Description

Summary

Several user-facing examples in this repo still use Redis Stack images. Those examples should be updated to use Redis 8 (redis:8) instead.

Redis 8 includes the formerly separate modules needed by this project, so the docs/examples should reflect the current default recommendation and avoid steering users toward older Redis Stack images.

Places to update

  • docs/quick-start.md
    • docker run -d --name redis-stack -p 6379:6379 redis/redis-stack:latest
  • docker-compose.yml
    • image: redis/redis-stack-server:${REDIS_VERSION:-latest}
  • docker-compose-task-workers.yml
    • image: redis/redis-stack-server:${REDIS_VERSION:-latest}

Expected outcome

  • All example commands and compose snippets use redis:8
  • Wording refers to Redis 8 rather than Redis Stack
  • Quick-start guidance stays aligned with the repo's current Redis recommendation

Notes

I also noticed .github/workflows/python-tests.yml still includes a Redis Stack image in the test matrix. That may be intentional for compatibility coverage, so it could be handled separately if needed.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start with docs/quick-start.md, docker-compose.yml, and docker-compose-task-workers.yml, then inspect the existing Redis image and wording in each location. Update the listed examples to Redis 8 and ensure the commands and compose snippets consistently use redis:8; leave the separately noted test matrix for separate consideration.
