Quick Start
Install
npm install @upstash/redis
Usage
import { Redis } from "@upstash/redis";
const redis = new Redis({
url: "UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL",
token: "UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN",
});
(async () => {
try {
const data = await redis.get("key");
console.log(data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
})();

environment

import { Redis } from "@upstash/redis";
const redis = Redis.fromEnv()(async () => {
try {
const data = await redis.get("key");
console.log(data);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
})();
