hey @dmonad we replaced node-redis with io-redis in order to get it work with redis sentinel or valkey for that matter.
we would be happy to create a pr with this along some other changes (probably in separate prs)
you can have a look here: https://github.com/hpi-schul-cloud/y-redis/tree/io-redis
Both projects are now owned by Redis. I suspect that ioredis will eventually phase out of existence, so I want to stick with node-redis for now.
I hear that node-redis has a branch / beta release that supports sentinel. So support will land eventually.
@dmonad true, we think that as well, but it took them ages, and based on that speed it will take even longer ;)
