FarNet library

To install as the FarNet library FarNet.Redis, follow these steps.
The NuGet package is installed to %FARHOME%\FarNet\Lib\FarNet.Redis.

Included assets:

• StackExchange.Redis.dll, FarNet.Redis.dll

  General purpose Redis client and helper assemblies.
  They are designed for using in C#, F#, PowerShell.

• FarNet.Redis.psd1, PS.FarNet.Redis.dll

  The PowerShell module files.

• FarNet.Redis.ini

  The configuration for F# scripts (FarNet.FSharpFar).

The PowerShell module may be imported as:

Import-Module $env:FARHOME\FarNet\Lib\FarNet.Redis

Consider exposing this module, so that you can:

Import-Module FarNet.Redis

Expose the module as a symbolic link or junction

(1) Choose one of the module directories, see $env:PSModulePath.

(2) Change to the selected directory and create the symbolic link

New-Item -Path FarNet.Redis -ItemType SymbolicLink -Value $env:FARHOME\FarNet\Lib\FarNet.Redis

(3) Alternatively, you may create the similar folder junction point in Far Manager using AltF6.

Then you may update the FarNet package with new versions. The symbolic link or junction do not have to be updated, they point to the same location.

Sample code

PowerShell

Import-Module FarNet.Redis
$db = Open-Redis localhost:3278
Set-RedisString test:key1 Hello
Get-RedisString test:key1

F#

open StackExchange.Redis
let db = DB.Open("localhost:3278")
db.StringSet("test:key1", "Hello")
db.StringGet("test:key1")
