Redis has gone down the path of that weird SSPL license, and it may removed by the package managers of some popular distros in the near future.

Valkey and Redict seem to be drop-in replacements, but the application needs to accommodate for these alternatives.

  • Add a --redis-bin=, a REDIS_BIN environment variable and a bin argument to the Redis plugin+backend to specify a custom Redis executable to be launched when --start-redis is specified.

  • [ ] When REDIS_BIN is set to a path to valkey or redict, then the Docker image should install those package instead of Redis (this only makes sense once those projects are included in the official package managers of at least Arch, Debian, Fedora and Alpine).
