You can also specify the image and image version to use for the service. It must be compatible with the redis image.

export REDIS_IMAGE="redis"
export REDIS_IMAGE_VERSION="${PLUGIN_IMAGE_VERSION}"
dokku redis:create lollipop

You can also specify custom environment variables to start the redis service in semicolon-separated form.

export REDIS_CUSTOM_ENV="USER=alpha;HOST=beta"
dokku redis:create lollipop

print the service information

# usage
dokku redis:info <service> [--single-info-flag]

dokku redis:info lollipop --data-dir
dokku redis:info lollipop --dsn
dokku redis:info lollipop --exposed-ports
dokku redis:info lollipop --id

dokku redis:info lollipop --post-create-network
dokku redis:info lollipop --post-start-network
dokku redis:info lollipop --service-root
dokku redis:info lollipop --status
dokku redis:info lollipop --version

list all redis services

# usage
dokku redis:list

List all services:

dokku redis:list

print the most recent log(s) for this service

# usage
dokku redis:logs <service> [-t|--tail] <tail-num-optional>

flags:

  • -t|--tail [<tail-num>]: do not stop when end of the logs are reached and wait for additional output

You can tail logs for a particular service:

dokku redis:logs lollipop

By default, logs will not be tailed, but you can do this with the --tail flag:

dokku redis:logs lollipop --tail

The default tail setting is to show all logs, but an initial count can also be specified:

dokku redis:logs lollipop --tail 5

link the redis service to the app

# usage
dokku redis:link <service> <app> [--link-flags...]

flags:

  • -a|--alias "BLUE_DATABASE": an alternative alias to use for linking to an app via environment variable
  • -q|--querystring "pool=5": ampersand delimited querystring arguments to append to the service link
  • -n|--no-restart "false": whether or not to restart the app on link (default: true)

A redis service can be linked to a container. This will use native docker links via the docker-options plugin. Here we link it to our playground app.

NOTE: this will restart your app

dokku redis:link lollipop playground

The following environment variables will be set automatically by docker (not on the app itself, so they won’t be listed when calling dokku config):

DOKKU_REDIS_LOLLIPOP_NAME=/lollipop/DATABASE
DOKKU_REDIS_LOLLIPOP_PORT=tcp://172.17.0.1:6379
DOKKU_REDIS_LOLLIPOP_PORT_6379_TCP=tcp://172.17.0.1:6379
DOKKU_REDIS_LOLLIPOP_PORT_6379_TCP_PROTO=tcp
DOKKU_REDIS_LOLLIPOP_PORT_6379_TCP_PORT=6379
DOKKU_REDIS_LOLLIPOP_PORT_6379_TCP_ADDR=172.17.0.1

The following will be set on the linked application by default:

REDIS_URL=redis://:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-redis-lollipop:6379

The host exposed here only works internally in docker containers. If you want your container to be reachable from outside, you should use the expose subcommand. Another service can be linked to your app:

dokku redis:link other_service playground

It is possible to change the protocol for REDIS_URL by setting the environment variable REDIS_DATABASE_SCHEME on the app. Doing so will after linking will cause the plugin to think the service is not linked, and we advise you to unlink before proceeding.

dokku config:set playground REDIS_DATABASE_SCHEME=redis2
dokku redis:link lollipop playground

This will cause REDIS_URL to be set as:

redis2://:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-redis-lollipop:6379

unlink the redis service from the app

# usage
dokku redis:unlink <service> <app>

flags:

  • -n|--no-restart "false": whether or not to restart the app on unlink (default: true)

You can unlink a redis service:

NOTE: this will restart your app and unset related environment variables

dokku redis:unlink lollipop playground

set or clear a property for a service

# usage
dokku redis:set <service> <key> <value>

Set the network to attach after the service container is started:

dokku redis:set lollipop post-create-network custom-network

Set multiple networks:

dokku redis:set lollipop post-create-network custom-network,other-network

Unset the post-create-network value:

dokku redis:set lollipop post-create-network

Service Lifecycle

The lifecycle of each service can be managed through the following commands:

connect to the service via the redis connection tool

# usage
dokku redis:connect <service>

Connect to the service via the redis connection tool:

NOTE: disconnecting from ssh while running this command may leave zombie processes due to moby/moby#9098

dokku redis:connect lollipop

enter or run a command in a running redis service container

# usage
dokku redis:enter <service>

A bash prompt can be opened against a running service. Filesystem changes will not be saved to disk.

NOTE: disconnecting from ssh while running this command may leave zombie processes due to moby/moby#9098

dokku redis:enter lollipop

You may also run a command directly against the service. Filesystem changes will not be saved to disk.

dokku redis:enter lollipop touch /tmp/test

expose a redis service on custom host:port if provided (random port on the 0.0.0.0 interface if otherwise unspecified)

# usage
dokku redis:expose <service> <ports...>

Expose the service on the service's normal ports, allowing access to it from the public interface (0.0.0.0):

dokku redis:expose lollipop 6379

Expose the service on the service's normal ports, with the first on a specified ip adddress (127.0.0.1):

dokku redis:expose lollipop 127.0.0.1:6379

unexpose a previously exposed redis service

# usage
dokku redis:unexpose <service>

Unexpose the service, removing access to it from the public interface (0.0.0.0):

dokku redis:unexpose lollipop

promote service as REDIS_URL in 

# usage
dokku redis:promote <service> <app>

If you have a redis service linked to an app and try to link another redis service another link environment variable will be generated automatically:

DOKKU_REDIS_BLUE_URL=redis://:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-redis-other-service:6379/other_service

You can promote the new service to be the primary one:

NOTE: this will restart your app

dokku redis:promote other_service playground

This will replace REDIS_URL with the url from other_service and generate another environment variable to hold the previous value if necessary. You could end up with the following for example:

REDIS_URL=redis://:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-redis-other-service:6379/other_service
DOKKU_REDIS_BLUE_URL=redis://:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-redis-other-service:6379/other_service
DOKKU_REDIS_SILVER_URL=redis://:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-redis-lollipop:6379/lollipop

# usage
dokku redis:start <service>

Start the service:

dokku redis:start lollipop

stop a running redis service

# usage
dokku redis:stop <service>

Stop the service and removes the running container:

dokku redis:stop lollipop

pause a running redis service

# usage
dokku redis:pause <service>

Pause the running container for the service:

dokku redis:pause lollipop

graceful shutdown and restart of the redis service container

# usage
dokku redis:restart <service>

Restart the service:

dokku redis:restart lollipop

upgrade service to the specified versions

# usage
dokku redis:upgrade <service> [--upgrade-flags...]

flags:

  • -c|--config-options "--args --go=here": extra arguments to pass to the container create command (default: None)
  • -C|--custom-env "USER=alpha;HOST=beta": semi-colon delimited environment variables to start the service with
  • -i|--image IMAGE: the image name to start the service with
  • -I|--image-version IMAGE_VERSION: the image version to start the service with
  • -N|--initial-network INITIAL_NETWORK: the initial network to attach the service to
  • -P|--post-create-network NETWORKS: a comma-separated list of networks to attach the service container to after service creation
  • -R|--restart-apps "true": whether or not to force an app restart (default: false)
  • -S|--post-start-network NETWORKS: a comma-separated list of networks to attach the service container to after service start
  • -s|--shm-size SHM_SIZE: override shared memory size for redis docker container

You can upgrade an existing service to a new image or image-version:

dokku redis:upgrade lollipop

Service Automation

Service scripting can be executed using the following commands:

list all redis service links for a given app

# usage

Data Management

The underlying service data can be imported and exported with the following commands:

import a dump into the redis service database

# usage
dokku redis:import <service>

Import a datastore dump:

dokku redis:import lollipop < data.dump

export a dump of the redis service database

# usage
dokku redis:export <service>

By default, datastore output is exported to stdout:

dokku redis:export lollipop

You can redirect this output to a file:

dokku redis:export lollipop > data.dump

Backups

Datastore backups are supported via AWS S3 and S3 compatible services like minio.

You may skip the backup-auth step if your dokku install is running within EC2 and has access to the bucket via an IAM profile. In that case, use the --use-iam option with the backup command.

Backups can be performed using the backup commands:

set up authentication for backups on the redis service

# usage
dokku redis:backup-auth <service> <aws-access-key-id> <aws-secret-access-key> <aws-default-region> <aws-signature-version> <endpoint-url>

Setup s3 backup authentication:

dokku redis:backup-auth lollipop AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

Setup s3 backup authentication with different region:

dokku redis:backup-auth lollipop AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_REGION

Setup s3 backup authentication with different signature version and endpoint:

dokku redis:backup-auth lollipop AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_REGION AWS_SIGNATURE_VERSION ENDPOINT_URL

More specific example for minio auth:

dokku redis:backup-auth lollipop MINIO_ACCESS_KEY_ID MINIO_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY us-east-1 s3v4 https://YOURMINIOSERVICE

Disabling docker image pull calls

If you wish to disable the docker image pull calls that the plugin triggers, you may set the REDIS_DISABLE_PULL environment variable to true. Once disabled, you will need to pull the service image you wish to deploy as shown in the stderr output.

Please ensure the proper images are in place when docker image pull is disabled.
