nestjs-ioredis | IORedis module for Nest | Web Framework library

After some digging in the TypeORM code base I came across two solutions (wiil one the other is a bit hacky and my case issues)

According to the doc, you can implement your own cache handler see: https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/blob/master/docs/caching.md.

This is the better but harder solution due to the Interface that need to be implemented https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/blob/master/src/cache/QueryResultCache.ts

In addition, you will need you register the TypeOrmModule with forRootAsync to first be able to connect to Redis.

According to the code base, you should be able to access the Redise client (connection) that TypeORM is creating.

On the type ORM connection there is a member called connection.queryResultCache for managing the cache. But furthermore there is a member name client on the queryResultCache (connection.queryResultCache.client)
