Why i couldn't connect redis cli from local?

Question

I'm trying to connect redis-cli, but i can't. what is wrong?

Answer 1

Redis server is running in the container. The Redis image contains redis-cli binary.

You can connect the redis-cli binary in the running container if you're just hacking around stuff.

docker exec -it `docker ps --filter 'ancestor=redis' --filter 'status=running' --format '{{.ID}}'` redis-cli

Otherwise, follow through with the recommendation to install redis-tools.
