Redis

The Railway Redis database service allows you to provision and connect to a Redis database with zero configuration.

Connect

There are two ways to connect to a Redis database:

• Add a Reference Variable to a service
• Run railway connect to start a redis-cli shell

The following variables can be referenced in your services:

• REDISHOST
• REDISUSER
• REDISPORT
• REDISPASSWORD
• REDIS_URL

Connect to your Redis container using your library of choice and supplying the appropriate environment variables.

The Redis database service uses the bitnami/redis:6.0 docker image.
