Method: ActiveSupport::Cache::RedisCache#initialize

Defined in:
lib/redis_cache.rb

#initialize(*addresses) ⇒ RedisCache

Creates a new RedisCache object, with the given redis server addresses. Each address is either a host name, or a host-with-port string in the form of “redis://host_name:port”. For example:

ActiveSupport::Cache::RedisCache.new("localhost", "server-downstairs.localnetwork:8229")

If no addresses are specified, then MemCacheStore will connect to localhost port 11211 (the default memcached port).

Instead of addresses one can pass in a MemCache-like object. For example:

require 'redis' # gem install redis; 
ActiveSupport::Cache::RedisCache.new(Redis.connect(:url => "redis://localhost:6380/1"))
