This repository contains example Docker files to be used with the RU330 Redis Security course at Redis University.

You will need to install Docker to use the resources in this repository. Installation instructions for Mac, Windows and Linux can be found here. Make sure Docker is running before you attempt to build the containers.

The folder "1.6-Install-Redis" contains a Docker file, scripts, and Redis configuration file that build a container with Redis installed and configured as described in week 1's "Installing Redis Securely" video.

Use the build.sh script to build the container, and the login.sh script to start it and connect via a bash shell.

Once logged into the container, you can start Redis with:

# redis-server &

And connect to it using:

# redis-cli

The folder "3.6-TLS-Basic" accompanies the week 3 video "Encrypting Connections". It contains a Docker file and scripts to build a container that demonstrates how to make a secure connection to Redis.

Use the build.sh script to build the container, and the login.sh script to start it and connect via a bash shell.

Note: You'll first need to build the base container that this depends on (see "Installing Redis Securely" above).

Once you're connected to the bash shell in the container, change directory to the ru330 folder:

# cd ru330

From here, you can run:

• ./start-redis.sh - starts the Redis server in the background, with log output to /var/log/redis.out.
• ./redis-connect.sh - uses redis-cli to make a secure connection to the Redis server.
• ./stop-redis.sh - stops the Redis server process.

The folder "3.7-TLS-Advanced" accompanies the week 3 video "TLS 1.3, Mutual Authentication and Advanced TLS Configuration". It contains a Docker file and scripts showing a way to make a more advanced secure connection to Redis.

Use the build.sh script to build the container, and the login.sh script to start is and connect via a bash shell.

Note: You'll first need to build the base container that this depends on (see "Installing Redis Securely" above).

Once you're connected to the bash shell in the container, change directory to the ru330 folder:

# cd ru330

From here, you can run:

• ./start-redis.sh - starts the Redis server in the background, with log output to /var/log/redis.out.
• ./redis-connect.sh - uses redis-cli to make a secure connection to the Redis server.
• ./stop-redis.sh - stops the Redis server process.
