iredis

A terminal client for Redis that adds interactive features such as auto‑completion, command validation, and syntax highlighting based on the Redis grammar. It presents query in a human‑friendly format, supports a pager for long output, and includes shortcuts like Ctrl‑C to cancel a command, Ctrl‑D to exit, and Ctrl‑R for reverse‑i‑search through history. The client can connect via URL, handle cluster redirections automatically, and offers NAT mapping for clustered deployments.

Additional utilities include a “peek” command that inspects a key’s type and retrieves its value accordingly, auto‑suggestions similar to fish shell, and built‑in help for each Redis command. Results can be piped to external tools, and responses can be decoded with UTF‑8 encoding. Configuration can be stored per server and the prompt customized through command‑line options or a rc file.

The tool is written in pure Python but distributed as a single binary via PyOxidizer, allowing use on systems without a Python interpreter. Installation is available through pip, pipx, Homebrew, apt, or direct binary download.
