Note
Low Risk
Low-risk header-only API surface change; main concern is ABI/compatibility for modules running against older Redis versions where
RedisModule_GetContextUsermay be unavailable.Overview
Adds a new module API entrypoint,
RedisModule_GetContextUser, to retrieve theRedisModuleUserpreviously set on a context viaRedisModule_SetContextUser.Updates
RedisModule_Initto resolve and expose this function viaREDISMODULE_GET_API(GetContextUser)so modules can read the context user (e.g., for ACL-awareRM_Callflows).Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 3064ed1. This will update automatically on new commits. Configure here.
