Redis adapter
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'flipper-redis'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself with:
$ gem install flipper-redis
Usage
In most cases, all you need to do is require the adapter. It will connect to the Redis instance specified in the REDIS_URL or FLIPPER_REDIS_URL environment vairable, or localhost by default.
require 'flipper/adapters/redis'
If you need to customize the adapter, you can add this to an initializer:
Flipper.configure do |config|
config.adapter { Flipper::Adapters::Redis.new(Redis.new) }
end
Internals
## Internals
Each feature is stored in a redis hash, which means getting a feature is single query.
require 'flipper/adapters/redis'
client = Redis.new
adapter = Flipper::Adapters::Redis.new(client)
flipper = Flipper.new(adapter)
# Register a few groups.
Flipper.register(:admins) { |thing| thing.admin? }
Flipper.register(:early_access) { |thing| thing.early_access? }
# Create a user class that has flipper_id instance method.
User = Struct.new(:flipper_id)
flipper[:stats].enable
flipper[:stats].enable_group :admins
flipper[:stats].enable_group :early_access
flipper[:stats].enable_actor User.new('25')
flipper[:stats].enable_actor User.new('90')
flipper[:stats].enable_actor User.new('180')
flipper[:stats].enable_percentage_of_time 15
flipper[:stats].enable_percentage_of_actors 45
flipper[:search].enable
