Support Classes

Package org.springframework.data.redis.support offers various reusable components that rely on Redis as a backing store. Currently, the package contains various JDK-based interface implementations on top of Redis, such as atomic counters and JDK Collections.spring-doc.cn

RedisList is forward-compatible with Java 21 SequencedCollection.

The atomic counters make it easy to wrap Redis key incrementation while the collections allow easy management of Redis keys with minimal storage exposure or API leakage. In particular, the RedisSet and RedisZSet interfaces offer easy access to the set operations supported by Redis, such as intersection and union. RedisList implements the List, Queue, and Deque contracts (and their equivalent blocking siblings) on top of Redis, exposing the storage as a FIFO (First-In-First-Out), LIFO (Last-In-First-Out) or capped collection with minimal configuration. The following example shows the configuration for a bean that uses a RedisList:spring-doc.cn

Javaspring-doc.cn

@Configuration
class MyConfig {

  // …

  @Bean
  RedisList<String> stringRedisTemplate(RedisTemplate<String, String> redisTemplate) {
    return new DefaultRedisList<>(template, "queue-key");
  }
}

    <constructor-arg value="queue-key"/>
  </bean>

</beans>

The following example shows a Java configuration example for a Deque:spring-doc.cn

public class AnotherExample {

  // injected
  private Deque<String> queue;

  public void addTag(String tag) {
    queue.push(tag);
  }
}

As shown in the preceding example, the consuming code is decoupled from the actual storage implementation. In fact, there is no indication that Redis is used underneath. This makes moving from development to production environments transparent and highly increases testability (the Redis implementation can be replaced with an in-memory one).spring-doc.cn
