Description:

When trying to use job Batches to dispatch a series of jobs to a redis cluster queue, an 500 exception is thrown.

Call to undefined method RedisCluster::pipeline() {"userId":2,"exception":"[object] (Error(code: 0): Call to undefined method RedisCluster::pipeline() at /project/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Redis/Connections/PhpRedisConnection.php:402

Have you tried configuring "predis/predis" instead of "phpredis/phpredis"?

I triend to switch to predis, but I got stuck in this issue: predis/predis#695 and I gave up on that approach.

My suggestion is that Laravel overrides the pipeline-function in PhpRedisClusterConnection.php and just execute the command instead of executing it via the pipeline. However my knowledge of the redis classes are not perfect, so I am not sure how it should be implemented.

This is a feature request so I'm moving this to discussions.

phpredis is the way to go i think, predis is not heavily maintained, there is around 3 to 5 commits a year, so it's not a good idea to switch to predis.

@4ice If it's still makes sense for you, I will recommend you switch to Predis. Right now Predis supports by Redis organisation and we contribute a lot in maintaining and extending Predis capabilities.

You'll find pipelining with clusters and a lot of other features, you might be interested in
