Upstash Redis
A guide to integrate Upstash resources in genezio projects
Upstash is a cutting-edge platform for modern developers seeking seamless data management in serverless and cloud-native applications. Offering Redis-compatible, in-memory database services, Upstash simplifies data storage and access, making it a natural fit for serverless functions, web apps, and cloud-native architectures.
Navigate to the project integration page in the dashboard and select to
Install Upstash Redis to your project:
Connect with an Upstash account using the preferred login method:
Create a Redis database or select an already existing database:
Hit
Save to save the database credentials as backend environment variables
Use the environment variables in your genezio project to connect to the Redis database.
index.ts
import { Redis } from '@upstash/redis'
export class UpstashRedisExample {
connect() {
// Connect to Redis
const redis = new Redis({
url: process.env.UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL
token: process.env.UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN
})
// Save a data in Redis
const data = await redis.set('foo', 'bar');
}
}
Note: Install
@upstash/redis using npm, if you don't have this dependency already in your project:npm install @upstash/redis
To test your project locally, you have to create a file named
.env and store the Upstash Redis credentials there. This file should be in the root directory of your backend.Use the genezio dashboard under
Integrations/Upstash Redis card to copy the Redis credentials in your .env file..env
UPSTASH_REDIS_URL=redis://<username>:<password>@<hostname>:<port>
UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL=<url>
UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN=<password>
Now you can use
genezio local to start a server locally that will also load up the necessary environment variables to connect to the Redis database.Last modified 1mo ago
