Description:
Redis is an open source, advanced key-value store. It is often referred to as a data structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets and sorted sets. You can run atomic operations on these types, like appending to a string; incrementing the value in a hash; pushing to a list; computing set intersection, union and difference; or getting the member with highest ranking in a sorted set. In order to achieve its outstanding performance, Redis works with an in-memory dataset. Depending on your use case, you can persist it either by dumping the dataset to disk every once in a while, or by appending each command to a log. Redis also supports trivial-to-setup master-slave replication, with very fast non-blocking first synchronization, auto-reconnection on net split and so forth.

Notes from UPDATING
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2025-05-02
    Affects: users of databases/redis
    Author: yasu@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      The databases/redis port has been updated to 8.0. Users wanting to
      stay on 7.4 can replace databases/redis with databases/redis74 with
      one of the following commands.
    
      If you use pkg with binary packages:
        # pkg set -o databases/redis:databases/redis74
        # pkg upgrade
      If you use portmaster:
        # portmaster -o databases/redis74 databases/redis
      If you use portupgrade:
        # portupgrade -o databases/redis74 databases/redis
    
      Keep in mind license term has changed with Redis 8.0. Now it is
      distributed under triple license of Redis Source Available License
      v2 (RSALv2), Server Side Public License v1 (SSPLv1) and GNU Affero
      General Public License v3 (AGPLv3).

    Author: yasu@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      The databases/redis port has been updated to 7.4. Users wanting to
      stay on 7.2 can replace databases/redis with databases/redis72 with
      one of the following commands.
    
      If you use pkg with binary packages:
        # pkg set -o databases/redis:databases/redis72
        # pkg upgrade
      If you use portmaster:
        # portmaster -o databases/redis72 databases/redis
      If you use portupgrade:
        # portupgrade -o databases/redis72 databases/redis
    
      Keep in mind license term has changed with Redis 7.4. Now it is
      distributed under dual license of Redis Source Available License v2
      (RSALv2) and Server Side Public License v1 (SSPLv1). If you don't
      want to accept either of them, then Valkey (databases/valkey) may be
      alternative for you. It is fork of Redis 7.2 and distributed under
      3-clause BSD license that is same as Redis 7.2 and before.

Update from 1.2.5 to 1.2.6.

<ChangeLog>

Redis 1.2.6 fixes two critical replication bugs, and a few
improvements.

- Fixed Issue 207 (http://code.google.com/p/redis/issues/detail?id=207)
  (broken replication with binary arguments not in the last position
  with the MSET command or any other command issued with new
  multi-bulk protocol).

- Fixed Issue 174 (http://code.google.com/p/redis/issues/detail?id=174)
  (temp names collisions producing broken slave-side .rdb files).

- Redis-cli backported from Redis master, with interactive mode, line
  editing via the linenoise library, auth ability, and much more.

- ZRANGEBYSCORE now supports WITHSCORES as well (backported from
  master).

- A simplified version of redis-stat (from redis tools) added.

Update from 1.2.1 to 1.2.2.

Feature safe:   yes

<ChangeLog>

redis-1.2.2 is a bugfix release, fixing a problem with BGSAVE and BGREWRITEAOF
copy-on-write semantics. This version of Redis will use a lot less CPU and
memory while performing a BGSAVE and BGREWRITEAOF operation.

It is very important to upgrade ASAP to this version if you are using Redis
with data persistence via snapshotting or append only file.

Another minor change is that the INFO command will now have a new field showing
memory usage in an human readable form. This was backported from Redis unstable
as well.

Previously and by default redis was compiled with debugging

possible to compile with debugging information by use
