Redis Insight
futomaki.redisinsight
A Docker Compose file for Redis Insight alone, generated from the catalog and checked by the safety inspector. No account needed.
Graphical client for Redis covering keyspace browsing, command execution, memory analysis, slow-log inspection and live profiling, with per-type viewers for streams, JSON and search indexes.
Redis Insight connects to one or more Redis databases and renders the keyspace as a browsable tree with an editor appropriate to each data type, so a hash, a stream and a JSON document are each shown in a usable form rather than as raw protocol output. A workbench runs commands with syntax help and inline documentation, while analysis tools break memory down by key pattern, surface the slow log and profile live command traffic. Stored connections target standalone servers, clusters and sentinel-managed deployments alike. A first deployment registers the Redis service by hostname and browses its keyspace.
You know it worked when
- The interface loads in a browser.
- A Redis database registered by hostname and port connects.
- The keyspace browser lists existing keys with their types.
- A command run in the workbench returns the expected reply.
- Registered connections persist across a container restart.
Known sharp edges
- The profiler attaches to the live command stream and adds measurable load to a busy server.
- Stored connection details including passwords live in the container's data directory, so that volume is both a persistence requirement and a secret.
- It has no authentication of its own, and anyone reaching the port inherits every connection already registered in it.
- Memory analysis walks the whole keyspace and is better pointed at a replica than at a primary under load.
