RDB-Parser enables users to parse a RDB file(Redis Snapshot file) into XML-formatted file.

use lua to parse rdb file to user's format data, like aof file, json etc.

$ cd rdbtools/src
$ make
$ ./rdbtools -f ../tests/dump2.8.rdb -s ../scripts/example.lua

USAGE: ./rdbtools [-f file] -V -h
    -V --version
    -h --help show usage
    -f --file specify which rdb file would be parsed.
    -s --file specify which lua script, default is ../scripts/example.lua

If you want to handle key-value in rdb file, you can use -s your_script.lua, and lua function handle will be callbacked.

Example can be found in scripts/example.lua, and it just print the key-value.

cat scripts/json_exapmle.lua

local cjson = require "cjson"

function handle(item)
     print(cjson.encode(item))
end
