redis-server: Start Redis server, using the specified port, as a background process.

redis-server

$ redis-server --port ${port} --daemonize yes

try on your machine

This command is used to start a Redis server process in the background with a specified port number.

Here is the break down of each part of the command:

redis-server is the executable command that starts the Redis server process.
--port ${port} is an argument passed to the redis-server command. ${port} is a placeholder for the specific port number you want to use. You need to replace ${port} with the actual port number you want to assign to the Redis server. This option specifies the port on which the Redis server will listen for incoming connections.
--daemonize yes is another argument passed to the redis-server command. This option tells the Redis server to run in the background as a daemon process. By running in the background, the server does not require an active terminal session to keep it running.

To use this command, you would typically replace ${port} with a number, for example:

redis-server --port 6379 --daemonize yes

This would start the Redis server on port 6379 and run it as a background process.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
