Debugging Redis Module

Lately, I’m working with custom redis-modules and I need to say: redis-modules kick ass. I started working with Cthulu and coding modules with javascript which was nice and very productive but given some of my current use cases I had to go to C. I recommend you take a look at my previous posts here:

- Building Redis-Modules with JavaScript using Cthulhu

- Dispatching Custom Commands with Lettuce and Redis-Modules

Today I want to you how to do proper debug with Redis modules written in C language. I will be using eclipse Oxygen CPP in order to debug redis module and redis 4.

Here there is a video which I recorded with a simple live demo about how to debug a redis-module project and redis. The source code is available on my GitHub. I hope this is useful for you.
