With the liscense changes to redis there are several new forks out there. One that I am particularly interested in is redka <https://github.com/nalgeon/redka>.

[code]
  curl https://i.jpillora.com/nalgeon/redka | bash
  chmod +x redka
  ./redka database.db

We now have redis running on port 6379 that we can connect to with a redis client. And we have a sqlite database that we can inspect.

[code]
  ❯ sqlite3 database.db "SELECT name FROM sqlite_master;"
  rkey
  rkey_key_idx
  rkey_etime_idx
  rkey_on_type_update
  rstring
  rstring_pk_idx
  vstring
  rhash
  rhash_pk_idx
  rhash_key_id_idx
  vhash

We can look at the values in the vstring table.

[code]
  sqlite3 database.db "SELECT * from vstring;"
