## Introduction
**RediStack** (pronounced like "ready stack") is a _non-blocking_ Swift client for [Redis](https://redis.io) built on top of [SwiftNIO](https://github.com/apple/swift-nio).
It communicates over the network using Redis' [**Re**dis **S**eralization **P**rotocol (RESP2)](https://redis.io/topics/protocol).
The table below lists the major releases alongside their compatible language, dependency, and Redis versions.
| SPM Version | [Swift](https://swift.org/download) | [Redis](https://redis.io) | [SwiftNIO](https://github.com/apple/swift-nio) | [SwiftLog](https://github.com/apple/swift-log) | [SwiftMetrics](https://github.com/apple/swift-metrics) |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| `from: "1.0.0-alpha.5"` | 5.0+ | 5.0+ | 2.x | 1.x | 1.x |
### Supported Operating Systems
**RediStack** runs anywhere that is officially supported by the [Swift project](https://swift.org/download/#releases).
See the [test matrix below for more details](#language-and-platform-test-matrix).
## Installing
To install **RediStack**, just add the package as a dependency in your **Package.swift**.
```swift
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://gitlab.com/mordil/swift-redi-stack.git", from: "1.0.0-alpha.5")
]
```
## Getting Started
**RediStack** is quick to use - all you need is an [`EventLoop`](https://apple.github.io/swift-nio/docs/current/NIO/Protocols/EventLoop.html) from **SwiftNIO**.
```swift
import NIO
import RediStack
let eventLoop: EventLoop = ...
let connection = RedisConnection.connect(
to: try .init(ipAddress: "127.0.0.1", port: RedisConnection.defaultPort),
on: eventLoop
).wait()
let result = try connection.set("my_key", to: "some value")
.flatMap { return connection.get("my_key") }
.wait()
print(result) // Optional("some value")
```
> _**Note**: Use of `wait()` was used here for simplicity. Never call this method on an `eventLoop`!_
