Windows installs redis and sets the redis service to start automatically

Redis As a caching tool , It is mainly used to solve the problem of high concurrency , It is widely used in distributed system ,Redis Itself is applied to Linux/Unix Platform ( Deploy on the server ), The official didn't provide Windows Version of the platform , But the average developer is Windows Development and debugging under the platform , therefore , There needs to be Windows Version of Redis , This article will show you how to Windows Under platform installation Redis And will be Redis Set to service .
1 download Redis
Windows edition Redis Download address :[https://github.com/tporadowski/redis/releases]（ The latest version 5.0.14）(https://github.com/tporadowski/redis/releases)
( This is officially maintained by Microsoft , take Redis Migration to Windows platform , May lag behind the official Redis Version of )
Redis Official download address (Linux/Unix edition ): https://redis.io/download
About Windows Platform Redis Here are two versions , One is the installation version , The other is the installation free version , At the same time, both versions only support 64 position , I won't support it 32 position , The author downloaded the installation free version

2 install Redis
In fact, if you download the installation free version Redis Words , Installation is not required , Directly decompress the compressed package to run the service
The specific operation is :

2.1 Turn on Redis service
Decompressed Redis Run in the file directory redis-server.exe
After the command runs , Redis The service has been opened , You can test the connection directly , however , A little bit , This window can't be closed , otherwise , The service is shut down
( Here's a little tip , Press and hold... In the file directory shift + Right mouse button , The pop-up menu options will include Open command window here , The command line is directly in the current directory )
2.2 Test connection Redis service
Still decompressing Redis File directory , Reopen a command line window Run the command redis-cli.exe -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6379
( Here's an explanation ,Redis default ip The address is local , That is to say 127.0.0.1, The default port is 6379 port , This is in the configuration file redis.windows.conf Set in , It will be explained separately later )

2.3 To configure Redis service
Redis The configuration file for the service is Decompressed Redis File directory redis.windows.conf file
The author here only talks about a few basic parameters

• ip Address ( Default to native 127.0.0.1) : bind 127.0.0.1

• port ( The default is 6379) : port 6379

• Service password ( Default not on ): requirepass Come here ,Redis The service has been turned on , And the test connection is successful , The most basic operation has been completed , You can develop and debug on this machine

The following author will introduce how to Redis Your service is set to windows System services . As you can see from the demonstration just now , We can only in Redis Only by operating under the file directory of Redis Service for , This is too much trouble , Therefore, it is necessary to set it as a global system service ( It's like MySQL It's the same service ), You only need to open the command line window in any directory at a time
OK, Let's get down to business
3 take Redis Set to windows Service for
3.1 take Redis Add the extracted directory to the system environment variable
Right mouse button 「 My computer 」– choice 「 attribute 」– choice 「 Advanced system setup 」–
– choice 「 environment variable 」–
– Find it in the column of system variables 「Path」 This variable , Select and click... Below 「 edit 」–
– Click on 「 newly build 」, take Redis Copy and paste the directory address of the extracted file , Then click on the bottom 「 determine 」 , close window , Click all the windows in front 「 determine 」 After closing
OK, Redis Environment variables have been added , Let's move on to the next step

3.2 take Redis Services write windows service
Still decompressing Redis Create a new command line under the file directory , Enter the command redis-server.exe --service-install redis.windows.conf --loglevel verbose

3.3 View and set up Redis Service for
After writing, you can view and set in the system service
The operation steps are: ： Right mouse button 「 The task bar 」– Click on 「 Task manager 」— choice 「 service 」 Options — Click below 「 Open the service 」 Button , After opening the service window, you can find Redis Service for

You can set Redis Properties of the service , When we will Redis Set to windows After a service , The service is automatically opened by default , If we only need to start this service during development and debugging , After debugging, turn off the service , It can be Redis The system service is set to manual
Right mouse button 「Redis」 service — Click on 「 attribute 」 Button — In the pop-up window , take 「 Start type 」 Set to 「 Manual 」, And then click 「 determine 」 that will do

So now , The author has put Redis The setting becomes windows A service of , Now you can open the command line window in any directory to Redis The opening of the service ？ The answer is No , One last step Restart the computer , Because the modified environment variable has not yet taken effect
Additional explanation (20180304)
In the revision Redis Configuration file for redis.windows.conf When , Valid configuration item characters must be written in the top left space (eg: Canceling requirepass The front one # when , The front... Must be Space Delete , Otherwise, it will be thrown when the service is started Invalid argument during startup: unknown conf file parameter : requirepass abnormal , If it has been set to windows service , It will be thrown out. system error caught. error code=1053, message = StartService failed: unknown error abnormal )
3.4 Opening and closing Redis service
After restarting the computer , You can operate directly on the command line Redis Yes
Basic commands ：

• Opening service redis-server --service-start

• Close the service redis-server --service-stop

• Uninstall service redis-server --service-uninstall

• Service rename redis-server --service-name server-name thus , Complete . Now? Redis Already in Windows Installed under the platform , also Redis Set to service .
