  port: 12345,
  host: '12.34.56.78',
  password: 'my secret',
  db: 4
})
var msg = {
  topic: 'hello world'
  payload: 'or any other fields'
}

mq.on('hello world', function (message, cb) {
  // call callback when you are done
  // do not pass any errors, the emitter cannot handle it.

mq.emit(msg, function () {
  // emitter will never return an error
})

API

MQEmitterRedis([opts])

Creates a new instance of mqemitter-redis. It takes all the same options of ioredis, which is used internally to connect to Redis.

This constructor creates two connections to Redis.

Alternatively, you can pass in an externally created Redis connection using the conn option. This can be useful when connecting to a Redis cluster, for example.

Example:

var redis = require('mqemitter-redis')
var Redis = require('ioredis')
var mq = redis({
  conn: new Redis.Cluster([{
    port: 6379,
    host: '127.0.0.1'
  }, {
    port: 6380,
    host: '127.0.0.1'
  }])
})
