can this module connect to redis 7 ? about connect-redis HOT 6 CLOSED

I am removing the legacyMode requirement in the next major version of this package. If you want to try it you can npm install connect-redis@next in your projects:

v7.0.0 has been released, closing

I am running 7 currently without issues. Did you run into anything?

You have to turn on legacy mode. It is a pain if you are using redis with the latest syntax.

Try this to get around

   const redisClient = redis.createClient();
    redisClient.on('connect', function () {
      console.log('Redis client connected');
    });
    const redisLegacy = redisClient.duplicate({ legacyMode: true });

    redisLegacy.on('connect', function () {
      console.log('Redis legacy client connected');
    });
   const sessionStore = new RedisStore({ client: redisLegacy})

I wanted to update the readme but the solution was already in it.

// redis@v4
const { createClient } = require("redis")
let redisClient = createClient({ legacyMode: true })
redisClient.connect().catch(console.error)

you can close this ticket i guess.

I'd swing in favour of keeping this ticket open, or replacing it with one to update from legacy mode. Redis v5 was released in 2018, and this is the recommended module for Redis session auth in the Redis docs. Judging by Stack Overflow, the legacy mode requirement is tripping people up regularly, and there are only going to be more problems as v4 syntax recedes into the past.
