InitPHP Redis Management
------------------------

[](#initphp-redis-management)

> ## ⚠️ DEPRECATED — No Longer Maintained
>
> [](#️-deprecated--no-longer-maintained)
>
> This package was a thin convenience wrapper around the PHP `ext-redis` extension, adding prefix handling and automatic `serialize()` of values. As part of the InitPHP package consolidation, **it has been retired:**
>
> - **PHP 8+ ships `ext-redis` with fully typed methods**, so a wrapper adds little over the native API.
> - The automatic `serialize()` adds non-trivial CPU + network overhead and is rarely what callers want today.
> - No package in the InitPHP ecosystem currently depends on this one. (`initphp/cache` and `initphp/sessions` both talk to `\Redis` directly.)
>
> This repository is kept read-only for historical reference. **No further updates will be released.**
>
> ### What to use instead
>
> [](#what-to-use-instead)
>
> Pick the closest match to what you were doing:
>
> **Caching key/value data** — use [`initphp/cache`](https://github.com/InitPHP/Cache) with its bundled Redis handler:
>
> ```
> use InitPHP\Cache\Handler\Redis as RedisCache;
>
> $cache = new RedisCache([
>     'host' => '127.0.0.1',
>     'port' => 6379,
> ]);
> $cache->set('name', 'muhammet');
> ```
>
>
>
> **Storing session data** — use [`initphp/sessions`](https://github.com/InitPHP/Sessions) with its `RedisAdapter`. See the Sessions README for the Redis usage example.
>
> **Anything else** (Pub/Sub, Lua scripts, Cluster, pipelining, low-level Redis commands) — call `\Redis` directly. It is the canonical, fully-typed entry point and supports the full Redis feature surface:
>
> ```
> $redis = new \Redis();
> $redis->connect('127.0.0.1', 6379);
> $redis->set('name', 'muhammet');
> $value = $redis->get('name');
> ```
>
>
>
> Composer will surface this package as `abandoned` on `composer require`, `composer update`, and `composer outdated`.
