QRedis

QRedis provides a modern Qt client library for communicating with a Redis server. The code uses many new constructs introduced in C++11 and compiles exclusively with Qt 5, ensuring years of compatibility down the road.

Requirements

To compile QRedis, the following requirements must be met:

• GCC 4.6+ or Microsoft Visual C++ 2010+
• Qt 5+

It is not necessary to have Redis installed in order to build the client library. However, you will be unable to run the test suite.

Building QRedis

QRedis uses CMake for building the client library, which simplifies the necessary steps across all supported platforms. Assuming you have Qt 5 installed in a location that CMake can find, the client library can be built with the following steps:

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the QRedis source code.

2. Create a new directory that will contain the object and binary files produced by the build system and change to that directory:

    mkdir build
    cd build
   

3. Run CMake, which will produce the appropriate Makefile for your platform:

    cmake ..
   

4. On Unix-based build systems (including MSYS and Cygwin), run:

    make
   

   For Microsoft Visual C++, run:

    nmake
