Instead of using "unix://" you should just use "unix:":
$old = 'unix:///path/to/redis.sock';
$new = 'unix:/path/to/redis.sock';
The old format should be considered obsolete and will not be supported
starting from the next major release of Predis.
Meh
This is handy for accessing remote Redis instances over a secure SSL connection
which is currently a popular option or even requirement with many cloud hosting
environments.
In order to configure the client to use an SSL-encrypted connection the scheme
in the connection parameters must be either "tsl" or "rediss" and a set of SSL
options (see http://php.net/manual/en/context.ssl.php) must be provided via the
"ssl" parameter as a named array.
The following example (which does not necessarily represent an example of good
practices!) illustrates how to set the "ssl" parameter using a named array and
the equivalent URI string:
// Parameters as named array
$parameters = [
'scheme' => 'tls',
'host' => '127.0.0.1',
'ssl' => [
'cafile' => '/home/adaniele/redis.pem',
'verify_peer_name' => false,
],
];
// Parameters as URI string
$parameters = 'tls://127.0.0.1?ssl[cafile]=redis.pem&ssl[verify_peer_name]=1';
Support for SSL is currently limited to the Predis\Connection\StreamConnection
backend but we intend to investigate if it is possible to extend this feature
to Predis\Connection\PhpiredisStreamConnection in the future.
Be aware that using encrypted connections may lead to a performance degradation
especially in the connect() operation due to the overhead of the TLS handshake.
Unfortunately there is no real way to reuse SSL sessions from userland, aside
from enabling persistent connections, but this will work only on PHP >= 7.0.0
because previous versions of PHP do not provide enough info about a stream from
get_stream_meta_data().
NOTE: Redis does not have built-in support for SSL-encrypted connections, but if
you want to expose it to public networks you may want to rely on "stunnel".
Actually we have just removed the server profile so nothing stops you
from reimplementing it, but Redis 2.0 has been released 4 years ago so
we are speaking of ancient releases that should probably not even be
used anymore.
* Renamed SingleConnectionInterface to NodeConnectionInterface since
this name is better and makes even more sense in the context of
cluster and replication scenarios.
* Moved specialized aggregate connections (the ones implementing both
predis and redis cluster and master/slave replication) in a newly
created Predis\Connection\Aggregate sub-namespace.
* Removed the "Connection" part from names of aggregate connection
interfaces in the Predis\Connection\Aggregate sub-namespace.
* Changed "Composable" to "Composite" in the name of interfaces and
classes that can use pluggable protocol processors.
