Redis Commander

Redis Commander is a lightweight Node.js web application that provides a browser-based interface for inspecting and managing Redis instances. It exposes key browsing, inline editing, a built-in CLI and supports multiple connection methods and deployment options.

Key Features

• Browser-based tree view of Redis keys with expandable namespaces and key-type awareness
• Inline editing and CRUD operations for common Redis data types: strings, lists, sets, sorted sets
• Built-in Redis command-line interface in the browser with tab completion for commands and keys
• Support for multiple connection modes: standalone, Sentinel and Redis Cluster
• TLS options and certificate/key configuration for secure Redis and Sentinel connections
• Basic support for Streams (view/add/delete operations) and limited ReJSON document viewing
• Configuration via files, environment variables or CLI parameters; supports node-config semantics
• Official container image and Docker Compose examples; Kubernetes/Helm deployment examples included

Use Cases

• Quick debugging and exploration of Redis data for developers and operators
• Managing multiple Redis instances (local, staging, production) from a single UI
• Inspecting data structures and running ad-hoc Redis commands during development and troubleshooting

Limitations and Considerations

• Streams and ReJSON support are described as basic in upstream documentation; ReJSON is primarily view-only and Streams functionality is limited to simple view/add/delete operations
• Certain advanced Redis modules/features are not fully surfaced in the UI; administrators may still need direct CLI or module-specific tools for complex tasks

Redis Commander provides a compact, deployable web UI for everyday Redis management tasks, with flexible configuration and container-friendly packaging. It is geared toward developers and operators who need fast, visual access to Redis data without installing a heavy desktop client.
