In case your webstore has a Redis load balancer installed, some extra configuration is required for Redis to work properly with the NitroPack extension for Magento.
Configure NitroPack Redis caching
In your server terminal console, run the setup:config:set command and specify parameters that are unique to NitroPack caching.
php bin/magento setup:config:set --nitropack-cache-storage_type=<value> --nitropack-cache-redis_host=<value> --nitropack-cache-redis_pass=<value> --nitropack-cache-redis_db=<value> --nitropack-cache-redis_port=<value>
Use the table below to find all details regarding the different parameters:
Command-line parameter | Value | Meaning | Default value |
nitropack-cache-redis_host | Server | Fully qualified hostname, IP address, or an absolute path to a UNIX socket. The default value of 127.0.0.1 indicates Redis is installed on the Commerce server. | 127.0.0.1 |
nitropack-cache-storage_type | Cache Type | Type of Cache Storage | redis |
nitropack-cache-redis_port | Port | Redis server listen port | 6379 |
nitropack-cache-redis_pass | Password | Configuring a Redis password enables one of its built-in security features: the auth command, which requires clients to authenticate to access the database. The password is configured directly in Redis’ configuration file: /etc/redis/redis.conf. | Your chosen Redis password. |
nitropack-cache-redis_db | Database | Required if you use Redis for both the default and full-page cache. You must specify the database number of one of the caches; the other cache uses 0 by default Therefore by suggestion kindly use the default value 3. | 3 |
Example command
The following example enables Redis default caching, sets the host to 127.0.0.1, and assigns the database number to 3.
bin/magento setup:config:set --nitropack-cache-storage_type=redis --nitropack-cache-redis_db=127.0.0.1 --nitropack-cache-redis_pass=<your_redis_password> --nitropack-cache-redis_port=6379 --nitropack-cache-redis_db=3
