title: use hiredis for node_redis
body: <p>I am using node_redis from <a href="https://github.com/mranney/node_redis" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/mranney/node_redis</a></p>
  
  <p>It says</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Pieter Noordhuis has provided a binding to the official hiredis C
    library, which is non-blocking and fast. To use hiredis, do:</p>
    
    <p>npm install hiredis redis</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I follow the instruction and compile hiredis, but I found that the hiredis.node is located in <code>/node_modules/hiredis/build/Release/hiredis.node</code>.</p>
  
  <p>But node_redis is located at <code>/node_modules/redis</code></p>
  
  <p>I am afraid node_redis can find the hiredis.node C library.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Question</strong>:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>How can I determine if node_redis is using hiredis as parser?</li>
  <li>Should I move <strong>hiredis.node</strong> to <code>/node_modules/redis</code> directory?</li>
  <li>Should I <code>yum install hiredis</code>? I am not sure if hiredis.node uses hiredis static library or dynamic library. </li>
  </ol>
