Recursive Documentation for Rails #30

Closed cguess closed 4 years ago

cguess commented 4 years ago

The documentation here states

For information on how to use this library in a Rails app, see the documentation for redis-rails.

However, the documentation on redis-rails says

We are still actively maintaining all other gems in the redis-store family, such as redis-actionpack for session management

Which doesn't really clean up anything. Would it be possible to clarify these instructions?

Also documented at redis-rails here https://github.com/redis-store/redis-rails/issues/106

I'm not quite sure what needs clarification here. The piece you quoted comes from the "quick note about Rails 5.2", in which Rails introduced a built-in Redis cache store. This somewhat obviated the need for a redis-activesupport, but the note there was to inform users about our maintenance plan going forward, in that redis-activesupport will only see security updates and bug fixes from now on. Gems like redis-actionpack and redis-rack-cache are still going to be fully supported, but since Rails comes with its own Redis cache store, we aren't going to be maintaining a competing library since that isn't really productive.

I'm gonna close this due to inactivity, and will assume my documentation is perfect :)
