Vapor Valkey

This project provides valkey-swift as a driver for Vapor caching and sessions.

Usage

To use this package, add it as a dependency to your Package.swift. Then create a Valkey client and assign it to Application.valkey:

import Valkey
import Vapor
import VaporValkey

let app = Application.make(.detect)

// Attach Valkey service to enable `Application.valkey` & `Request.valkey`
app.valkey = ValkeyClient(
    .hostname("localhost", port: 6379),
    eventLoopGroup: app.eventLoopGroup,
    logger: app.logger
)

// Use the Valkey client for Vapor caching
app.caches.use(.valkey())

// Use the Valkey client for Vapor sessions
app.sessions.use(.valkey())

When assigning the Application's valkey property (the app.valkey = valkeyClient line above), the Application will take ownership of the Valkey client's lifecycle. Specifically, this assignment operation will automatically run the client, and it will be automatically cancelled when the Application is shut down.

The Application's valkey property can accept either ValkeyClient or ValkeyClusterClient. For more information about these clients and their configuration, see valkey-swift.
