Type 4 JDBC driver based on Jedis that allows Java programs to connect to a Redis database.

This driver is embedded into DataGrip.

Get The Driver

Download

You can download the precompiled driver (jar) on the releases page.

Build

# Linux, MacOs
./gradlew jar

# Windows
gradlew.bat jar

You will find driver jar in build/libs

Get Started

// Load the driver
try {
  Class.forName("jdbc.RedisDriver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
  return;
}

// Create a connection
try (Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:redis://localhost:6379/0", null, null)) {
  // Execute a query
  try (Statement statement = connection.createStatement()) {
    try (ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery("SET key value")) {
      // Process the result set
      while (resultSet.next()) {
        String result = resultSet.getString("value");
        System.out.println("result: " + result);
      }
    }
  }
}

URL templates

Redis Standalone

jdbc:redis://[[<user>:]<password>@][<host>[:<port>]][/<database>][?<property1>=<value>&<property2>=<value>&...]

Properties

Property	Type	Default	Description
user	String	null
password	String	null
database	Integer	0
connectionTimeout	Integer	2000	Connection timeout in milliseconds.
socketTimeout	Integer	2000	Socket timeout in milliseconds.
blockingSocketTimeout	Integer	0	Socket timeout (in milliseconds) to use during blocking operation. Default is '0', which means to block forever.
clientName	String	null
ssl	Boolean	false	Enable SSL.
verifyServerCertificate	Boolean	true	Configure a connection that uses SSL but does not verify the identity of the server.
hostAndPortMapping	Map<String, String>	null	Host and port mapping.
verifyConnectionMode	Boolean	true	Verify that the mode specified for a connection in the URL prefix matches the server mode (standalone, cluster, sentinel).

SSL

Set property ssl=true.

Pass arguments for your keystore and trust store:

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/client.truststore
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=password123
# If you're using client authentication:
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=/path/to/client.keystore
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password123

To disable server certificate verification set property verifyServerCertificate=false.
