This is an enhancement for INFO command, previously INFO only support one argument for different info section , if user want to get more categories information, either perform INFO all / default or calling INFO for multiple times. **Description of the feature** The goal of adding this feature is to let the user retrieve multiple categories via the INFO command, and still avoid emitting the same section twice. A use case for this is like Redis Sentinel, which periodically calling INFO command to refresh info from monitored Master/Slaves, only Server and Replication part categories are used for parsing information. If the INFO command can return just enough categories that client side needs, it can save a lot of time for client side parsing it as well as network bandwidth. **Implementation** To share code between redis, sentinel, and other users of INFO (DEBUG and modules), we have a new `genInfoSectionDict` function that returns a dict and some boolean flags (e.g. `all`) to the caller (built from user input). Sentinel is later purging unwanted sections from that, and then it is forwarded to the info `genRedisInfoString`. **Usage Examples** INFO Server Replication INFO CPU Memory INFO default commandstats Co-authored-by: Oran Agra <oran@redislabs.com>
Redis Test Suite
The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating
local redis-server
instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.
The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is
enabled using the --host
and --port
parameters. When executing against an
external server, tests tagged external:skip
are skipped.
There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:
Option | Impact |
---|---|
--singledb |
Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported. |
--ignore-encoding |
Skip all checks for specific encoding. |
--ignore-digest |
Skip key value digest validations. |
--cluster-mode |
Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode. |
--large-memory |
Enables tests that consume more than 100mb |
Tags
Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.
Tags can be applied in different context levels:
start_server
contexttags
context that bundles several tests together- A single test context.
The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:
Tag | Indicates |
---|---|
external:skip |
Not compatible with external servers. |
cluster:skip |
Not compatible with --cluster-mode . |
large-memory |
Test that requires more than 100mb |
tls:skip |
Not campatible with --tls . |
needs:repl |
Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server. |
needs:debug |
Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT ). |
needs:pfdebug |
Uses the PFDEBUG command. |
needs:config-maxmemory |
Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc. |
needs:config-resetstat |
Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics. |
needs:reset |
Uses RESET to reset client connections. |
needs:save |
Uses SAVE to create an RDB file. |
When using an external server (--host
and --port
), filtering using the
external:skip
tags is done automatically.
When using --cluster-mode
, filtering using the cluster:skip
tag is done
automatically.
When not using --large-memory
, filtering using the largemem:skip
tag is done
automatically.
In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to
run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC
use:
./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
