## Configuration

The following configuration is a production-ready `.conf` file which:

1. Binds to 0.0.0.0
2. Disables `default` user
3. Forces use of a password
4. Prevents users from running configuration commands
5. Creates a app user named `user` with password `password` (**change this according to the comments in the file**)

```properties
# security configurations as documented at https://redis.io/topics/security
bind 0.0.0.0
rename-command CONFIG ""

# disable default user
requirepass password
user default off -@all

# setup app user
# to generate the password, run `printf -- 'password' | sha256sum | cut -f 1 -d ' '`
# the following password (after the '#' character) is the sha256 of "password" without the quotes
user user on ~* +ping +client +@read +@write +@set +@list #5e884898da28047151d0e56f8dc6292773603d0d6aabbdd62a11ef721d1542d8
