Redis with Laravel series

@ChiragGude I wrote a post about setting up SocketIO if that helps you at all.

https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/step-by-step-guide-to-installing-socketio-and-broadcasting-events-with-laravel-51

As for best practices, session management, and caching etc, I haven't got anything to hand on that, although there are a number of videos on caching here.

@mstnorris Yeah, I've seen your guide earlier - it's top notch! I personally love Redis - it's a great tool for many web dev projects and I just felt that a comprehensive series with multiple use cases would be great to watch.

Thank you!

I agree with you, I too would like a series on that. I'm currently using Pusher and it is great, although having discussed usage and costs with them, I know that using Redis and Socket.io amongst others, run by myself is definitely the more cost effective way to go.

I support this request as well. :) Learning more about the capabilities and uses for Redis would be great. So far I have only implemented it for caching and would love to see where else it would be beneficial.

I'd like to see this as well. +1

+1 for redis series . the most important thing in this series will be best use cases in using redis data types in laravel web application .

Definitely. Although Caching with Redis is the same as Caching with any other format in Laravel so I don't really see the point in doing a tutorial on it since I believe it already exists in one of the Laravel Tutorial Series.

@JeffreyWay What are your views on doing a series on using Redis with Laravel?

+1 for redis. Laravels documentation itself isn't great either.

Hope it's more focused on the known use-cases like leader board, counting, tracking, session management, etc. That'd be great.

Jeffrey has uploaded an intro video to Redis and another video for event broadcasting.

Thanks for link jeloqim! But it will be great if Jef can create someting about this topic. I like Jef explanation (-:

@JeffreyWay it would be awesome to get more info on authentication and private channels with Redis and Socket.io

Guess we could google it but it's not quite the same

Thank you @JackJones but I meant something more like extending the Real time Laravel with Socket.io series that you mentioned there
