iocage-redis-plugin's Issues

Activate the unixsocket for redis

Please consider to activate the unixsocket for redis in a dedicated directory.

You could do that by adding following lines to post_install.sh
mkdir /run/redis
chown redis:redis /run/redis
sed -i '' 's#^.*unixsocket .*$#unixsocket /run/redis/redis.sock#' /usr/local/etc/redis.conf
sed -i '' 's#^.*unixsocketperm .*$#unixsocketperm 777#' /usr/local/etc/redis.conf

Sockets are faster than the connection over TCP and can be used via mount in other jails:
iocage fstab -a nextcloud /mnt/pool/iocage/jails/redis/root/run/redis/ /run/redis nullfs ro 0 0

Use redis version from ports

This plugin is compiling the redis version 6.4.2, however redis-6.2.6 as well as redis-7.0.0 (redis-devel-7.0.0.20211005) is available via pkg.

Consider updating to the version from pkg.
