Aioredis is now in redis-py 4.2.0rc1!

Aioredis is now in redis-py 4.2.0rc1+

To install, just do pip install redis>=4.2.0rc1. The code is almost the exact same. You will just need to import like so:

from redis import asyncio as aioredis

This way you don't have to change all your code, just the imports.

Now that aioredis is under Redis officially, I hope there will never be an unmaintained, asyncio Redis lib in the Python ecosystem again. I will be helping out maintenance at Redis-py for the foreseeable future just to get some of the asyncio stuff out of the way. There are also some bugs that didn't make it into the PR that I'll be slowly migrating over throughout the next few weeks -- so long as my exams don't kill me beforehand :)

Thank you all so much for your commitment to this repository! Thank you so much to @abrookins @seandstewart @bmerry for all the commits and maintenance. And thank you to everyone here who has been adopting the new code base and squashing bugs. It's been an honor!

Cheers,
Andrew

AttributeError: __aenter__

locks not implemented

They don't work. We're still speculating how to do the locks properly since there was a debate on whether aredis's lock was correct. But aredis's lock does uhh functionally work so you can take their code. I think I'llmport it over too so it's not a big surprise.

When this project would be reverted to aioredis codebase instead of current one?
