Hello again!

I would like to implement Redis authentication as an additional option in config.json file.

This is what I've investigated so far:


I am assuming that we are using this *version of redis*: https://www.npmjs.com/package/redis


Regarding the file */lib/config.coffee* in https://github.com/zaidka/genieacs/blob/ba33fc0fe09b9d1b0cd12dc876d0fafda1c9fa33/lib/config.coffee , What would be the best thing to do regarding this new functionality? I think the best is to add a new option whose name would be /REDIS_PWD : {type: 'string', default : ''}/ so when you call it in other files, maybe you can have a function which "extracts its content, and if it's blank, don't make any auth". I don't know if this can be done

But maybe the best is to have two independent entries, like /REDIS_AUTH : {type: 'bool', default : false}/ and REDIS_PWD : /{type: 'string', default : ''}/


Regarding the file */lib/db.coffee* in https://github.com/zaidka/genieacs/blob/1537603945335bb166ccb3fe8b0945fddaf623b8/lib/db.coffee , then, supposing we choose the first option, in the line 98, we would rewrite it as the following: /exports.redisClient = redisClient = redis.createClient(config.get('REDIS_PORT'), config.get('REDIS_HOST'), config.get('REDIS_PWD'))/ , isn't it? Or would it create problems if the password is not set?


Do you think that we need to change any more files?

If you say to me that it would be OK, then I could test it using a fork of the master branch, so then I could make a pull request. Do you have any compiler/bundler script that makes the test easier? What will I have to test/verify when everything is compiled?

Thank you for your kind help
