Redli - a humane alternative to redis-cli

About

Redli is a Go-based alternative to the official Redis-cli application. It's major feature is that it mimics the redis-cli command line argurments while also understanding rediss: protocols and supporting a --tls flag allowing it to connect to TLS/SSL secured Redis without the need for tunnels. It also has a number of flags and environment variables for passing server certificates over as files or base64 strings. Note, passing a certificate turns TLS on by default.

  -p, --port=6379          Port to connect to
  -a, --auth=AUTH          Password to use when connecting
  -n, --ndb=0              Redis database to access
      --tls                Enable TLS/SSL
      --skipverify         Insecure option to skip server certificate validation
      --certfile=CERTFILE  Self-signed certificate file for validation
      --certb64=CERTB64    Self-signed certificate string as base64 for validation
