"=>"12"}>
>> c.save
=> true
>> Cat.count
=> 1
>> Cat.find(1)
=> #<Cat:0x10121ff78 @attributes={"name"=>"long", "age"=>"12"}, @id=1>
