Usage Basic Example >>> import redis >>> r = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0) >>> r.set('foo', 'bar') True >>> r.get('foo') b'bar' The above code connects to localhost on port 6379, sets a value in Redis, and retrieves it. All responses are returned as bytes in Python, to receive decoded strings, set decode_responses=True. For this, and more connection options, see these examples. RE
