why is this still in a PR ?, isn't it needed anymore ?

This PR is taken from https://github.com/kenn/redis-mutex/issues/5#issuecomment-14598578 but at this point, I'd prefer LUA scripting just like Redlock.

Why locks in Lua? is also worth reading.

I'll keep this PR open just for reference, but we need a fresh view. New PRs are welcomed.

Is this still an issue?

Yep. Still waiting for a PR.

@kenn so we should not use this for financial applications that rely on correct locks? asking for a friend :)

krtschmr avatar Jul 09 '19 15:07 krtschmr

Probably not.

kenn avatar Jul 09 '19 15:07 kenn

recommend any alternative?

Hi, we would like to use this gem,but unsure if its still active?

We have also run into the stalling in non blocking mode issue
