Specify which logical database to use with spring-data-redis

I'm using spring-data-redis, spring-session and Spring Boot to connect to my Redis instance. However I would like spring-data-redis to connect not to DB 0 (which is default) but to another local database (say DB 1). This is where I'd like the sessions to be stored. Is this possible with spring-data-redis?

Solution

  • The ConnectionFactory used by RedisTemplate offers configuration options for setting a default DB. Depending on the Redis driver in use both JedisConnectionFactory as well as LettuceConnectionFactory offer void setDatabase(int index).

    Using Spring Boot RedisProperties allows to set the default DB via setDatabase or by providing spring.redis.database.
