Redis Desktop Manager Redis Desktop Manager (RDM) is a fast open source Redis database management application for Windows, Linux and MacOS. This tool offers you an easy-to-use GUI to access your Redis DB and view keys as a tree, CRUD keys, execute commands via shell. The GUI for streamlined Redis application development. RedisInsight provides an intuitive and efficient GUI for Redis, allowing you to interact with your databases and manage your data—with built-in support for most popular Redis modules. It provides tools to analyze the memory, profile the performance of your database usage, and guide you toward better Redis usage. Connect to local or remote Redis servers and check out their database structure. Use the built-in management tools to add, remove, replace, relocate, and otherwise affect the files, folders, and archives stored on a selected server via the terminal or manually. The 2020.1.89 version of Redis Desktop Manager for Mac is available as a free download on our software library.
Friday, I received a snazzy new M1 Macbook Pro in the mail. This article outlines how I was able to set it up for doing web development. We'll set up Homebrew, PHP, MySQL, Composer, and Laravel Valet. Let's jump in!
The previous article outlines first impressions from the perspective of someone upgrading from a 2013 mac.
Setting up an M1 mac for PHP development is not much different than other macs. Unless you're using Docker, which doesn't work on the new ARM processor (yet — they're working on it). I expected to have way more problems being an early adopter, but Apple has done a wonderful job with their Rosetta 2 translation layer. It mostly feels invisible, so (except for a few terminal commands like homebrew) you hardly even notice it is there.
First, we'll need to install Homebrew. They don't have an ARM-compatible build ready yet, so this is where we'll need to use some Rosetta flags on the command line.
Install Rosetta on the command line with the following:
/usr/sbin/softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license
Next, add this function to your .zshrc
file. It makes a nice arm
alias for running commands with x86_64 architecture flags. Perhaps calling it x86
would be better? Shoutout to Matt Stauffer for posting this.
You'll need to run the homebrew commands with this prefix for now. We can copy the script from their site, add our arm
prefix, and homebrew should install!
Now that homebrew is installed, the rest of the Valet install is pretty much stock (except for Redis, which we'll get to in the next section).
Just run arm brew install php
— it's that easy! You may want to restart your terminal after this.
Normal besides the arm
prefix again.
Run the download script from Composer's website, then move the PHAR file to the bin folder. Also we'll add the global composer vendor folder to our system path.
Now add the following line to your .zshrc
file
Installing Valet should work as normal now. Run the following commands:
After that, I also ran cd ~/Code && valet park
.

Redis presented the only real speed bump I've encountered thus far. It installs via brew, but starting the Redis server doesn't work correctly (even though brew says it does). Until then, we can start the server manually.
First, run arm brew install redis
to install it.
Next, install the Redis PHP extension with PECL — pecl install redis
.
Starting the Server
Normally you'd use arm brew services start
to start Redis (and at login), but it's not working yet. That command just runs redis-server
under the hood. For some reason, this command only works with sudo right now. The workaround is to run this to start Redis server as a daemon:

Cleaning up after PECL (optional)
By default, PECL plops a new extension='redis.so'
line at the top of the main php.ini
file. I prefer to move this line to its own extension file. These steps are optional, but it's more in line with how extensions should be loaded in modern php versions.
Remove the extension='redis.so'
line that PECL added at the top of /usr/local/etc/php/7.4/php.ini
.
Then create a file at /usr/local/etc/php/7.4/conf.d/ext-redis.ini
with these contents:
After doing all of this, I'd recommend running valet restart
. Enjoy developing Laravel apps on your new mac!
If you encounter any problems or have any thoughts about this process, reach out to me on Twitter, I'd love to hear about them!
Redis uses a standard practice for its versioning: major.minor.patchlevel. An even minor marks a stable release, like 1.2, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8. Odd minors are used for unstable releases, for example 2.9.x releases are the unstable versions of what will be Redis 3.0 once stable.
You can also use the free Redis Cloud service from Redis Labs.
Scripts and other automatic downloads can easily access the tarball of the latest Redis stable version at https://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz, and its respective SHA256 sum at https://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz.SHA256SUM. The source code of the latest stable release is always browsable here, use the file src/version.h in order to extract the version in an automatic way.
The Github repository redis-hashes contains a README file with SHA1 digests of released tarball archives. Note: the generic redis-stable.tar.gz tarball does not match any hash because it is modified to untar to the redis-stable directory.
Download, extract and compile Redis with:
The binaries that are now compiled are available in the src
directory. Run Redis with:
You can interact with Redis using the built-in client:
You can install the latest stable version of Redis from the redislabs/redis
package repository. Add the repository to the apt
index, update it and install:
You can install the latest stable version of Redis from the Snapcraft marketplace:
