Redis (RomM Cache / Queue)
Redis 7 provides the caching and task-queue backend for RomM on Dankserver.
RomM requires Redis (or Valkey) for its task queue; this deployment runs
stock redis:7-alpine — no Valkey here, unlike the SearXNG cache on
Dankclaw (Valkey).
Host: Dankserver — container name romm-redis, unit romm-redis.service
(user-manager quadlet from dankserver/romm/quadlet/romm-redis.container).
Facts (verified from the live unit)
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Image | docker.io/library/redis:7-alpine |
| Port | 6379 — internal only; no PublishPort, so it is unreachable from the host network by construction |
| Network | dankserver_appnet with alias=redis — that alias is what makes REDIS_HOST=redis in the RomM unit resolve |
| Data volume | /home/dank/Containers/romm/redis:/data |
| Auth | None — safe precisely because the container is not published anywhere; only appnet members can reach it |
Unit shape (as deployed)
[Container]
ContainerName=romm-redis
Image=docker.io/library/redis:7-alpine
Network=dankserver_appnet:alias=redis
Volume=/home/dank/Containers/romm/redis:/data
HealthCmd=redis-cli ping
HealthInterval=10s
HealthTimeout=5s
HealthRetries=3
[Service]
Restart=always
RestartSec=5
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
No EnvironmentFile — there is nothing secret in this unit; the auth-less
posture is enforced by network topology (alias-only reachability), not by a
password. If a future client ever needs Redis from outside the appnet, add
PublishPort and a requirepass in the same change — never just the port.
Backup
sudo rsync -a /home/dank/Containers/romm/redis /mnt/backup/romm-redis/
Redis here is cache + queue state; losing it costs queued jobs and cache warm, not the library (the database lives in MariaDB).
