Installation

To build a Redis image, choose either the CentOS or RHEL based image:

• RHEL based image

  These images are available in the Red Hat Container Catalog. To download it run:

  $ podman pull registry.access.redhat.com/rhscl/redis-6-rhel7
  

  To build a RHEL based Redis image, you need to run the build on a properly subscribed RHEL machine.

  $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sclorg/redis-container.git
  $ cd redis-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make build TARGET=rhel7 VERSIONS=6
  

• CentOS based image

  This image is available on DockerHub. To download it run:

  $ podman pull quay.io/centos7/redis-6-centos7
  

  To build a Redis image from scratch run:

  $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/sclorg/redis-container.git
  $ cd redis-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make build TARGET=centos7 VERSIONS=6
  

Note: while the installation steps are calling podman, you can replace any such calls by docker with the same arguments.

Notice: By omitting the VERSIONS parameter, the build/test action will be performed on all provided versions of Redis.

Usage

For information about usage of Dockerfile for Redis 6, see usage documentation.

Test

Users can choose between testing a Redis test application based on a RHEL or CentOS image.

• RHEL based image

  To test a RHEL7 based Redis image, you need to run the test on a properly subscribed RHEL machine.

  $ cd redis-container
  $ git submodule update --init
  $ make test TARGET=rhel7 VERSIONS=6
  

• CentOS based image
