# 📡 P3X Redis UI that uses Socket.IO, AngularJs Material and IORedis with statistics, console - terminal, tree, dark mode, internationalization, multiple connections, web and desktop by Electron. v2018.12.19-0

This is an open-source project. Star this repository, if you like it, or even donate! Thank you so much! :) I run my own server with dynamic IP address, so, it may happen, that the server can not be reachable for about max 15 minutes, due to nature of the dynamic DNS. The server may also be unreachable, when I backup the SSD with Clonzilla (very rarely) or an electrical issue (but this should not happen again). When the server is down, please hang on for 15-30 minutes and the server will be back up. All my domains (patrikx3.com and corifeus.com) could have errors, since I am developing in my free time. However, it is usually stable. **Bugs are evident™ - MATRIX️** ### Node Version Requirement ```

>=10.13.0

``` ### Built on Node ```

v11.5.0

``` The ```async``` and ```await``` keywords are required. Install NodeJs: https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/ # Description [//]: #@corifeus-header:end

`p3x-redis-ui` is a new Redis GUI which can serve as a backend server or as a desktop application. Some of the features are coming below.

👷 **The first full complete version was created in 20 days in September of 2018.**

## Development

It creates a package that allows you to compose `p3x-redis-ui-server` and `p3x-redis-ui-material` into one: [Server on GitHub](https://github.com/patrikx3/redis-ui-server) [Client on GitHub](https://github.com/patrikx3/redis-ui-material)

By default, only English is created, but given all strings are from a `JS` file, it is very quick to spawn another language eg. German, French, Spanish etc ...

[English strings, easy to translate](https://github.com/patrikx3/redis-ui-material/blob/master/src/strings/en/strings.js)

This solution is not using REST at all, but instead uses Socket.IO 🤣, which is weird, but I like it, it is supposed to be more responsive, as there is no big overhead in the HTTP protocol.

## Releases https://github.com/patrikx3/redis-ui/releases ## On ElectronJs

(The GitHub versions are always instant, while the ElectronJs Apps releases are delayed.)

## Screenshots [Screenshots readme](artifacts/readme/screenshots.md)

## Features * Works as a backend * Works as a desktop via Electron * I have * Linux * Windows * macOS

* I do not have the money to buy a macOS machine and build an Electron installer, but it would be very easy to do

* I took very careful of the error handling (as much I can find errors)

* Starts with no settings without config, or setup your own config * Able to create, test, save, delete multiple connections or a readonly connections setup, for shared usage

* Able to use the console and interact with Redis

* Online you are able to choose the tree separator, for example :, /, -, space etc... or even empty separator

* It is based on Redis-Commander and phpRedisAdmin

* You can select the database via console or the drop down. * The database select drop down shows if the checked database is empty or filled, so you can always know which is filled

* Save button to save the db * Full statistics pages, can be useful * This is just a New Kind on the Block in the Redis world, so, of course, there are advantages and disadvantages in the other Redis GUIs * Dark - Dracula / light themes

* Search * Client side mode searching in keys - small key set * Server side mode searching in keys - large key set * Search mode * the search keys starts with a string key * the search keys includes a string in the key

* From 320px width, it is supposed to be 100% responsive

* There is a key sorting function, which has a penalty, because it sorts with natural compare, which means it is more human display, then just raw characters, but up to 100k the keys is still ok. * There is a performance penalty for this application, given it uses AngularJS `ng-repeat` for the tree component. The best is if your application uses nested keys (something:nested:good), then the tree will be fast, but, for example, Nextcloud uses about 500 keys inline and it can take 5 seconds to generate the tree. * Another solution is that instead of the : separator for your app, you can use the / separator. Then it will be much more responsive, see the settings tree separator - Nextcloud should use / * A second solution is to use paging, the default paging is 50 keys * Maximum keys for this App * This application is usable up to 100k keys - given it pre-loads all keys and related info at once plus sorting - with natural comparing ... * In that case, loading all keys into the browser takes about maximum 5-15 seconds * For big key set to be usable paging should be a maximum 100 keys / page, though for 50 is the sweetest spot * This application is not recommended with over 100k keys, because it might just crash the NodeJs server. I can understand there are use cases where you need over 100k keys, but this is not that p3x-redis-ui. To make it to work with large set vs more functional cute app, it would require a larger re-architecture, of course you can find a better software on the web for large sets or pure redis-cli. * With some help, this could be implemented, but for now it looks like I will never use over 1k keys ... * Besides, there are functions like sorting and tree options that are very nice vs large sets ... This software is more functional than speed ...
