Nginx use Redis for caching

Hi All,
I am trying to figure out how to use redis for caching in nginx. I
found out how to do it in Wordpress but for a local php based site
that was set up, I am not seeing how to do it. Shouldn't I be able to
pass settings in nginx.conf for the Redis url and password? Can anyone
point me in the right direction please? Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

I believe that all necessary information is available in README,
https://github.com/osokin/ngx_http_redis/blob/master/README.

Please go ahead and take a look on the Example 3, it
describes how to:
o) create a gzipped content;
o) push the gzipped content to a redis server;
o) configure nginx to get a content from the redis server.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.
