Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import RedisClient from 'redis-client'

✗ const redis = require('redis-client')

Package has a default export. Use ESM import for clarity.

RedisClient

✓ import RedisClient from 'redis-client'

✗ import { RedisClient } from 'redis-client'

Named export does not exist; only default export.

createClient

✓ import RedisClient from 'redis-client'; const client = new RedisClient();

✗ const client = RedisClient.createClient();

No createClient function; instantiate with new.

Connects to Redis, sets a key, and retrieves it. Uses callback pattern. Note: Redis server must be running on localhost:6379.

import RedisClient from 'redis-client'; const client = new RedisClient(); client.on('connect', () => { console.log('Connected to Redis'); }); client.set('key', 'value', (err, reply) => { if (err) throw err; console.log(reply); // OK }); client.get('key', (err, reply) => { if (err) throw err; console.log(reply); // 'value' });

Errors

Common errors & fixes
