Sample Dataset

In the previous steps you used only a few movies, let's now import:

  • More movies to discover more queries.
  • Theaters to discover the geospatial capabilities.
  • Users to do some aggregations.

Dataset Description

Movies

The file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RediSearch/redisearch-getting-started/master/sample-app/redisearch-docker/dataset/import_movies.redis is a script that creates 922 Hashes.

The movie hashes contain the following fields.

  • movie:id : The unique ID of the movie, internal to this database (used as the key of the hash)
  • title : The title of the movie.
  • plot : A summary of the movie.
  • genre : The genre of the movie, for now a movie will only have a single genre.
  • release_year : The year the movie was released as a numerical value.
  • rating : A numeric value representing the public's rating for this movie.
  • votes : Number of votes.
  • poster : Link to the movie poster.
  • imdb_id : id of the movie in the IMDB database.

Theaters

The file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RediSearch/redisearch-getting-started/master/sample-app/redisearch-docker/dataset/import_theaters.redis is a script that creates 117 Hashes (used for Geospatial queries). This dataset is a list of New York Theaters, and not movie theaters, but it is not that critical for this project ;).

The theater hashes contain the following fields.

  • theater:id : The unique ID of the theater, internal to this database (used as the key of the hash)
  • name : The name of the theater
  • address : The street address
  • city : The city, in this sample dataset all the theaters are in New York
  • zip : The zip code
  • phone : The phone number
  • url : The URL of the theater
  • location : Contains the longitude,latitude used to create the Geo-indexed field

Users

The file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RediSearch/redisearch-getting-started/master/sample-app/redisearch-docker/dataset/import_users.redis is a script that creates 5996 Hashes.

The user hashes contain the following fields.

  • user:id : The unique ID of the user.
  • first_name : The first name of the user.
  • last_name : The last name of the user.
  • email : The email of the user.
  • gender : The gender of the user (female/male).

  • country_code : The country code of the user.
  • city : The city of the user.
  • longitude : The longitude of the user.
  • latitude : The latitude of the user.
  • last_login : The last login time for the user, as EPOC time.
  • ip_address : The IP address of the user.

Importing the Movies, Theaters and Users

Before importing the data, flush the database:

> FLUSHALL

The easiest way to import the file is to use the redis-cli, using the following terminal command:

$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RediSearch/redisearch-getting-started/master/sample-app/redisearch-docker/dataset/import_movies.redis | redis-cli -h localhost -p 6379 --pipe

$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RediSearch/redisearch-getting-started/master/sample-app/redisearch-docker/dataset/import_theaters.redis | redis-cli -h localhost -p 6379 --pipe


$ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RediSearch/redisearch-getting-started/master/sample-app/redisearch-docker/dataset/import_users.redis | redis-cli -h localhost -p 6379 --pipe

Using Redis Insight or the redis-cli you can look at the dataset:

> HMGET "movie:343" title release_year genre

1) "Spider-Man"
2) "2002"
3) "Action"


> HMGET "theater:20" name location
1) "Broadway Theatre"
2) "-73.98335054631019,40.763270202723625"



> HMGET "user:343" first_name last_name last_login
1) "Umeko"
2) "Castagno"
3) "1574769122"

You can also use the DBSIZE command to see how many keys you have in your database.


Create Indexes

Create the idx:movie index:

> FT.CREATE idx:movie ON hash PREFIX 1 "movie:" SCHEMA title TEXT SORTABLE plot TEXT WEIGHT 0.5 release_year NUMERIC SORTABLE rating NUMERIC SORTABLE votes NUMERIC SORTABLE genre TAG SORTABLE

"OK"

The movies have now been indexed, you can run the FT.INFO "idx:movie" command and look at the num_docs returned value. (should be 922).

Create the idx:theater index:

This index will mostly be used to show the geospatial capabilties of search in Redis Stack.

In the previous examples we have created indexes with 3 types:

  • Text
  • Numeric
  • Tag

You will now discover a new type of field: Geo.

The theater hashes contains a field location with the longitude and latitude, that will be used in the index as follows:

> FT.CREATE idx:theater ON hash PREFIX 1 "theater:" SCHEMA name TEXT SORTABLE location GEO

"OK"

The theaters have been indexed, you can run the FT.INFO "idx:theater" command and look at the num_docs returned value. (should be 117).

Create the idx:user index:

> FT.CREATE idx:user ON hash PREFIX 1 "user:" SCHEMA gender TAG country TAG SORTABLE last_login NUMERIC SORTABLE location GEO

"OK"
