The following is a brief tutorial on compiling and installing Redis on the Ubuntu 20.04 system:
-
Update system packages:
sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade
-
Install dependencies required for compilation:
sudo apt install build-essential tcl
-
Download the Redis source code:
wget http://download.redis.io/releases/redis-6.2.4.tar.gz tar xzf redis-6.2.4.tar.gz cd redis-6.2.4
-
Compile and install Redis:
make sudo make install
-
Configure Redis:
sudo mkdir /etc/redis sudo cp redis.conf /etc/redis
-
Modify the Redis configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/redis/redis.conf
In the file, you can make some configuration changes according to your needs, such as bind address, port, etc.
-
Create a Redis systemd service unit:
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/redis.service
Paste the following into the file:
[Unit] Description=Redis In-Memory Data Store After=network.target [Service] ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/redis-server /etc/redis/redis.conf ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/redis-cli shutdown Restart=always [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
-
Start the Redis service:
sudo systemctl start redis
-
Verify installation:
redis-cli ping
If you get a "PONG" response, Redis is successfully installed and running.
Note that the above is a basic example of compiling and installing Redis, you may need to further configure and adjust it according to your specific needs.
