redis2json

redis2json is a simple (dependency free!) lua script which runs directly in redis.

usage

export redis db to json file

redis-cli --eval redis2json.lua > /tmp/redis.json

redis to couchdb

# create a couchdb database named "redis"
curl -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:5984/redis
# export redis keys and import than in couchdb database "redis"
redis-cli --eval "redis2json.lua" | POST -sS "http://127.0.0.1:5984/redis" -c "application/json"

limitations

1. Currently redis2json only supports keys with TYPE

• string
• list

1. There are proper ways to get a json string from you redis db

• rdb-rs
• redis-rdb-tools

Feel free to help and improve it!
