kevy-resp-client

A minimal blocking RESP2 client over TCP — pure Rust, zero dependencies.

Pairs with kevy-resp: this crate adds the TCP connect + send-request / read-reply loop on top. Suitable for tests, admin tools, and any caller that wants a stripped-down synchronous client without dragging in async or extra deps.

use kevy_resp::Reply;
use kevy_resp_client::RespClient;

let mut c = RespClient::connect("127.0.0.1", 6379).unwrap();
let reply = c.request(&[b"PING".to_vec()]).unwrap();
assert!(matches!(reply, Reply::Simple(b) if b == b"PONG"));

Speaks any Redis-compatible server (kevy, Redis 7.x, Valkey).

Scope

Intentionally tiny: connect, request/reply, no pipelining helpers, no pub/sub state machine. For pipelining, queue several commands and call request after each — every reply lands inline.
