Redis install script for automatic deployments

If you need to install Redis within your automatic deployment script, here's the bash script I've created. Remember to run it as a superuser!

#!/bin/bash
# From here: http://www.codingsteps.com/install-redis-2-6-on-amazon-ec2-linux-ami-or-centos/
# Based on: https://github.com/saxenap/install-redis-amazon-linux-centos
# Thanks to https://raw.github.com/gist/2776679/b4f5f5ff85bddfa9e07664de4e8ccf0e115e7b83/install-redis.sh
# Uses redis-server init script from https://raw.github.com/saxenap/install-redis-amazon-linux-centos/master/redis-server
###############################################
# To use: 
## wget https://raw.github.com/jorgerc/install-redis-amazon-linux-centos/master/redis-install-script.sh
## chmod 777 redis-install-script.sh
## ./redis-install-script.sh
###############################################
# Set up SO:

yum -y update
ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC /etc/localtime
yum -y install gcc gcc-c++ make

make install
####
# Set up Redis

rm -rf /etc/redis /var/lib/redis
mkdir /etc/redis /var/lib/redis
cp src/redis-server src/redis-cli /usr/local/bin
cp redis.conf /etc/redis
sed -e "s/^daemonize no$/daemonize yes/" -e "s/^# bind 127.0.0.1$/bind 127.0.0.1/" -e "s/^dir \.\//dir \/var\/lib\/redis\//" -e "s/^loglevel verbose$/loglevel notice/" -e "s/^logfile stdout$/logfile \/var\/log\/redis.log/" redis.conf > /etc/redis/redis.conf
####
# Redis correctly installed.
# Download script for running Redis
####
wget -q https://raw.github.com/saxenap/install-redis-amazon-linux-centos/master/redis-server
mv redis-server /etc/init.d
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/redis-server
chkconfig --add redis-server
chkconfig --level 345 redis-server on
####
# To start Redis just uncomment this line

If you want avoid manual compilations of Redis 2.6 on CentOS, you can give a try to <a href="http://powerstack.org">PowerStack</a> repository, which provides RPMs for latest versions of LAMP stack (Apache 2.4, MySQL 5.6, PHP 5.4) and other packages focused on server environments: node.js, memcached, HAproxy, etc. :-)
