Getting Started

The release of Valkey GLIDE was tested on the following platforms:

Linux with glibc 2.17 or higher.

MacOS Apple Silicon/aarch_64 and x86_64/amd64.

  • Full tests are running on MacOS 15.0 arm64/aarch64
  • Minimal tests are running on: MacOS 13.5 x8664/amd64(We do not recommend using MacOS Intel for production, It is supported for development purposes)_

All alpine versions that are using musl libc 1.2.3 (All Alpine non deprecated alpine versions) or higher should be supported. Tests are running on:

  • node:alpine (x86_64/amd64 and arm64/aarch64)

Node.js 16 or higher. For npm users on linux it is recommended to use npm >=11 since it support optional download base on libc, yarn users should not be concerned

  • Note: The library is dependent on the protobufjs library, which add a size to the package. The package is using the protobufjs/minimal version, hence, if size matter, bundlers should be able to strip the unused code. It should reduce the size of the dependency from 19kb gzipped to 6.5kb gzipped.

Development instructions for local building & testing the package are in the developer section.
