Hello everyone, I just subscribed to the mailing list to discuss the addition of phpiredis to the PECL respository. See https://github.com/nrk/phpiredis for the code repository of this extension, it's released under the BSD license and maintained by me.
phpiredis (not to be confused with phpredis) is a tiny and KISS extension for Redis compatible with both PHP 5 and 7 that uses the official C client library (hiredis) under the hood. It can be used as a standalone client for Redis but also exposes a few utilities, such as a serializer and an incremental parser for the Redis protocol, that can be used by pure-PHP and more full-featured implementations of Redis clients to speed things up where it matters. This is already the case with Predis https://github.com/nrk/predis which is a pure-PHP client library that can optionally rely on phpiredis to gain a significant speed boost. Actually this extension exists since a few years, it's been created in 2010 and I stepped up as a maintainer in 2012, but for various reasons the first release was pushed just a few days ago. This is also the reason why I waited so long to request for it to be added to PECL despite various requests from users in the past months. I still have to officially apply for a PECL account on https://pecl.php.net/account-request.php, I wanted to introduce this extension and eventually get some guidance before doing that.
