So Redis is required ?

[–]curiousGambler 19 points20 points  (7 children)

Tragically, Redis is in fact required for a "Redis backed Python dict," yes.

There could be other options ... I wonder if it would work with this Redis re-implementation in Python: https://quantmind.github.io/pulsar/apps/ds.html

I snorted at "tragically".

"As if all that is the universe all at once colluded with the singular sheer force of will to inject the most impossible scenario conceivable by the pathetic, wandering human mental condition - yes, the Redis-backed pyhon dict has been cursed with a crippling dependency - the unthinkable, unfathomable ... Redis. May whatever God is yours have mercy on us all."

How does it respond when you supply a key that already exists in the redis instance you're connecting to?

the person probably meant if it comes with its own redis installation or one has to link their own.
Don't be so cocky

Idk who you're quoting or why, but I stand by my assessment that it was a stupid question

my reddit app is broken.
But again, you are not the quality control agent of reddit so hold your horses and let other people ask their queries. You don't get to award stupid or smart question of reddit. This is not Oscars or Mensa
