Use the wget command to download the latest stable version of the redis tarball.
wget http://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz
There should now be a file named redis-stable.tar.gz in your present working directory. Use the tar command to extract the redis tarball.
tar xzpf redis-stable.tar.gz
There should now be a redis-stable directory in your present working directory. You can now remove the redis-stable.tar.gz file.
rm redis-stable.tar.gz
Move into the redis-stable directory.
cd redis-stable
Use the make command to install the redis-cli. BUILD_TLS=yes is included so that the --tls flag can be used with the redis-cli to connect to a Redis system that is configured with SSL.
make BUILD_TLS=yes
If the install is successful, the redis-cli --version command should return the version of the redis CLI you installled.
~]$ redis-stable/src/redis-cli --version
redis-cli 7.2.4
