How to install and use Predis
This library can be found on Packagist for an easier management of projects dependencies using Composer. Compressed archives of each release are available on GitHub.
Loading the library
Predis relies on the autoloading features of PHP to load its files when needed and complies with the PSR-4 standard. Autoloading is handled automatically when dependencies are managed through Composer, but it is also possible to leverage its own autoloader in projects or scripts lacking any autoload facility:
