Session and Socket cannot use adapter 'ioredis'

[chenweiyj]

I have a redis replica cluster using sentinel. I must use ioredis to connect my service. However, sails default redis adapter cannot used. I tried ioredis, but it failed.

How to connect setinels in Sails.js?

Hi @chenweiyj, I haven't tried doing this myself. but if you'd post more information about the error message / stack trace you're seeing, other folks might be able to help, or something might jump out. You might also check out https://www.google.com/search?q=connect-redis+ioredis and https://www.google.com/search?q=socket.io-redis+ioredis

@luislobo any chance you've tried doing this before?

No, I never used it like that. How did you configure it?

@chenweiyj @luislobo update: @sgress454 is working on this for Sails v1 (at least on the sockets front)

For posterity: to use a custom Redis client with sails-hook-sockets, you'll want to use the pubClient and subClient settings (see http://sailsjs.com/documentation/reference/configuration/sails-config-sockets). See balderdashy/sails-hook-sockets#25

@mikermcneil Can you please provide any example on how to use pubClient, subClient settings. Not sure but i am not following how i should use redis with sentinel support. I tried to search a lot. Any explanation or example would be great.
