Delete the hardcoded command table and replace it with an auto-generated table, based on a JSON file that describes the commands (each command must have a JSON file). These JSON files are the SSOT of everything there is to know about Redis commands, and it is reflected fully in COMMAND INFO. These JSON files are used to generate commands.c (using a python script), which is then committed to the repo and compiled. The purpose is: * Clients and proxies will be able to get much more info from redis, instead of relying on hard coded logic. * drop the dependency between Redis-user and the commands.json in redis-doc. * delete help.h and have redis-cli learn everything it needs to know just by issuing COMMAND (will be done in a separate PR) * redis.io should stop using commands.json and learn everything from Redis (ultimately one of the release artifacts should be a large JSON, containing all the information about all of the commands, which will be generated from COMMAND's reply) * the byproduct of this is: * module commands will be able to provide that info and possibly be more of a first-class citizens * in theory, one may be able to generate a redis client library for a strictly typed language, by using this info. ### Interface changes #### COMMAND INFO's reply change (and arg-less COMMAND) Before this commit the reply at index 7 contained the key-specs list and reply at index 8 contained the sub-commands list (Both unreleased). Now, reply at index 7 is a map of: - summary - short command description - since - debut version - group - command group - complexity - complexity string - doc-flags - flags used for documentation (e.g. "deprecated") - deprecated-since - if deprecated, from which version? - replaced-by - if deprecated, which command replaced it? - history - a list of (version, what-changed) tuples - hints - a list of strings, meant to provide hints for clients/proxies. see https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/9876 - arguments - an array of arguments. each element is a map, with the possibility of nesting (sub-arguments) - key-specs - an array of keys specs (already in unstable, just changed location) - subcommands - a list of sub-commands (already in unstable, just changed location) - reply-schema - will be added in the future (see https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/9845) more details on these can be found in https://github.com/redis/redis-doc/pull/1697 only the first three fields are mandatory #### API changes (unreleased API obviously) now they take RedisModuleCommand opaque pointer instead of looking up the command by name - RM_CreateSubcommand - RM_AddCommandKeySpec - RM_SetCommandKeySpecBeginSearchIndex - RM_SetCommandKeySpecBeginSearchKeyword - RM_SetCommandKeySpecFindKeysRange - RM_SetCommandKeySpecFindKeysKeynum Currently, we did not add module API to provide additional information about their commands because we couldn't agree on how the API should look like, see https://github.com/redis/redis/issues/9944. ### Somehow related changes 1. Literals should be in uppercase while placeholder in lowercase. Now all the GEO* command will be documented with M|KM|FT|MI and can take both lowercase and uppercase ### Unrelated changes 1. Bugfix: no_madaory_keys was absent in COMMAND's reply 2. expose CMD_MODULE as "module" via COMMAND 3. have a dedicated uint64 for ACL categories (instead of having them in the same uint64 as command flags) Co-authored-by: Itamar Haber <itamar@garantiadata.com>
Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
| Option | Impact |
|---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_servercontexttagscontext that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
| Tag | Indicates |
|---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode. |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not campatible with --tls. |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the
external:skip tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
