GitHub Action
Redis Server in GitHub Actions
1.4.0
This GitHub Action starts a Redis server on the default port 6379
.
This is useful when running tests against a Redis database.
A code example says more than a 1000 words. Here’s an exemplary GitHub Action using a Redis server in versions 4 and 5 to test a Node.js app:
name: Run tests
on: [push]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
strategy:
matrix:
node-version: [10.x, 12.x, 14.x]
redis-version: [4, 5, 6]
steps:
- name: Git checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Use Node.js ${{ matrix.node-version }}
uses: actions/setup-node@v1
with:
node-version: ${{ matrix.node-version }}
- name: Start Redis
uses: supercharge/[email protected]
with:
redis-version: ${{ matrix.redis-version }}
- run: npm install
- run: npm test
env:
CI: true
You can start the Redis instance on a custom port using the redis-port
input:
name: Run tests
on: [push]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest

matrix:
node-version: [14.x, 16.x]

redis-version: ${{ matrix.redis-version }}
redis-port: 12345
- name: …
