Integrating Redis Caching In Node.js For Improved Performance
Use Redis to cache API requests in Node.js! Install Redis, create a new project, and use `redis.createClient()` to connect. Cache data with `redisClient.setex()` and improve performance by reducing repeated fetches.
To demonstrate how to use Redis in a Node.js application for handling API requests, I'll show a simple example where Redis is used to cache the response of an API request.
Setup:
Install Redis: Make sure Redis is installed and running.
Create a new Node.js project:
mkdir redis-api
cd redis-api
npm init -y
Install Required Packages:
npm install express redis
Example Code:
Create a file app.js with the following code:
const express = require('express');
const redis = require('redis');
const app = express();
const port = 3000;
// Connect...
