# Jedis Redis Client for Minecraft<\/p>\n
Jedis, the most widely used Java Redis client, repackaged as a Bukkit\/Spigot\/Paper plugin and a Fabric\/Forge\/NeoForge mod.<\/p>\n
The mod does nothing on its own \u2014 it ships Jedis (and its runtime dependencies) onto the server’s classpath so other plugins\/mods can use it without each bundling their own copy.<\/p>\n
## What’s in the jar<\/p>\n
Jedis plus the four runtime deps it needs:<\/p>\n
– `redis.clients:jedis:5.2.0` \u2014 the client itself
\n– `org.apache.commons:commons-pool2` \u2014 connection pool (Jedis uses this for `JedisPool`)
\n– `com.google.code.gson:gson` \u2014 JSON serialization
\n– `org.json:json` \u2014 JSON parsing
\n– `org.slf4j:slf4j-api` \u2014 logging facade<\/p>\n
slf4j-api is shaded into this jar because Spigot 1.8 doesn’t ship it on the classpath. On platforms that already have slf4j (modern Paper, Fabric, NeoForge), the duplicate is harmless \u2014 slf4j-api is interface-only, no binding clash.<\/p>\n
Loader stubs for Spigot, Forge 1.12, Forge 1.13\u20131.16, Forge 1.17\u20131.20, NeoForge 1.21+, and Fabric. No relocation \u2014 `redis.clients.jedis.*`, `org.apache.commons.pool2.*`, etc. stay at canonical paths.<\/p>\n
## Compatibility<\/p>\n
| Loader | MC versions | Notes |
\n|—|—|—|
\n| Bukkit \/ Spigot \/ Paper \/ Folia \/ Purpur | 1.8 \u2192 current | drop into `plugins\/` |
\n| Fabric | 1.16.1 \u2192 current | needs Fabric Loader 0.14+ |
\n| Forge | 1.12 \u2192 1.20 | universal jar, no Mixins |
\n| NeoForge | 1.21 \u2192 current | drop into `mods\/` |<\/p>\n
Java 8+ required (Jedis 5.x baseline).<\/p>\n
## Using it from a plugin or mod<\/p>\n
“`kotlin
\ncompileOnly(“redis.clients:jedis:5.2.0”)
\n“`<\/p>\n
Probe at startup:<\/p>\n
“`java
\ntry {
\n Class.forName(“redis.clients.jedis.Jedis”);
\n} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
\n getLogger().warning(“Redis backend disabled \u2014 install minecraft-jedis”);
\n return;
\n}
\ntry (JedisPool pool = new JedisPool(host, port);
\n Jedis jedis = pool.getResource()) {
\n jedis.set(“hello”, “world”);
\n}
\n“`<\/p>\n
On Paper 1.17+ add `softdepend: [minecraft-jedis]` to your `plugin.yml`. Fabric and NeoForge don’t need anything similar.<\/p>\n
For Redis 6+ ACL auth pass `user` and `password`; for older Redis just `password`. TLS is on `JedisClientConfig` if you need it (not wired into the basic `JedisPool` constructor).<\/p>\n
## Versioning<\/p>\n
The jar version tracks Jedis one-to-one. `5.2.0+2026-04-25` ships Jedis 5.2.0 plus current commons-pool2\/gson\/json\/slf4j-api at the time of build. Auto-bump runs daily \u2014 when Jedis releases, the dep tree moves with it.<\/p>\n
