Summary

Added support for Redis Cluster

This change allows for Cluster to be used instead of Redis when initialising the kvstore / mq

Cluster implements the same interface as Redis and exposes the same methods, so should be ok as a drop-in replacement

Related Issue

Changes

Redis kv and mq updated to accept Cluster in place of Redis

Benefits

Allows clustered Redis to be used

Summary of Changes

Hello @mike182uk, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces support for Redis Cluster within the @fedify/redis package, enabling kvstore and mq components to utilize a clustered Redis setup. The change allows ioredis Cluster instances to be used as a drop-in replacement for Redis instances, maintaining the same interface and methods. This enhancement provides the benefit of allowing applications to leverage the scalability and high availability of Redis Cluster for their key-value store and message queue needs. The update includes necessary type adjustments and documentation examples to guide users on integrating clustered Redis.

Highlights

  • Redis Cluster Support: The RedisKvStore and RedisMessageQueue classes now accept an ioredis Cluster instance in their constructors, allowing the use of Redis Cluster for key-value storage and message queuing.
  • Updated Documentation and Examples: The packages/redis/README.md file has been updated with clear TypeScript examples demonstrating how to initialize RedisKvStore and RedisMessageQueue using both standalone Redis and Redis Cluster configurations.
  • Enhanced Type Compatibility: Type definitions for the Redis client instances within RedisKvStore and RedisMessageQueue have been updated to Redis | Cluster, providing type safety for both standalone and clustered Redis connections.
  • TypeScript Interface Compatibility Fix: A specific TypeScript cast was introduced in packages/redis/src/mq.ts for the on and off event methods on the subRedis client. This addresses an incompatibility between the ioredis Redis and Cluster TypeScript interfaces, ensuring proper pub/sub functionality while maintaining type correctness.

Code Review

This pull request adds support for Redis Cluster, which is a great enhancement. The changes in kv.ts and mq.ts are well-implemented, including the handling of type incompatibilities between ioredis's Redis and Cluster classes. However, I've noticed that there are no new tests to cover the Redis Cluster functionality. Adding tests for this new feature would be crucial to ensure its stability and prevent future regressions. I've also left a few minor suggestions in the code to improve documentation and readability.

iirc, pubsub works weirdly in cluster, same with anything that needs a queue, which is why Mastodon implements redis sentinel instead — plus redis cluster is a right PITA to run/test locally, because it requires like 3 containers minimum (by contrast, kafka can work with one now)

Also, just having the hosts alone for cluster won't help you if you're trying to deploy against say AWS MemoryDB (all I remember from doing this last year was that getting it working was a right pain)
