Redis Backpack

This page outlines how sasquatch backpack uses redis.

State Storage

Sasquatch-backpack uses Redis as a mechanism for storing state. In the current implementation, Redis is used to store item IDs as keys. In the Datasource configuration, use uses_redis = True to store the IDs of the itens sent to the Sasquatch API, as shown here. This way Sasquatch-backpack will remove items with duplicate IDs from subsequent POST requests.
