Add BEAM-related Redis clients

[jc00ke]

Hi there,

I thought it would be nice to list BEAM/Erlang-related Redis clients.

Thanks!

@jc00ke Thanks for your contribution!

Just to update you on this, we typically have a bit of internal discussion about a suggested client before adding it to this list (we try to be careful about what we recommend to users). I can't really give you a timeframe, but we should hopefully have a response for you fairly soon.

Hi, was there a reason this was closed and not merged?

Hi, was there a reason this was closed and not merged?

@jc00ke Hi. Yes - the reason is that the name "Community-supported clients" is perhaps a bit misleading for this list. The policy, apparently, is that we intend this mainly as a place to mention third-party clients that Redis contributes code to (or is planning to contribute to soon) and these may eventually get "promoted" to the main list with best-effort support (Predis and redis-rs actually started off in the community-supported list, for example).

However, we're planning to reinstate something the Redis docs had previously, which is a list of good quality third-party clients that is open to general contributions. I don't know what form this will take just yet, but I've kept a note of your BEAM clients for this list, and there are a few other clients we know of that will probably get added here too.

Hopefully you will see this next week - stay tuned :-)

Gotcha, thanks for the context. I'll keep an eye out!
