I have URL and PORT of remote Redis server. I am able to write into Redis from Scala. However I want to connect to remote Redis via terminal using redis-server or something similar in order to make several call of hget, get, etc. (I can do it with my locally installed Redis without any problem).

redis-cli -h XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -p YYYY
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address and yyyy is the port
EXAMPLE from my dev environment
redis-cli -h 10.144.62.3 -p 30000
Host, port, password and database By default redis-cli connects to the server at 127.0.0.1 port 6379. As you can guess, you can easily change this using command line options. To specify a different host name or an IP address, use -h. In order to set a different port, use -p.
redis-cli -h redis15.localnet.org -p 6390 ping

It says
Could not connect to Redis at -c:6379: Temporary failure in name resolution

@ duckertito- ABle to solve this issue ? I'm also facing the same

You can use
redis-cli -u redis://user:pass@host:port as well if you don't feel like entering host and port separately..

The host has a changing IP address (or none if you have no network access). We recommend that you connect to the special DNS name host.docker.internal which resolves to the internal IP address used by the host So
docker run -it --rm bitnami/redis:latest redis-cli -h host.docker.internal -p 6379 should workThere are two ways to connect remote redis server using redis-cli:
1. Using host & port individually as options in command
redis-cli -h host -p port
If your instance is password protected
redis-cli -h host -p port -a password
e.g. if my-web.cache.amazonaws.com is the host url and 6379 is the port
Then this will be the command:
redis-cli -h my-web.cache.amazonaws.com -p 6379
if 92.101.91.8 is the host IP address and 6379 is the port:
redis-cli -h 92.101.91.8 -p 6379
command if the instance is protected with password pass123:
redis-cli -h my-web.cache.amazonaws.com -p 6379 -a pass123
2. Using single uri option in command
redis-cli -u redis://password@host:port
command in a single uri form with username & password
redis-cli -u redis://username:password@host:port
e.g. for the same above host - port configuration command would be
redis-cli -u redis://[email protected]:6379
command if username is also provided user123
redis-cli -u redis://user123:[email protected]:6379
This detailed answer was for those who wants to check all options. For more information check documentation: Redis command line usage

How to connect to redis that used ssl. when I tried this
redis-cli -u rediss://default:[email protected]:25945, it throws Invalid URI scheme error.

@Arvin
redis-cli does not support TLS connections, so you’ll need to use a different tool that supports the rediss protocol in order to connect with the URI. I’ll suggest using redli(github.com/IBM-Cloud/redli) and this command to connect: redli --tls -u rediss://default:[email protected]:25945. But if you’re bound to use redis-cli then you’ll be needed to do extra config for the same. Check: redis.io/topics/encryption

For using single uri option in Java add database index at end: Example: if /0, then
redis://user:password@host:port/0In Case of password also we need to pass one more parameter
redis-cli -h host -p port -a password

Using a password on the command line can be insecure. A more secure version of this is to connect without the password.
redis-cli -h host -p port And then authenticate. host:6379> AUTH abcdefgOne thing that confused me a little bit with this command is that if redis-cli fails to connect using the passed connection string it will still put you in the redis-cli shell, i.e:
redis-cli
Could not connect to Redis at 127.0.0.1:6379: Connection refused
not connected>
You'll then need to exit to get yourself out of the shell. I wasn't paying much attention here and kept passing in new redis-cli commands wondering why the command wasn't using my passed connection string.

if you got Error: Server closed the connection
try with --tls switch:
redis-cli --tls -h my-redis.redis.cache.windows.net -p 6379 -a myRedisPassword
h👉 hostnamep👉 porta👉 password

If none of these responses are working then try:
redis-cli -u rediss://user:pass@host:port
