Description: ## What ?
        
        A Redis client for Python supporting many Redis features and Python synchronous (Python 3.5+) and asynchronous (Python 3.6+) communication.
        
        ## [Why](https://xkcd.com/927/) ?
        
        - Transparent API (Just call the Redis commands, and the library will figure out cluster routing, script caching, etc...)
        - Per context and command properties (database #, decoding, RESP3 attributes)
        - Asynchronous I/O support with the same exact API (but with the await keyword), targeting asyncio, trio and curio (using [AnyIO](https://github.com/agronholm/anyio) which needs to be installed as well if you want async I/O)
        - Modular API allowing for easy support for multiple synchronous and asynchronous event loops and disabling of unneeded features
        - CI Testing for CPython 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 and PyPy3 with Redis 5 and Redis 6
        - No legacy support for old language features

        ## Roadmap
        
        Getting it out of alpha:
        - [ ] API Finalization (your feedback is appreciated)
          - [ ] Should calling redis be using \_\_call__() or a special method such as "command" for refactoring ?
          - [ ] Is the modify() API flexiable enough ?
          - [ ] Is it easy to extend the module ?
          - [ ] Should we add helper functions for SCAN iterators and other API ?
        - [ ] Resolving some of the TODO in code
        
        General:
        - More features in the support table
        - Better test coverage
        - Resolve all TODO in code
        - Move documentation to topics + docstrings
        - Automate code convertion between sync and async
        - More CI checks such as flake8, pylint, etc..
        
        ## Not on roadmap (for now?)
        
        - High level features which are not part of the Redis specification (such as locks, retry transactions, etc...)
        - Manual command interface (maybe for special stuff like bit operations ?)
        - Python 2 support (can be added, but after removing some misc syntax features)
        
        ## Installing
        
        The project can be found in PyPI as justredis. Install it via pip or requierments.txt file:
        
        ```bash
        pip install justredis
        ```
        
        If you want to use asynchronous I/O frameworks asyncio or trio or curio with this library, you need to install the AnyIO library as well:
        
        ```bash
        pip install anyio
        ```
        
        ## Examples
        
        ```python
        from justredis import Redis
        
        
        # Let's connect to localhost:6379 and decode the string results as utf-8 strings
        r = Redis(decoder="utf8")
        assert r("set", "a", "b") == "OK"
        assert r("get", "a") == "b"
        assert r("get", "a", decoder=None) == b"b" # But this can be changed per command
        
        
        # We can even run commands on a different database number
        with r.modify(database=1) as r1:
            assert r1("get", "a") == None # In this database, a was not set to b
        
        
        # Here we can use a transactional set of commands
        # Notice that when we take a connection, if we plan on cluster support, we need
        # to tell it a key we plan on using inside, or a specific server address
        with r.connection(key="a") as c:
            c("multi")
            c("set", "a", "b")
            c("get", "a")
            assert c("exec") == ["OK", "b"]
        
        
        # Or we can just pipeline the commands from before
        with r.connection(key="a") as c:
            result = c(("multi", ), ("set", "a", "b"), ("get", "a"), ("exec", ))[-1]
            assert result == ["OK", "b"]
        
        
        # Here is the famous increment example
        # Notice we take the connection inside the loop,
        # this is to make sure if the cluster moved the keys, it will still be ok
        while True:
            with r.connection(key="counter") as c:
                c("watch", "counter")
                value = int(c("get", "counter") or 0)
                c("multi")
                c("set", "counter", value + 1)
                if c("exec") is None: # Redis returns None in EXEC command when the transaction failed
                    continue
                value += 1 # The value is updated if we got here
                break
        
        
        # Let's show some publish and subscribe commands,
        # here we use a push connection (where commands have no direct response)
        with r.connection(push=True) as p:
            p("subscribe", "hello")
            assert p.next_message() == ["subscribe", "hello", 1]
            assert p.next_message(timeout=0.1) == None # Let's wait 0.1 seconds for another result
            r("publish", "hello", ", World !")
            assert p.next_message() == ["message", "hello", ", World !"]
        ```
        
        ## API
        
        ```python
        Redis(**kwargs)
            @classmethod
            from_url(url, **kwargs)
            __enter__() / __exit__()
            close()
            # kwargs options = endpoint, decoder, attributes, database
            __call__(*cmd, **kwargs)
            endpoints()
            # kwargs options = decoder, attributes, database
            modify(**kwargs) # Returns a modified settings instance (while sharing the pool)
            # kwargs options = key, endpoint, decoder, attributes, database
            connection(push=False, **kwargs)
                __enter__() / __exit__()
                close()
                # kwargs options = decoder, attributes, database
                __call__(*cmd, **kwargs) # On push connection no result for calls
                # kwargs options = decoder, attributes, database
                modify(**kwargs) # Returns a modified settings instance (while sharing the connection)
        
                # Push connection only commands
                # kwargs options = decoder, attributes
                next_message(timeout=None, **kwargs)
                __iter__()
                __next__()
        ```
        
        ### URI connection options
        
        ```Redis.from_url()``` options are:
        
        Regular TCP connection
        ```
        redis://[[username:]password@]host[:port][/database][[?option1=value1][&option2=value2]]
        ```
        
        SSL TCP connection (you can use ssl instead of rediss)
        ```
        rediss://[[username:]password@]host[:port][/database][[?option1=value1][&option2=value2]]
        ```
        
        Unix domain connection (you can use unix instead of redis-socket)
        ```
        redis-socket://[[username:]password@]path][[?option1=value1][&option2=value2]]
        ```
        
        For cluster, you can replace host:port with a list of host1:port1,host2:port2,... if you want fallback options for backup.
        
        You can add options in the end from the Redis constructor options below.
        
        ### Settings options
        
        This are the ```Redis()``` constructor options:
        ```
        pool_factory ("auto")
            "auto" / "cluster" - Try to figure out automatically what the Redis server type is (currently cluster / no-cluster)

        Read the cluster and connection documentation below for the options for the ```connection()``` and ```__call__()``` API
        
        ### Exceptions
        
        ```
        ValueError - Will be thrown when an invalid input was given. Nothing will be sent to the server.
        Error - Will be thrown when the server returned an error to a request.
        PipelinedExceptions - Will be thrown when some of the pipeline failed.
        RedisError - Will be thrown when an internal logic error has happened.
            CommunicationError - An I/O error has occured.
            ConnectionPoolError - The connection pool could not get a new connection.
            ProtocolError - Invalid input from the server.
        ```
        
        ## Redis command replacements
        
        The following Redis commands should not be called directly, but via the library API:
        
        ### Username and Password (AUTH / ACL)
        
        If you have a username or/and password you want to use, pass them to the connection constructor, such as:
        
        ```python
        r = Redis(username="your_username", password="your_password")
        ```
        
        ### Database selection (SELECT)
        
        You can specify the default database you want to use at the constructor:
        
        ```python
        r = Redis(database=1)
        ```
        
        If you want to modify it afterwards for a specific set of commands, you can use a modify context for it:
        
        ```python
        with r.modify(database=2) as r1:
            r1("set", "a", "b")
        ```
        
        ### Transaction (WATCH / MULTI / EXEC / DISCARD)
        
        To use the transaction commands, you must take a connection, and use all the commands inside. Please read the [Connection section](#connection-commands) below for more details.
        
        ### Pub/Sub and monitor (SUBSCRIBE / PSUBSCRIBE / UNSUBSCRIBE / PUNSUBSCRIBE / MONITOR)
        
        To use push commands, you must take a push connection, and use all the commands inside. Please read the [Connection section](#connection-commands) below for more details.
        
        ## Usage
        
        ### Connection commands
        
        The ```connection()``` method is required to be used for sending multiple commands to the same server (such as transactions) or to talk to the server in push mode (pub/sub and monitor).
        
        You can pass to the method ```push=True``` for push mode where commands have no direct response (else it defaults to a normal connection).
        
        While you do not have to pass a ```key=```, it's better to provide one you are about to use inside, in case you want to talk to a cluster later on.
        
        There are some instances you might want to talk to a specific server in a cluster (like getting keyspace notifications from it), so you can pass ```endpoint=``` instead of ```key=``` with that server's address.
        
        Check the [transaction or pubsub examples](#examples) above for syntax usage.
        
        ### Pipelining
        
        You can pipeline multiple commands together by passing an list of commands to be sent together. This is usually to have better latency.
        
        Notice that if you are talking to a cluster, the pipeline must contain commands which handle keys in the same keyslots of a given server.
        
        If some of the commands failed, an PipelinedExceptions exception will be thrown, with it's args pointing to the result of each command.
        
        Check the [pipeline example](#examples) above for syntax usage.
        
        ### Cluster commands
        
        Currently the library supports talking to Redis master servers only. It knows automatically when you are connected to a cluster (unless you disabled that feature in the constructor settings explicitly).
        
        If you want to specify multiple addresses for redundency, you can do so:
        
        ```python
        r = Redis(addresses=(('host1', port1), ('host2', port2)))
        ```
        
        You can get the list of servers with the ```endpoints()``` method.
        
        You can also send a command to all the masters by adding ```endpoint='masters'``` to the ```__call__()```:
        
        ```python
        r("cluster", "info", endpoint="masters")
        ```
        
        You can also open a connection to a specific instance, for example to get key space notifications or monitor it by adding ```endpoint=<the server address>``` to the ```connection()``` method).
        
        ### RESP2 and RESP3 difference
        
        The library supports talking both in RESP2 and RESP3. By default it will use RESP2, because this way you'll get same response whether you are talking to a RESP3 supporting server (Redis server version 6 and above) or not.
        
        You can still tell it to use RESP3 or to auto negotiate the highest version with the specific server:
        
        ```python
        r = Redis(resp_version=2) # Talk RESP2 only
        r = Redis(resp_version=3) # Talk RESP3 only (will throw an Exception if server does not support it)
        r = Redis(resp_version=-1) # Talk in the highest version possible
        ```
        
        You can read about RESP3 protocol and responses in the [Redis documentation](https://github.com/antirez/RESP3/blob/master/spec.md).
        
        RESP3 allows the clients to know the response type (such as strings, lists, dictionaries, sets...), and Justredis supports all of the response types.
        
        RESP3 provides an option to get with the results extra attributes. Since Python's type system cannot add the attributes easily, another configuration value was added, ```attributes``` which specifies if you care about getting this information or not, the default is False:
        
        ```python
        r = Redis(attributes=True)
        ```
        
        If attributes is disabled, you will get the direct Python mapping of the results (set, list, dict, string, numbers, etc...) and if enabled, you will get a special object which will hold the raw data in the ```data``` attribute, and the attributes in the ```attrs``` attribute. Notice that this feature is orthogonal to choosing RESP2 / RESP3 (but in RESP2 the attrs will always be empty), for ease of development.
        
        Here is an example of the difference in Redis version 6, with and without attributes:
        ```python
        >>> import justredis
        >>> r = justredis.Redis() # By default it connects via RESP2
        >>> r("hgetall", "aaa")
        [b'bbb', b'ccc', b'ccc', b'ddd']
        >>> r("hgetall", "aaa", attributes=True) # This is RESP2 with attributes, it has .data and .attrs
        Array: [String: b'bbb' , String: b'ccc' , String: b'ccc' , String: b'ddd' ] 
        >>> r = justredis.Redis(resp_version=-1) # This will connect to Redis 6 with RESP3
        >>> r("hgetall", "aaa")
        OrderedDict([(b'bbb', b'ccc'), (b'ccc', b'ddd')]) # This is Python's OrderedDict
        >>> r("hgetall", "aaa", attributes=True)
        Map: OrderedDict([(String: b'bbb' , String: b'ccc' ), (String: b'ccc' , String: b'ddd' )])
        ```
        
        ### Thread and async safety
        
        The library is thread safe and async safe. Do not pass Connection objects between different threads or coroutines.
        
        ### Modify
        
        You can change some of the settings on a per ```__call()__``` call, or if you want multiple calls to have different settings, you can use the ```modify()``` method on a Connection or Redis objects.
        
        Currently you can change the string decoder used, the database number and the attributes flag. Check the [examples](#examples) above to see how it's done.
        
        ### Serialization and deserialization
        
        The library supports as inputs only this types: bytes, bytearray, memoryview, str, int and float. If you pass a string, it will be encoded to bytes by the given encoder option (default is utf-8). Passing anything else will result in a ValueError.
        
        The library will return the data types that the RESP protocol returns as described in the RESP section. Exceptions will always be utf-8 string encoded and for other string results, you can decide to keep them as bytes, or to decode them to a string.
        
        ### Async support
        
        The API for the asynchronous commands is exactly the same, just adding "await" where it's needed:
        
        ```python
        AsyncRedis(**kwargs)
            @classmethod
            from_url(url, **kwargs)
            async __aenter__() / __aexit__()
            async aclose()
            # kwargs options = endpoint, decoder, attributes, database
            async __call__(*cmd, **kwargs)
            async endpoints()
            # kwargs options = decoder, attributes, database
            modify(**kwargs) # Returns a modified settings instance (while sharing the pool)
            # kwargs options = key, endpoint, decoder, attributes, database
            async connection(push=False, **kwargs)
                async __aenter__() / async __aexit__()
                async aclose()
                # kwargs options = decoder, attributes, database
                async __call__(*cmd, **kwargs) # On push connection no result for calls
                # kwargs options = decoder, attributes, database
                modify(**kwargs) # Returns a modified settings instance (while sharing the connection)
        
                # Push connection only commands
                # kwargs options = decoder, attributes
                async next_message(timeout=None, **kwargs)
                __iter__()
                async __next__()
        ```
        
        Don't forget there is no ```__del__()``` method in async code, so call ```aclose()``` or use async context managers when needed.
        
        ### Extending the library with more command support
        
        You can extend the Redis object to support real redis commands, and not just calling them raw, here is an example:
        
        ```python
        from justredis import Redis
        
        
        class CustomCommands:
            def __init__(self, base):
                self._base = base
        
            def get(self, key, **kwargs):
                return self._base("get", key, **kwargs)
        
            def set(self, key, value, **kwargs):
                return self._base("set", key, value, **kwargs)
        
        
        r = Redis(custom_command_class=CustomCommands)
        r.set("hi", "there")
        assert r.get("hi", decoder="utf8") == "hi"
        with r.modify(database=1) as r1:
            assert r1.get("hi") == None
        ```
