predisHow can I use Redis with PHP to store binary data?


You can use Redis with PHP to store binary data by using the Redis PHP extension. This extension provides a client library that allows you to communicate with a Redis server from your PHP code.

To store binary data, you can use the set() method of the Redis client. This method takes two arguments, the first being the key and the second being the data.

For example:

$redis = new Redis();
$redis->connect('127.0.0.1', 6379);
$redis->set('my_binary_data', $binary_data);

The get() method can then be used to retrieve the data:

$binary_data = $redis->get('my_binary_data');

The following parts are involved:

  • $redis: An instance of the Redis client
  • connect(): Connects to the Redis server
  • set(): Stores data in Redis
  • get(): Retrieves data from Redis
