Redis GUI by Redis
Chainguard Containers are regularly-updated, secure-by-default container images.
For those with access, this container image is available on cgr.dev
:
Be sure to replace the ORGANIZATION
placeholder with the name used for your organization's private repository within the Chainguard Registry.
RedisInsight is a free GUI for Redis that provides visualization, analysis, and debugging capabilities for Redis and Redis Stack. Chainguard's RedisInsight container image is comparable to the official RedisInsight images available on Docker Hub. However, the Chainguard image contains only the minimum set of tools and dependencies needed to function. This means it does not include things like a shell or a package manager.
The Chainguard RedisInsight image is built from the official RedisInsight source and provides the same web-based interface for managing Redis databases.
One important note is that the Chainguard RedisInsight image does not ship with RI_SEGMENT_WRITE_KEY
environment variable set so you have to set it manually. You can obtain a Segment Write Key by signing up for a free account at Segment.
The quickest way to get started with this image is by using Docker:
Once the container is running, you can access the RedisInsight web interface at http://localhost:5540
.
After accessing the web interface, you can add Redis database connections by clicking "Add Redis Database" and providing the connection details:
host.docker.internal
as the hostname (on macOS/Windows) or the host IP addressYou can also deploy RedisInsight alongside Redis using Docker Compose:
You can follow up the official documentation about how to deploy RedisInsight on Kubernetes: Deploying RedisInsight on Kubernetes.
But basically this is a simple example of a Kubernetes Deployment and Service for RedisInsight:
then apply it with:
Redis Insight also provides a health check endpoint at http://localhost:5540/api/health/ to monitor the health of the running container.
Chainguard's free tier of Starter container images are built with Wolfi, our minimal Linux undistro.
All other Chainguard Containers are built with Chainguard OS, Chainguard's minimal Linux operating system designed to produce container images that meet the requirements of a more secure software supply chain.
The main features of Chainguard Containers include:
For cases where you need container images with shells and package managers to build or debug, most Chainguard Containers come paired with a development, or -dev
, variant.
In all other cases, including Chainguard Containers tagged as :latest
or with a specific version number, the container images include only an open-source application and its runtime dependencies. These minimal container images typically do not contain a shell or package manager.
Although the -dev
container image variants have similar security features as their more minimal versions, they include additional software that is typically not necessary in production environments. We recommend using multi-stage builds to copy artifacts from the -dev
variant into a more minimal production image.
To improve security, Chainguard Containers include only essential dependencies. Need more packages? Chainguard customers can use Custom Assembly to add packages, either through the Console, chainctl
, or API.
To use Custom Assembly in the Chainguard Console: navigate to the image you'd like to customize in your Organization's list of images, and click on the Customize image button at the top of the page.
