docker-images/redis

This images is aim to help you create a 6 - node Redis cluster in minutes

Build the Docker image by yourself

cd redis
docker build -t cluster-redis:latest .

Create a Redis cluster on Kubernetes

1. Create a Redis Statefulset and a Service

kubectl create -f redis/redis.yml

Now Take a look at the Redis pods

kubectl get pods -o wide | grep redis

redis-0                            1/1       Running   0          9m        172.17.0.7    minikube
redis-1                            1/1       Running   0          9m        172.17.0.9    minikube
redis-2                            1/1       Running   0          9m        172.17.0.10   minikube
redis-3                            1/1       Running   0          9m        172.17.0.11   minikube
redis-4                            1/1       Running   0          9m        172.17.0.12   minikube
redis-5                            1/1       Running   0          9m        172.17.0.15   minikube

2. Access a Redis pod, pick anyone you like.

kubectl exec -it redis-0 bash

3. Go to Redis source code folder, and create the Redis cluster (You should type all the IPs of six pods)

cd /usr/src/redis/src/
./redis-trib.rb create --replicas 1 172.17.0.11:6379 172.17.0.12:6379 172.17.0.13:6379 \
172.17.0.14:6379 172.17.0.15:6379 172.17.0.16:6379

4. Type "yes" when you saw this

Can I set the above configuration? (type 'yes' to accept): yes

When you see something like the following, then all done!

[OK] All nodes agree about slots configuration.
>>> Check for open slots...
>>> Check slots coverage...
[OK] All 16384 slots covered.

You can verify the cluster by

redis-cli -c

I followed the Redis official cluster tutorial to build this custom redis image(upon redis-3.2.9) and set up the cluster. Please check at https://redis.io/topics/cluster-tutorial
