# `createClient` configuration
| Property | Default | Description |
|--------------------------|------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| url | | `redis[s]://[[username][:password]@][host][:port][/db-number]` (see [`redis`](https://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes/prov/redis) and [`rediss`](https://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes/prov/rediss) IANA registration for more details) |
| socket | | Socket connection properties. Unlisted [`net.connect`](https://nodejs.org/api/net.html#socketconnectoptions-connectlistener) properties (and [`tls.connect`](https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tlsconnectoptions-callback)) are also supported |
| socket.port | `6379` | Redis server port |
| socket.host | `'localhost'` | Redis server hostname |
| socket.family | `0` | IP Stack version (one of `4 \| 6 \| 0`) |
| socket.path | | Path to the UNIX Socket |
| socket.connectTimeout | `5000` | Connection Timeout (in milliseconds) |
| socket.noDelay | `true` | Toggle [`Nagle's algorithm`](https://nodejs.org/api/net.html#net_socket_setnodelay_nodelay) |
| socket.keepAlive | `5000` | Toggle [`keep-alive`](https://nodejs.org/api/net.html#net_socket_setkeepalive_enable_initialdelay) functionality |
| socket.tls | | See explanation and examples [below](#TLS) |
| socket.reconnectStrategy | `retries => Math.min(retries * 50, 500)` | A function containing the [Reconnect Strategy](#reconnect-strategy) logic |
| username | | ACL username ([see ACL guide](https://redis.io/topics/acl)) |
| password | | ACL password or the old "--requirepass" password |
| name | | Connection name ([see `CLIENT SETNAME`](https://redis.io/commands/client-setname)) |
| database | | Redis database number (see [`SELECT`](https://redis.io/commands/select) command) |
| modules | | Included [Redis Modules](../README.md#packages) |
| scripts | | Script definitions (see [Lua Scripts](../README.md#lua-scripts)) |
| functions | | Function definitions (see [Functions](../README.md#functions)) |
| commandsQueueMaxLength | | Maximum length of the client's internal command queue |
| disableOfflineQueue | `false` | Disables offline queuing, see [FAQ](./FAQ.md#what-happens-when-the-network-goes-down) |
| readonly | `false` | Connect in [`READONLY`](https://redis.io/commands/readonly) mode |
| legacyMode | `false` | Maintain some backwards compatibility (see the [Migration Guide](./v3-to-v4.md)) |
| isolationPoolOptions | | See the [Isolated Execution Guide](./isolated-execution.md) |
| pingInterval | | Send `PING` command at interval (in ms). Useful with "[Azure Cache for Redis](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-cache-for-redis/cache-best-practices-connection#idle-timeout)" |
## Reconnect Strategy
You can implement a custom reconnect strategy as a function:
- Receives the number of retries attempted so far.
- Returns `number | Error`:
- `number`: wait time in milliseconds prior to attempting a reconnect.
- `Error`: closes the client and flushes internal command queues.
## TLS
To enable TLS, set `socket.tls` to `true`. Below are some basic examples.
> For configuration options see [tls.connect](https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tlsconnectoptions-callback) and [tls.createSecureContext](https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tlscreatesecurecontextoptions), as those are the underlying functions used by this library.
### Create a SSL client
```typescript
createClient({
socket: {
tls: true,
ca: '...',
cert: '...'
}
});
```
### Create a SSL client using a self-signed certificate
```typescript
createClient({
socket: {
tls: true,
rejectUnauthorized: false,
cert: '...'
}
});
```
