Is it possible to add connections by environment variables ?

[ygxxii]

I am using Docker Compose to setup Redis + RedisInsight , to build a simple test space.

Is it possible to add database connections in RedisInsight by environment variables in compose.yml ?

In the base version this docker image was built from it was not possible. But their code velocity in the last month or so is impressive, so there might be a feature which enables this. I'll check and see what's going on.

If possible, I'll try to mangle something via CURL and env vars in the entrypoint.

Any updates about that?

Working on it. As I've said. It needs to be done via entrypoint.

As a workaround, you can just add new connections issuing a POST request via curl:

curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"api-redis","host":"api-redis","port":6379}' localhost:5540/api/databases/

Ensure you replace the host and port with the correct ones of your redis instance.
