Snippet to connect to your REDIS TO GO instance

common.js

var redis = require('redis');

var createRedisClient = function() {
    var db = redis.createClient(INSERT_PORT, HOST); 
    var dbAuth=function() { db.auth('PASSWORD');};
    db.addListener('connected',dbAuth);
    db.addListener('reconnected',dbAuth);
    dbAuth();
    return db;
};
exports.redis = createRedisClient();

Then

In app.js

var redis = require('common').redis;
redis.set('KEY', 'YOUR_AWESOME_VALUE', function(err, res){ 
    console.log(res)  // OK
});
redis.get('KEY', function(err, res){ 
    console.log(res)  // YOUR_AWESOME_VALUE
});
