Does it support asyncio for redis cluster?

[kingluo]

It seems that the async version only supports a single Redis instance?

I can see comments from back in February from folks working on it. I think they originally tried to support clusters, but Im not sure if that was reprioritized.

No asyncio cluster support yet. Can't remember why I didn't implement it. I don't have the time to check it out again (tho I suppose I can give an hour right now to do it). IIRC I think I did implement it in aioredis. I think it was just a lot of refactoring.

We're almost there... at least for a few modules. @utkarshgupta137 contributed this PR

This was addressed with the addition of redis.asyncio.RedisCluster in v4.3.0, Although it's yet undocumented: https://redis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/connections.html#rediscluster-async

It's in 4.3.1 @agronholm but we definitely could use a hand with documentation. There was amazing work done by @utkarshgupta137 to get tests in - and they could be the basis for another improvement to our jupyter notebooks. Fancy having a crack at it?

I specifically said to use 4.3.1, since 4.3.0 was broken.

I'm sorry – I'm neck deep in other F/OSS projects :(

[chayim]

Alas... had to hope though ;). Thanks anyways @agronholm

I'd like to use redis with asyncio, is this stable other than the lack of documentation?
If so, I'd be happy to contribute where possible!!

[Andrew-Chen-Wang]

It is stable. Documentation can be found in aioredis documentation. Migrating that would also be appreciated. Note that the commands are the exact same, but they use different clients.

IMHO we should close this. asyncio works in cluster mode, and we have the associated tests. There are missing parity features (RediSearch), but those will land over time.
