wardrobe

(I named it wardrobe because it's an in-house Redis replica I built. What better name for in-house storage than wardrobe )

wardrobe is a fast, minimalist in-memory key-value store written in Go, inspired by Redis. Built from scratch, it supports core Redis functionalities like persistence, replication, transactions, streams, and TTL — all accessible via redis-cli.

features

• In-Memory Storage – blazing fast access
• RDB Persistence – saves data to dump.rdb
• Master-Slave Replication – supports replication config
• TTL Support – with EXPIRE and time-based key eviction
• Transactions – with MULTI and EXEC
• Streams – with XADD
• Fully redis-cli compatible

how do you run this ?

1. clone and build

git clone https://github.com/siddarthpai/wardrobe.git
cd wardrobe
go build -o wardrobe

2. run the server

./wardrobe --port 8000

---

using redis-cli to test

redis-cli -p 8000

Example commands: checking if it works :

working with strings :

working with lists :

working with sets :

using transactions :

using expiration on values :

---

testing out replication

starting the master instance : creating the replica instance :

---

testing out persistence

• dump.rdb is auto-loaded on startup if available.

---

future enhancements

• supporting more data types, rn supports strings, lists and sets.
• snapshotting of rdb and AOF.
• look into making it more of a valkey replica with multithreading.
