Description-en: Redis driver for Ruby using Hiredis
ruby-hiredis provides a Ruby extension that wraps Hiredis. Both the synchronous
connection API and a separate protocol reader are supported. It is primarily
intended to speed up parsing multi bulk replies.
.
Hiredis is a minimalistic C client library for the Redis database, a
persistent key-value database with support for atomically manipulating and
querying data structures such as lists and sets.
