Redis Commander

Manage the Redis Commander Docker container for local dev environments. Provides a web UI for Redis key inspection at http://localhost:8083. Requires redis-manager and proxy-manager to be running first.

Manages the Redis Commander Docker container, providing a web UI for Redis key inspection and management.

Architecture

text

redis-commander/
├── docker-compose.yml   # Redis Commander container
└── run.sh               # lifecycle CLI

Connects to the shared nginx-proxy_net network and reaches Redis at codai_redis:6379. Access is protected by HTTP Basic Auth. No data is persisted — Redis Commander is stateless.

Commands

bash

./run.sh start    # start Redis Commander container
./run.sh stop     # stop container
./run.sh status   # show status and URL
./run.sh open     # print access URL

How to Execute Tasks

Start Redis Commander

Check your session context for the absolute script path, then run:

bash

<plugin-root>/redis-commander/run.sh start

Open http://localhost:8083 in a browser. Login: admin / admin (HTTP Basic Auth).

Check status

bash

<plugin-root>/redis-commander/run.sh status

Prerequisites

Start in this order:

1. proxy-manager start — creates the shared Docker network
2. redis-manager start — Redis must be running before Redis Commander connects

Configuration

Variable	Default	Purpose
COMMANDER_CONTAINER	codai_redis_commander	Container name
COMMANDER_PORT	8083	Host port
COMMANDER_USER	admin	HTTP Basic Auth user
COMMANDER_PASSWORD	admin	HTTP Basic Auth password
REDIS_CONTAINER	codai_redis	Redis hostname on shared net
REDIS_PASSWORD	redispass	Redis AUTH password
CODAI_NETWORK	nginx-proxy_net	Shared Docker network name

Rules

• Start redis-manager before this plugin — Redis Commander cannot connect without Redis.
• Port 8083 is bound to 127.0.0.1 — accessible from the host only.
• Change COMMANDER_PASSWORD on shared machines (default admin is not secure).
• Use stop when done; the container uses restart: unless-stopped and survives reboots.
