+
+A redis DB can be connected by an URL, in :py:obj:`searx.redisdb` you
+will find a description to test your redis connection in SearXNG. When using
+sockets, don't forget to check the access rights on the socket::
+
+ ls -la /usr/local/searxng-redis/run/redis.sock
+ srwxrwx--- 1 searxng-redis searxng-redis ... /usr/local/searxng-redis/run/redis.sock
+
+In this example read/write access is given to the *searxng-redis* group. To get
+access rights to redis instance (the socket), your SearXNG (or even your
+developer) account needs to be added to the *searxng-redis* group.
+
+``url`` : ``$SEARXNG_REDIS_URL``
+ URL to connect redis database, see `Redis.from_url(url)`_ & :ref:`redis db`::
+
+ redis://[[username]:[password]]@localhost:6379/0
+ rediss://[[username]:[password]]@localhost:6379/0
+ unix://[[username]:[password]]@/path/to/socket.sock?db=0

+Redis Developer Notes
+=====================
+
+To set up a local redis instance, first set the socket path of the Redis DB
+in your YAML setting:
+
+.. code:: yaml
+
+ redis:
+ url: unix:///usr/local/searxng-redis/run/redis.sock?db=0
+
+Then use the following commands to install the redis instance (:ref:`manage
+redis.help`):
+
+.. code:: sh
+
+ $ ./manage redis.build
+ $ sudo -H ./manage redis.install
+ $ sudo -H ./manage redis.addgrp "${USER}"
+ # don't forget to logout & login to get member of group
