Redis download for windows

The ServiceStack/redis-windows project contains the binary releases of MS Open Tech redis port of windows as well as a vagrant configuration for redis letting you run the native version of Redis in a Virtual Box VM.

Whilst it’s recommended to use Redis on Linux in production, it is often useful for developers on Windows platforms to have their own local version of redis running to develop with.

The 3 most popular ways of running redis on windows is to use the binary releases of Microsoft’s native port of redis, but as this is an unofficial port it always lags behind the latest official development of redis on Linux/OSX.

Thanks to Vagrant you can choose to run the latest linux version inside a Virtual Box Linux VM where you’ll be able to run the official native version of redis.

Or from Windows 10 you can install Bash on Ubuntu on Windows which will let you run the official version of Redis on Ubuntu on Windows This is our preferred approach as it lets you run native Ubuntu binaries on Windows more efficiently than a VM of Linux.

Option 1) Install Redis on Ubuntu on Windows​

Install Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)​

From Command Line:

From GUI:

1. From Start, search for Turn Windows features on or off (type turn)
2. Select Windows Subsystem for Linux

Once installed you can run bash on Ubuntu by typing bash from a Windows Command Prompt, then you can install recent stable versions of Redis from the official packages.redis.io APT repository with:

curl -fsSL https://packages.redis.io/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/redis-archive-keyring.gpg

echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/redis-archive-keyring.gpg] https://packages.redis.io/deb $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/redis.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install redis

After install, start the Redis server with:

Then test that it’s running with:

$ redis-cli
$ 127.0.0.1:6379> SET foo bar
OK
$ 127.0.0.1:6379> GET foo
"bar"

Install latest from source​

To install the latest version of Redis we first need to install some prerequisites:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install make
$ sudo apt-get install gcc

Then follow the official installation guide
to download, build and install the latest stable version. NOTE: Installing
the binaries using make install will not work. You need to copy them manually
to /usr/bin (just like described in the guide, except that they use
/usr/local/bin — which is the problem).

You’ll then be able to launch redis with:

Which will run redis in the background freeing your shell so you can play with it using the redis client:

$ redis-cli
$ 127.0.0.1:6379> SET foo bar
OK
$ 127.0.0.1:6379> GET foo
"bar"

Which you can connect to from within bash or from your Windows desktop using the redis-cli native Windows binary from MSOpenTech.

Option 2) Running the latest version of Redis with Vagrant​

1. Install Vagrant on Windows

2. Download the vagrant-redis.zip vagrant configuration

1. Extract vagrant-redis.zip in any folder, e.g. in c:\vagrant-redis

2. Launch the Virtual Box VM with vagrant up

$ cd c:\vagrant-redis
$ vagrant up

This will launch a new Ubuntu VM instance inside Virtual Box that will automatically install and start the latest stable version of redis.

Option 3) Running Microsoft’s native port of Redis​

These 64-bit binary releases are created by building the Microsoft’s native port of redis which have also been published on NuGet, but as it’s more convenient we provide a zip of the 64-bit binaries here.

MS Open Announcements​

• MSOpenTech Redis on Windows 3.0 Release Notes
• MSOpenTech Redis on Windows 2.8 Release Notes
• MSOpenTech’s Redis on Windows
• Updates Released for Redis on Windows (2.8.4)

Current Version: 3.0.503 (June 28, 2016)​

1. Download the redis-latest.zip native 64bit Windows port of redis

1. Extract redis64-latest.zip in any folder, e.g. in c:\redis

2. Run the redis-server.exe using the local configuration

$ cd c:\redis
$ redis-server.exe redis.windows.conf

1. Run redis-cli.exe to connect to your redis instance

$ cd c:\redis
$ redis-cli.exe

1. Start playing with redis

redis 127.0.0.1:6379> SET foo bar
OK
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> KEYS *
1) "foo"
redis 127.0.0.1:6379> GET foo
"bar"
redis 127.0.0.1:6379>

The MSOpenTech of Redis adds some useful extensions for better integration with Windows:

Running Redis as a Service​

If you installed Redis using the MSI package, then Redis was already installed as a Windows service. Nothing further to do.
If you would like to change its settings, you can update the redis.windows-service.conf file and then restart the Redis
service (Run -> services.msc -> Redis -> Restart).

During installation of the MSI you can either use the installer’s user interface to update the port that Redis listens to and the firewall exception or run it silently without a UI. The following examples show how to install from the command line:

default install (port 6379 and firewall exception ON):

set port and turn OFF firewall exception:

set port and turn ON firewall exception:

install with no user interface:

If you did not install Redis using the MSI package, then you still run Redis as a Windows service by following these instructions:

In order to better integrate with the Windows Services model, new command line arguments have been introduced to Redis.
These service arguments require an elevated user context in order to connect to the service control manager.
If these commands are invoked from a non-elevated context, Redis will attempt to create an elevated context in which to execute these commands.
This will cause a User Account Control dialog to be displayed by Windows and may require Administrative user credentials in order to proceed.

Installing the Service​

--service-install

This must be the first argument on the redis-server command line. Arguments after this are passed in the order they occur to Redis when the service is launched.
The service will be configured as Autostart and will be launched as «NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService». Upon successful installation, a success message will be displayed and Redis will exit.

This command does not start the service.

For instance:

Uninstalling the Service​

--service-uninstall

This will remove the Redis service configuration information from the registry. Upon successful uninstallation, a success message will be displayed and Redis will exit.
This does command not to stop the service.

For instance:

Starting the Service​

--service-start

This will start the Redis service. Upon successful startup, a success message will be displayed and Redis service will be started.

For instance:

Stopping the Service​

--service-stop

This will stop the Redis service. Upon successful termination, a success message will be displayed and Redis will exit.

For instance:

Naming the Service​

--service-name name

This optional argument may be used with any of the preceding commands to set the name of the installed service. This argument should follow the service-install, service-start, service-stop or service-uninstall commands, and precede any arguments to be passed to Redis via the service-install command.
The following would install and start three separate instances of Redis as a service:

$ redis-server --service-install –service-name redisService1 –port 10001
$ redis-server --service-start –service-name redisService1
$ redis-server --service-install –service-name redisService2 –port 10002
$ redis-server --service-start –service-name redisService2
$ redis-server --service-install –service-name redisService3 –port 10003
$ redis-server --service-start –service-name redisService3

Configure Redis Sentinel Servers​

Картинка с сайта: docs.servicestack.net

See the
redis config project for a quick way to setup up
the minimal
highly available Redis Sentinel configuration
including start/stop scripts for instantly running multiple redis instances on a single (or multiple)
Windows, OSX or Linux servers.

Step 1: Download Redis for Windows

1. Visit the Redis for Windows GitHub repository: https://github.com/microsoftarchive/redis
2. Click on the «releases» tab and choose the latest release (or the version you wish to install).
3. Download the zip file containing the binaries (for example, Redis-x64-<version>.zip).

Step 2: Extract the Redis binaries

1. Once the download is complete, extract the contents of the zip file to a folder of your choice. For example, you can extract it to C:\Redis.

Step 3: Install Redis as a Windows service

1. Open a command prompt (cmd) with administrative privileges.
2. Navigate to the Redis folder you extracted earlier, for example: cd C:\Redis.
3. To install Redis as a service, run the following command: redis-server --service-install redis.windows-service.conf. This will use the configuration file provided with the binaries.
4. You should receive a message indicating that Redis has been successfully installed as a service.

Step 4: Start Redis service

1. To start the Redis service, run the following command: redis-server --service-start.
2. You should receive a message indicating that the Redis service has been started.

Step 5: Verify Redis installation

1. In the command prompt, run the Redis CLI by typing redis-cli and pressing Enter.
2. To check if Redis is running, type ping and press Enter. If Redis is running, it will return «PONG».
3. You can also run other Redis commands to interact with the server, such as SET key value and GET key.

Managing Redis on Windows

1. To stop the Redis service, run the following command: redis-server --service-stop.
2. To uninstall the Redis service, run the following command: redis-server --service-uninstall.
3. To configure Redis, edit the redis.windows-service.conf file in the Redis folder. You can modify settings like memory limits, logging, and security options. After making changes, restart the Redis service to apply the new configuration.

For more information and advanced configuration options, consult the official Redis documentation: https://redis.io/documentation

Просто и быстро установить Redis в ОС Windows позволяет Chocolatey. Это менеджер пакетов в среде Windows, аналогичный apt-get в мире Linux. С его помощью можно устанавливать множество программ и обновлять их, не скачивая каждый раз дистрибутив с сайта.

Действуем по инструкции с официального сайта проекта Chocolatey.

• Windows 7+ / Windows Server 2003+;
• PowerShell v2+. Для установки с сайта требуется как минимум v3 (из-за требований TLS 1.2);
• .NET Framework 4+. Программа попытается установить .NET 4.0, если он не установлен. Минимальная необходимая версия для установки с этого веб-сайта — 4.5 (из-за требований TLS 1.2).

Запустите консоль запуска команд, нажав WIN + R, и введите команду cmd. Если вверху выведена версия Windows, как на скриншоте, этого достаточно.

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

Если нет, введите команду systeminfo. В начале вывода должна появиться версия Windows.

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

Если у вас установлена версия 7 или выше — переходим к следующему шагу.

Для этого открываем PowerShell, вводим команду $PSVersionTable.PSVersion и получаем ответ:

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

На нашем скриншоте версия PowerShell 5.1. Если у вас версия ниже 3, необходимо установить PowerShell версии 3 (или выше). Инструкция есть по этой ссылке.

Запускаем редактор реестра: нажимаем WIN + R и выполняем команду regedit.

Переходим в раздел

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP и смотрим, какие папки там присутствуют:

Если нет такой ветки или отсутствует версия 4.0 и выше, то необходимо её установить. Подробная инструкция находится по этой ссылке.

После всех подготовительных действий устанавливаем Chocolatey. Это делается одной командой PowerShell.

Важно! До начала установки необходимо проверить, есть ли на это права. Если прав недостаточно, их нужно добавить.

В PowerShell необходимо убедиться, что Get-ExecutionPolicy не является Restricted. Рекомендуется использовать Bypass для снятия ограничений или AllSigned для более безопасного использования.

Выполните команду Get-ExecutionPolicy. Если она вернёт Restricted, запустите Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned (рекомендуется) или Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process.

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

После этого введите команду установки:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

Если всё прошло успешно, получим:

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

В этом случае можно переходить к установке пакетов приложений. В нашем случае это будет Redis.

Находим в поиске Chocolatey нужный пакет Redis, например, https://chocolatey.org/packages/redis-64/3.0.503 — и копируем (клавиши Ctrl-C) указанную на сайте ссылку для установки:

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

Примечание: после версии 3.0.503 текущий проект был переименован и больше не разрабатывался, однако для знакомства с Redis и её изучения подходит.

Затем вводим скопированную команду из буфера обмена (Ctrl-V) в консоль PowerShell:

choco install redis-64 --version 3.0.503

Если установка прошла нормально, получаем:

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

Теперь пробуем использовать Redis. Для этого запускаем сервер, выполнив команду:

Если у вас включён брандмауэр, разрешите в нём доступ к Redis. В консоли PowerShell должно появиться сообщение о том, что сервер Redis работает и принимает соединения.

Картинка с сайта: skillbox.ru

После этого откройте ещё одно окно Powershell, не закрывая окно с запущенным сервером. В новом выполните команду:

Теперь вы можете использовать redis в командной строке для работы с сервером Redis:

Для использования в коде программы и для связи с сервером вам может понадобиться номер порта для подключения. Его можно найти в окне запуска Redis:
