Redis Stack Binaries

This repo provides build rules to compile Redis Stack binaries from source for the Please build system.

Additionally, pre-built Redis Stack Binary artifacts are available for download from the GitHub release assets.

Prebuilt binaries of Redis Stack for Linux x86_64

These are intended for use in sandboxed or hermetic build systems (like Please), where installing via apt or building from source on the fly isn't ideal. This setup is perfect for SAT frameworks, CI pipelines, or constrained container environments.

✅ Available Versions

Redis Stack Version	Supported OS	Supported Architecture	Download Link
7.4.2	Linux	x86_64	Download

📦 What's Included

Each .tar.gz archive contains the following Redis Stack binaries:

• redis-server
• redis-cli
• redis-sentinel
• redis-benchmark
• redis-check-aof
• redis-check-rdb

These are dynamically linked against glibc and OpenSSL 3. They are compatible with most modern Linux distributions such as:

• Ubuntu 22.04+
• Debian 11+
• Fedora 36+
• Arch Linux

⚠️ Alpine Compatibility

These binaries will not run on Alpine Linux out of the box due to its use of musl instead of glibc.

A statically linked version compatible with Alpine is planned for a future release.

Basic Usage

Option 1: Use as a Please Plugin

1. Add the plugin to your project

   In plugins/BUILD:

   plugin_repo(
       name = "redis",
       owner = "jackmarsh",
       revision = "v0.0.1",
   )

2. Update your .plzconfig

   Add the following section:

   [Plugin "redis"]
   Target = //plugins:redis

3. Use the Redis Stack build rules in your project

   After setting up the plugin, you can use the redis_stack build rule to include Redis Stack binaries in your project. Example:

   subinclude("///redis//build_defs:redis")
   
   redis_stack(
       name = "redis_stack",
       version = "7.4.2",
       visibility = ["PUBLIC"],
   )

   This will build the specified version of Redis Stack binaries from source.

Option 2: Use Pre-built Artifacts

If you prefer not to build Redis Stack from source, you can directly download pre-built binaries from the GitHub release assets.

Example:

remote_file(
    name = "redis",
    url = "https://github.com/jackmarsh/redis/releases/download/v0.0.1/redis-7.4.2-linux_x86_64.tar.gz",
    hashes = ["<hash of the file>"], # Optional
)

🔧 Usage

Download and extract the tarball:

# Download the binary
curl -L -o redis-stack.tar.gz https://github.com/jackmarsh/redis/releases/download/v0.0.2/redis-7.4.2-linux_x86_64.tar.gz

# Extract it
tar -xzf redis-stack.tar.gz -C /path/to/destination

# Run Redis Server
/path/to/destination/redis-server
