Initially inspired by the great work at CodeCrafters, I decided to try and implement Redis from scratch in golang, as a learning exercise.

This redis implementation includes the following features:

• TCP listening on exposed port 6379
• Handle concurrent client connections
• Serve RESP encoded queries coming from clients
• Return RESP encoded responses, including error messages
• Serve the following Redis commands:
  • PING
  • ECHO
  • GET
  • SET

The source code can be found in the src folder.

- src
    |- client
    |- core
    |- server

There, you'll find:

• The client folder (redis-go/redis) - an implementation of a Redis golang client
• The server folder (redis-go/server) - an implementation of a Redis server
• The core folder (redis-go/core) - code which can be used by both the client and server packages.
