NOW:

from gluon.contrib.redis_cache import RedisCache
rconn = RConn()
# or RConn(host='localhost', port=6379,
# db=0, password=None, socket_timeout=None,
# socket_connect_timeout=None, .....)
# exactly as a redis.StrictRedis instance
cache.redis = RedisCache(redis_conn=rconn, debug=True)
BEFORE:
from gluon.contrib.redis_session import RedisSession
sessiondb = RedisSession('localhost:6379',db=0, session_expiry=False)
session.connect(request, response, db = sessiondb)
NOW:
from gluon.contrib.redis_utils import RConn
from gluon.contrib.redis_session import RedisSession
rconn = RConn()
sessiondb = RedisSession(redis_conn=rconn, session_expiry=False)
session.connect(request, response, db = sessiondb)
Many thanks to Richard and Simone for their work and dedication.
