RedisDump 2.1.0

Redis Dump Tool

A .NET command-line tool for dumping and restoring Redis data.

Installation

# Install globally
dotnet tool install --global RedisDump

# Install locally in the current directory
dotnet tool install --local RedisDump

Usage

Dump Redis Data

Dump all data from Redis to a file:

redis-dump dump --connection "localhost:6379" --output "redis-backup.json"

Dump a specific database:

redis-dump dump --connection "localhost:6379" --database 0 --output "redis-backup.json"

Dump multiple databases:

redis-dump dump --connection "localhost:6379" --database 0 --database 1 --database 2 --output "redis-backup.json"

Options:

• -c, --connection <CONNECTION_STRING>: Redis connection string (default: localhost:6379)
• -d, --database <DATABASE_NUMBERS>: Redis database numbers to process (can be specified multiple times). If not specified, all databases will be processed.
• -o, --output <FILE>: Output file path (default: redis-dump.json)
• -b, --batch-size <SIZE>: Number of keys to process in a single Lua batch (default: 100)
• --verbose: Show verbose output

Restore Redis Data

Restore data from a file to Redis:

redis-dump restore --connection "localhost:6379" --input "redis-backup.json"

Restore to a specific database:

redis-dump restore --connection "localhost:6379" --database 0 --input "redis-backup.json"

Restore to multiple databases:

redis-dump restore --connection "localhost:6379" --database 0 --database 1 --database 2 --input "redis-backup.json"

Options:

• -c, --connection <CONNECTION_STRING>: Redis connection string (default: localhost:6379)
• -d, --database <DATABASE_NUMBERS>: Redis database numbers to process (can be specified multiple times). If not specified, all databases will be processed.
• -i, --input <FILE>: Input file path (default: redis-dump.json)
• --flush: Flush the database before restoring (requires --force)
• -f, --force: Force restore even if database is not empty
• --verbose: Show verbose output

Features

• Dumps and restores all Redis data types (string, list, set, sorted set, hash)
• Preserves TTL values
• Supports multiple databases
• Beautiful console output with progress bars
• JSON preview with verbose mode
• Authentication support with password
• Batch processing for improved performance

Example

# Dump all Redis data
redis-dump dump --connection "redis-server:6379,password=mypassword,ssl=true" --output "backup.json" --verbose --batch-size 200

# Restore data to a new Redis server
redis-dump restore --connection "new-redis-server:6379,password=newpassword,allowAdmin=true" --input "backup.json" --flush --force

Connection String Format

The connection string format follows the StackExchange.Redis format:

server:port,option1=value1,option2=value2

Common options:

• password=secret: Redis password
• ssl=true: Enable SSL
• allowAdmin=true: Allow commands that might be considered risky
