Rule of disonnection

[Ruslan-I7]

Guys hello,

could u tell, how to properly disconnect redis 6 in express? Does it make sense to close the connection in each request?

What exactly method to use? CLIENT KILL, disconnect or something else? Quit is deprecated, so I'm not looking into this option.

And one more, if I use Prisma library where is said that

automatically connects when you run your first query, creates a [connection pool and disconnects when the Node.js process ends.

Maybe it doesn't make sense to make a disconnection of redis at all?

In most cases, you'll want to create one global client and never close it (unless the process closes, which is done automatically)

[ivan-kleshnin]

connect prevents the Node/Bun process from exiting. So what should we do to disconnect?
I hope you're not proposing to call process.exit? 😨

P.S
I'm using Redis in a CLI script. It's not a server process and it should terminate normally.

Thanks, I thought so too. But one guy said that he made disconnections after each request and I decided to clarify it. He had a lot of requests and requests were connected and disconnected redis very often. It made me confused
