# Azure.ResourceManager.Redis (.NET)

Management plane SDK for provisioning and managing Azure Cache for Redis resources via Azure Resource Manager.

> **⚠️ Management vs Data Plane**
> - **This SDK (Azure.ResourceManager.Redis)**: Create caches, configure firewall rules, manage access keys, set up geo-replication
> - **Data Plane SDK (StackExchange.Redis)**: Get/set keys, pub/sub, streams, Lua scripts

## Installation

```bash
dotnet add package Azure.ResourceManager.Redis
dotnet add package Azure.Identity
```

**Current Version**: 1.5.1 (Stable)  
**API Version**: 2024-11-01  
**Target Frameworks**: .NET 8.0, .NET Standard 2.0

## Environment Variables

```bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id>
# For service principal auth (optional)
AZURE_TENANT_ID=<tenant-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<client-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<client-secret>
```

## Authentication

```csharp
using Azure.Identity;
using Azure.ResourceManager;
using Azure.ResourceManager.Redis;

// Always use DefaultAzureCredential
var credential = new DefaultAzureCredential();
var armClient = new ArmClient(credential);

// Get subscription
var subscriptionId = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID");
var subscription = armClient.GetSubscriptionResource(
    new ResourceIdentifier($"/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}"));
```

## Resource Hierarchy

```
ArmClient
└── SubscriptionResource
    └── ResourceGroupResource
        └── RedisResource
            ├── RedisFirewallRuleResource
            ├── RedisPatchScheduleResource
            ├── RedisLinkedServerWithPropertyResource
            ├── RedisPrivateEndpointConnectionResource
            └── RedisCacheAccessPolicyResource
```

## Core Workflows

### 1. Create Redis Cache

```csharp
using Azure.ResourceManager.Redis;
using Azure.ResourceManager.Redis.Models;

// Get resource group
var resourceGroup = await subscription
    .GetResourceGroupAsync("my-resource-group");

// Define cache configuration
var cacheData = new RedisCreateOrUpdateContent(
    location: AzureLocation.EastUS,
    sku: new RedisSku(RedisSkuName.Standard, RedisSkuFamily.BasicOrStandard, 1))
{
    EnableNonSslPort = false,
    MinimumTlsVersion = RedisTlsVersion.Tls1_2,
    RedisConfiguration = new RedisCommonConfiguration
    {
        MaxMemoryPolicy = "volatile-lru"
    },
    Tags =
    {
        ["environment"] = "production"
    }
};

// Create cache (long-running operation)
var cacheCollection = resourceGroup.Value.GetAllRedis();
var operation = await cacheCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
    WaitUntil.Completed,
    "my-redis-cache",
    cacheData);

RedisResource cache = operation.Value;
Console.WriteLine($"Cache created: {cache.Data.HostName}");
```

### 2. Get Redis Cache

```csharp
// Get existing cache
var cache = await resourceGroup.Value
    .GetRedisAsync("my-redis-cache");

Console.WriteLine($"Host: {cache.Value.Data.HostName}");
Console.WriteLine($"Port: {cache.Value.Data.Port}");
Console.WriteLine($"SSL Port: {cache.Value.Data.SslPort}");
Console.WriteLine($"Provisioning State: {cache.Value.Data.ProvisioningState}");
```

### 3. Update Redis Cache

```csharp
var patchData = new RedisPatch
{
    Sku = new RedisSku(RedisSkuName.Standard, RedisSkuFamily.BasicOrStandard, 2),
    RedisConfiguration = new RedisCommonConfiguration
    {
        MaxMemoryPolicy = "allkeys-lru"
    }
};

var updateOperation = await cache.Value.UpdateAsync(
    WaitUntil.Completed,
    patchData);
```

### 4. Delete Redis Cache

```csharp
await cache.Value.DeleteAsync(WaitUntil.Completed);
```

### 5. Get Access Keys

```csharp
var keys = await cache.Value.GetKeysAsync();
Console.WriteLine($"Primary Key: {keys.Value.PrimaryKey}");
Console.WriteLine($"Secondary Key: {keys.Value.SecondaryKey}");
```

### 6. Regenerate Access Keys

```csharp
var regenerateContent = new RedisRegenerateKeyContent(RedisRegenerateKeyType.Primary);
var newKeys = await cache.Value.RegenerateKeyAsync(regenerateContent);
Console.WriteLine($"New Primary Key: {newKeys.Value.PrimaryKey}");
```

### 7. Manage Firewall Rules

```csharp
// Create firewall rule
var firewallData = new RedisFirewallRuleData(
    startIP: System.Net.IPAddress.Parse("10.0.0.1"),
    endIP: System.Net.IPAddress.Parse("10.0.0.255"));

var firewallCollection = cache.Value.GetRedisFirewallRules();
var firewallOperation = await firewallCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
    WaitUntil.Completed,
    "allow-internal-network",
    firewallData);

// List all firewall rules
await foreach (var rule in firewallCollection.GetAllAsync())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Rule: {rule.Data.Name} ({rule.Data.StartIP} - {rule.Data.EndIP})");
}

// Delete firewall rule
var ruleToDelete = await firewallCollection.GetAsync("allow-internal-network");
await ruleToDelete.Value.DeleteAsync(WaitUntil.Completed);
```

### 8. Configure Patch Schedule (Premium SKU)

```csharp
// Patch schedules require Premium SKU
var scheduleData = new RedisPatchScheduleData(
    new[]
    {
        new RedisPatchScheduleSetting(RedisDayOfWeek.Saturday, 2) // 2 AM Saturday
        {
            MaintenanceWindow = TimeSpan.FromHours(5)
        },
        new RedisPatchScheduleSetting(RedisDayOfWeek.Sunday, 2) // 2 AM Sunday
        {
            MaintenanceWindow = TimeSpan.FromHours(5)
        }
    });

var scheduleCollection = cache.Value.GetRedisPatchSchedules();
await scheduleCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
    WaitUntil.Completed,
    RedisPatchScheduleDefaultName.Default,
    scheduleData);
```

### 9. Import/Export Data (Premium SKU)

```csharp
// Import data from blob storage
var importContent = new ImportRdbContent(
    files: new[] { "https://mystorageaccount.blob.core.windows.net/container/dump.rdb" },
    format: "RDB");

await cache.Value.ImportDataAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, importContent);

// Export data to blob storage
var exportContent = new ExportRdbContent(
    prefix: "backup",
    container: "https://mystorageaccount.blob.core.windows.net/container?sastoken",
    format: "RDB");

await cache.Value.ExportDataAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, exportContent);
```

### 10. Force Reboot

```csharp
var rebootContent = new RedisRebootContent
{
    RebootType = RedisRebootType.AllNodes,
    ShardId = 0 // For clustered caches
};

await cache.Value.ForceRebootAsync(rebootContent);
```

## SKU Reference

## Best Practices

1. **Use `WaitUntil.Completed`** for operations that must finish before proceeding
2. **Use `WaitUntil.Started`** when you want to poll manually or run operations in parallel
3. **Always use `DefaultAzureCredential`** — never hardcode keys
4. **Handle `RequestFailedExce
