Set authentication using REDIS_ARGS

Pass Redis server flags via environment variables to enable authentication.

Usage

Use the REDIS_ARGS environment variable to pass Redis configuration flags like --requirepass.

Example

docker run -p 6379:6379 -p 3000:3000 -it \
  -e REDIS_ARGS="--requirepass yourpassword" \
  --rm falkordb/falkordb:latest

Notes

  • REDIS_ARGS accepts any standard Redis server configuration flags
  • --requirepass sets a password for authentication
  • Clients must use AUTH command or provide password in connection string
  • Essential for production deployments to prevent unauthorized access
  • Can combine multiple flags in REDIS_ARGS (space-separated)
  • The browser will prompt for the password when connecting
