Redis client goes offline after restarting the redis server several times

[aikms-maker]

Description

Code is written in NestJS If I repeatedly stop and start the redis server several times while the application is running, the redis client goes offline and cannot connect. When connecting from the application, the following error log is output.

ERROR [ExceptionsHandler] The client is offline

RedisClientOptions is defined as follows

const redisClientOptions: RedisClientOptions = {
      url: 'redis:/127.0.0.1:6379',
      database: 1,
      disableOfflineQueue: true, }
    };

If I don't specify database the reconnect is working fine but I want to specify database as 1. We expect the client to reconnect successfully no matter how many times we restart the Redis server.

I have prepared the code at the following URL https://github.com/aikms-maker/nest-node-redis

take care about disableOfflineQueue: When true, commands are rejected when the client is reconnecting.
