I am writing a program which creates and then uses Redis keys for message sorting. When i try to do this using my local Redis instance i can see that the keys are created and the program works fine. But when I try to do this using a Redis Cluster I am not able to view the keys on the cluster.

This is how i connect to the cluster –

constructor() {
        const clusterEndpoints = [{ host: env.REDIS_ENDPOINT, port: parseInt(env.REDIS_PORT) }];
        const redisPassword = env.REDIS_PASSWORD;

        const sslOptions = {
            tls: {
                rejectUnauthorized: false,
                minVersion: 'TLSv1.2' as const,
            },
        };

        const clusterOptions: ClusterOptions = {
            redisOptions: {
                password: redisPassword,
                ...sslOptions,
            },
        };

        this.client = new Redis.Cluster(clusterEndpoints, clusterOptions);

        // Log connection success
        this.client.on('connect', () => {
            logger.info('Successfully connected to Redis cluster at:', clusterEndpoints);
        });
    }

this established connection is then used by the sorting function-

    public async sortMessage(message: Message, messageTimestamp: number): Promise<number | null> {
        try {
            const heapKey = `{message_heap}`;
            const lastTsKey = `{message_heap}:last_ts`;
            const brandLastTsKey = `{message_heap}:brand_last_ts`;
            const brandCntKey = `{message_heap}:brand_count`;

            await this.client.eval(
                this.insertScript,
                4, // Number of keys
                lastTsKey,
                brandLastTsKey,
                brandCntKey,
                heapKey,
                String(messageTimestamp),
                String(limit),
                JSON.stringify(message),
            );

            return messageTimestamp;
        } catch (error) {
            logger.error('Error sorting message:', error);
            return null;
        }
    }

which in turn calls a lua script to do the redis functionality. I don’t think the lua script is the issue as the Redis operations work fine locally.

I can verify that I can connect to the cluster fine. I also have permissions to execute commands and read/write keys on the cluster. I also forced the keys to be in the same hash slot by using the ‘{}’ around ‘message_heap’

I tried connecting to the Redis Cluster and trying to locate the keys using GET <key_name> for the string keys. I can confirm the there is a master node with a slave replica on the Redis cluster, so it shouldn’t be an issue that I am hitting the wrong node.

I want to be able to see the keys pop up on the Cluster with their associated values when i try locating them using redis-cli, which i don’t see happening currently.

This is how i connect to the cluster-

redis-cli -h <host> -p 6379 -a <password> --tls --no-aut
h-warning --insecure -c
