Download the PHP package pantheon-systems/wp-redis without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package pantheon-systems/wp-redis. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Back your WP Object Cache with Redis, a high-performance in-memory storage backend.

Description

CircleCI

For sites concerned with high traffic, speed for logged-in users, or dynamic pageloads, a high-speed and persistent object cache is a must. You also need something that can scale across multiple instances of your application, so using local file caches or APC are out.

Redis is a great answer, and one we bundle on the Pantheon platform. This is our plugin for integrating with the cache, but you can use it on any self-hosted WordPress site if you have Redis. Install from WordPress.org or Github.

It's important to note that a persistent object cache isn't a panacea - a page load with 2,000 Redis calls can be 2 full seconds of object cache transactions. Make sure you use the object cache wisely: keep to a sensible number of keys, don't store a huge amount of data on each key, and avoid stampeding frontend writes and deletes.

Go forth and make awesome! And, once you've built something great, send us feature requests (or bug reports). Take a look at the wiki for useful code snippets and other tips.

Installation

This assumes you have a PHP environment with the required PhpRedis extension and a working Redis server (e.g. Pantheon). WP Redis also works with Predis via humanmade/wp-redis-predis-client.

  1. Install object-cache.php to wp-content/object-cache.php with a symlink or by copying the file.
  2. If you're not running on Pantheon, edit wp-config.php to add your cache credentials, e.g.:

    $redis_server = array(
        'host'     => '127.0.0.1',
        'port'     => 6379,
        'auth'     => '12345',
        'database' => 0, // Optionally use a specific numeric Redis database. Default is 0.
    );
  3. If your Redis server is listening through a sockt file instead, set its path on host parameter and change the port to null:

    $redis_server = array(
        'host'     => '/path/of/redis/socket-file.sock',
        'port'     => null,
        'auth'     => '12345',
        'database' => 0, // Optionally use a specific numeric Redis database. Default is 0.
    );
  4. Engage thrusters: you are now backing WP's Object Cache with Redis.
  5. (Optional) To use the wp redis WP-CLI commands, activate the WP Redis plugin. No activation is necessary if you're solely using the object cache drop-in.
  6. (Optional) To use the same Redis server with multiple, discreet WordPress installs, you can use the WP_CACHE_KEY_SALT constant to define a unique salt for each install.
  7. (Optional) To use true cache groups, with the ability to delete all keys for a given group, register groups with wp_cache_add_redis_hash_groups(), or define the WP_REDIS_USE_CACHE_GROUPS constant to true to enable with all groups. However, when enabled, the expiration value is not respected because expiration on group keys isn't a feature supported by Redis.
  8. (Optional) On an existing site previously using WordPress' transient cache, use WP-CLI to delete all (%_transient_%) transients from the options table: wp transient delete-all. WP Redis assumes responsibility for the transient cache.
  9. (Optional) To use Relay instead of PhpRedis as the client define the WP_REDIS_USE_RELAY constant to true. For support requests, please use Relay's GitHub discussions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why would I want to use this plugin?

If you are concerned with the speed of your site, backing it with a high-performance, persistent object cache can have a huge impact. It takes load off your database, and is faster for loading all the data objects WordPress needs to run.

How does this work with other caching plugins?

This plugin is for the internal application object cache. It doesn't have anything to do with page caches. On Pantheon you do not need additional page caching, but if you are self-hosted you can use your favorite page cache plugins in conjunction with WP Redis.

How do I disable the persistent object cache for a bad actor?

A page load with 2,000 Redis calls can be 2 full seconds of object cache transactions. If a plugin you're using is erroneously creating a huge number of cache keys, you might be able to mitigate the problem by disabling cache persistency for the plugin's group:

wp_cache_add_non_persistent_groups( array( 'bad-actor' ) );

This declaration means use of wp_cache_set( 'foo', 'bar', 'bad-actor' ); and wp_cache_get( 'foo', 'bad-actor' ); will not use Redis, and instead fall back to WordPress' default runtime object cache.

Why does the object cache sometimes get out of sync with the database?

There's a known issue with WordPress alloptions cache design. Specifically, a race condition between two requests can cause the object cache to have stale values. If you think you might be impacted by this, review this GitHub issue for links to more context, including a workaround.
