Connect Redis cache

Codefi Orchestrate uses Redis as cache system for Nonce management. Follow these steps to configure it when starting the Orchestrate Transaction Sender.

tip

Configure each microservice using microservice-specific environment variables. Command line options are also available and take precedence over environment variables.

Configuration

Environment Variable	Command line option	Description	Default
REDIS_HOST	redis-host	URL of the Redis server	localhost
REDIS_PORT	redis-port	Port of the Redis server	6379
REDIS_USER	redis-user	Redis username
REDIS_PASSWORD	redis-password	Redis password
REDIS_DATABASE	redis-database	Target Redis database name	-1

SSL/TLS Configuration

In addition to the options above, follow these steps to configure Redis over TLS communication.

Environment Variable	Command line option	Description	Default
REDIS_TLS_ENABLE	redis-tls-enable	Whether or not to use TLS communication with Redis server	false
REDIS_TLS_CERT	redis-tls-cert	TLS certificate
REDIS_TLS_KEY	redis-tls-key	TLS Private Key
REDIS_TLS_CA	redis-tls-ca	Trusted Certificate Authority
REDIS_TLS_SKIP_VERIFY	redis-tls-skip-verify	Whether the client verifies the server's certificate	false

When using TLS communication in production, it is not recommended to set redis-tls-skip-verify to true as that will open a breach to man-in-the-middle attacks.
