PHP 7.3
Laravel 5.8
Until now I was using Predis for my cache in the Laravel project. Now I want to switch to PhpRedis. I've read it's really simple (just config changes), but I have a lot of problems. I don't know what to begin with, so I'll write all what I know.
My hosting provider claims that PhpRedis is enabled.
The code below executed in a controller (Predis is set) works fine - I receive the set value.
$redis = new \Redis();
$redis->connect( 'socket path', 0 );
$redis->set('test', 'testValue');
print_r( $redis->get('test') );
However, the same code in the raw PHP file executed via SSH returns "Uncaught Error: Class 'Redis' not found in..."
Let's go to changes in config/database.php. Here is my configuration:
'redis' => [
'client' => env('REDIS_CLIENT', 'predis'/*'phpredis'*/),
'cluster' => true,
'options' => [
'cluster' => env('REDIS_CLUSTER', 'predis'/*'redis'*/),
'prefix' => Str::slug(env('APP_NAME'), '_').'_',
'parameters' => ['password' => env('REDIS_PASSWORD', null)],
],
'default' => [
'scheme' => 'unix',
'path' => env('REDIS_HOST'),
'host' => env('REDIS_HOST'),
'password' => env('REDIS_PASSWORD'),
'port' => env('REDIS_PORT'),
'database' => env('REDIS_CACHE_DB', 0)
],
(...) // other
],
- When I change values to these in comments, my website shows just a blank page - any errors in the mailbox.
- Furthermore, when I run for example "php73 artisan config:clear" in the SSH, console returns
"Please remove or rename the Redis facade alias in your "app" configuration file in order to avoid collision with the PHP Redis extension." in the Illuminate/Redis/Connectors/PhpRedisConnector.php.
When I change the alias in config/app.php from "Redis" to "RedisManager" and try again it returns
Uncaught Error: Class 'Redis' not found in /path/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Redis/Connectors/PhpRedisConnector.php:70.
What's going on? How to set Laravel's configuration to use PhpRedis? Maybe it's my hosting provider issue? Thanks in advance for every advice.
If I missed some important code, give me a sign - I will add it.
