Go Redis Inventory

A Go library for managing inventory using Redis.

Features

• Get and update inventory quantities
• Reserve inventory with atomic operations using Lua scripts
• Temporary cart-based reservations with expiration to prevent overselling
• Optimized available inventory calculation using maintained reservation totals
• Listen to inventory changes via Redis pub/sub

Installation

go get github.com/matst80/go-redis-inventory

Usage

Import the package:

import "git.k6n.net/go-redis-inventory/pkg/inventory"

Create a Redis client and initialize the service:

client := redis.NewClient(&redis.Options{
    Addr: "localhost:6379",
})
service, err := inventory.NewRedisInventoryService(client)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

For cart reservations:

cartService, err := inventory.NewRedisCartReservationService(client)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// Reserve items for a cart with 10-minute TTL
err = cartService.ReserveForCart(ctx, inventory.CartReserveRequest{
    InventoryReference: &inventory.InventoryReference{SKU: "item1", LocationID: "warehouse1"},
    CartID: "cart123",
    Quantity: 2,
    TTL: 10 * time.Minute,
})

// Get available inventory (accounting for reservations)
available, err := cartService.GetAvailableInventory(ctx, "item1", "warehouse1")

// Get reservation status and remaining time
active, remaining, err := cartService.GetReservationStatus(ctx, "item1", "warehouse1", "cart123")
if active {
    fmt.Printf("Reservation active, %v remaining\n", remaining)
}
