How To Configure Redis + Redis Commander + Docker

I will get redis and redis commander up and running using docker.

Source files can be found here:

1. Create docker-compose.yml file:

Here I do several things:

create volume - redis-data. This is where all redis data will be stored, even if container is restarted, data will be there.
command: ["
```
redis-server
```
", "
```
--appendonly
```
", "
```
yes
```
"] - I start redis in persistent storage mode
```
REDIS_HOSTS=local:redis:6379
```
- tells redis commander how to connect to redis
```
HTTP_USER
```
and
```
HTTP_PASSWORD
```
- protect redis commander interface with login/password
"
```
depends_on
```
" - prevents container to start before other container, on which it depends

docker-compose up -d

If I now try

localhost:8081

- I will see Redis Commander interface.

I can login using root/qwerty credentials.

volumes:
    - /var/www/docker-study.loc/recipe-04/docker/redis.conf:/usr/local/etc/redis/redis.conf

and change:

command: ["redis-server", "--appendonly", "yes", "/usr/local/etc/redis/redis.conf"]
