Using a Redis service

The YAML code below creates two objects: a ExoscaleRedis instance and a Pod accessing it to show information about the instance. The latter references the redis-creds secret that will contain the access keys required to connect to the instance.

apiVersion: exoscale.appcat.vshn.io/v1
kind: ExoscaleRedis
metadata:
  name: my-redis-example
  namespace: my-namespace
spec:
  parameters:
    service:
      zone: ch-dk-2
    size:
      plan: hobbyist-2
  writeConnectionSecretToRef:
    name: redis-creds (1)
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: redis-client
spec:
  containers:
  - name: redis
    image: redis:7
    command:
      - /bin/sh
      - -c
    args:
      - redis-cli -u $REDIS_URL --insecure INFO (3)
    envFrom:
      - secretRef:
          name: redis-creds (2)

1	The operator will create a secret with the access keys to connect to the instance.
2	The pod will use the secret to connect to the instance.
3	Uses redis-cli to print INFO into stdout. Do not use --insecure in production. Only for demonstration purposes.
