The docker run command below exposes redis-server on port 6379 and RedisInsight on port 8001. You can use RedisInsight by pointing your browser to http://localhost:8001.
# install
$ docker run -d --name redis-stack -p 6379:6379 -p 8001:8001 redis/redis-stack:latestYou can use redis-cli to connect to the server at localhost:6379. If you don’t have redis-cli installed locally, you can run it from the Docker container like below:
# connect
$ docker exec -it redis-stack redis-cliRedis Stack enables the JSON data type in Redis.
# syntax : set an object value to a key
> JSON.SET objKey $ value
# example
> JSON.SET person $ '{"name":"Leonard Cohen","dob":1478476800,"isActive": true, "hobbies":["music", "cricket"]}'
#------------
# syntax : get object value of a key
> JSON.GET objKey $
# example
> JSON.GET person $
#------------
# syntax : find object key length
> JSON.OBJLEN objKey $
# example
> JSON.OBJLEN person $
#------------
# syntax : find object keys
> JSON.OBJKEYS objKey $
# example
> JSON.OBJKEYS person $

Redis Stack enables a query and indexing engine for Redis, providing secondary indexing, full-text search and aggregations capabilities.
# syntax
> FT.CREATE {index_name} ON JSON PREFIX {count} {prefix} SCHEMA {json_path} AS {attribute} {type}
# NOTE: attribute = logical name, json_path = JSONPath expressions
# example
> FT.CREATE userIdx ON JSON PREFIX 1 users: SCHEMA $.user.name AS name TEXT $.user.hobbies AS hobbies TAG $.user.age as age NUMERIC
# NOTE: You can search by any attribute mentioned in the above index for keys that start with users: (e.g. users:1).Once index is created, any pre-existing/ new/ modified JSON document is automatically indexed.
//sample json document
{
"user": {
"name": "John Smith",
"hobbies": "foo,bar",
"age": 23
}
}# adding JSON document
> JSON.SET myDoc $ '{"user":{"name":"John Smith","hobbies":"foo,bar","age":23}}'# search all user documents with name 'John'

If you are new to Redis, we recommend starting with Redis University (RU101). RU101 is an introductory course, perfect for developers new to Redis. In this course, you’ll learn about the data structures in Redis, and you’ll see how to practically apply them in the real world.
If you have questions related to Redis, come join the Redis Discord server. Our Discord server is a place where you can learn, share, and collaborate about anything and everything Redis. Connect with users from the community and Redis University. Get your questions answered and learn cool new tips and tricks! Watch for notifications of the latest content from Redis and the community. And share your own content with the community.
There are essentially two ways you can use Redis:
If you choose to use local Redis we strongly recommend using Docker. If you choose not to use Docker, use the following instructions based on your OS:
Redis Stack supports probabilistic datatypes and queries. Below you will find a stock leaderboard example:

Redis Stack supports time-series use cases such as IoT, stock prices, and telemetry. You can ingest and query millions of samples and events at the speed of Redis. You can also use a variety of queries for visualization and monitoring with built-in connectors to popular tools like Grafana, Prometheus, and Telegraf.
The following example demonstrates how you might store temperature sensor readings in Redis Stack:
