Rediskai

Local Redis admin UI built with Next.js for managing connections, browsing keys, and inspecting values without leaving your machine.

Highlights

• Save, rename, remove, and test multiple Redis connections
• Choose the active database before opening the browser
• Browse keys with SCAN, pattern filters, and incremental loading
• Inspect string, hash, list, set, zset, and stream values
• Edit string values, update TTL, delete keys, and copy values quickly
• Persist connection state locally in data/connections.json

Tech stack

• Next.js 16 + React 19
• Tailwind CSS v4
• Gravity UI + Radix primitives
• ioredis
• Shiki
• Sonner
• rstest

Requirements

• Node.js 20+
• pnpm 9+

Getting started

pnpm install
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000, add or test a connection on /connections, then open the Redis browser.

Scripts

pnpm dev
pnpm build
pnpm start
pnpm lint
pnpm format
pnpm typecheck
pnpm test
pnpm test:watch

Data storage

Connections are stored locally in:

data/connections.json

The file is created automatically on first use.

Notes

• String values that contain valid JSON are prettified before syntax highlighting.
• Non-string data types can be inspected today, but only string keys are editable.
• The browser route requires a previously tested healthy connection.

Roadmap

Current board

• Connection management
• Connection test before browser access
• Active DB selection
• Key list with SCAN, filters, and load more
• Key details with syntax highlighting
• Inspect string/hash/list/set/zset/stream
• Edit string values and TTL
• Delete keys
• Retry states for browser errors

Next

• Key editing for hash/list/set/zset/stream
• Key detail actions (rename, duplicate, export)
• Bulk operations (delete by pattern)
• Search history and favorites
• Persist selected DB per connection
• Metrics (key size, memory usage)

UX

• Skeleton loading states
• Empty states tailored by data type
• Theme presets
