Executable: target/release/rudist

Important: Keychain/Keyring Access

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Rudist uses the system keychain (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, or Linux Secret Service) to securely store Redis connection passwords.

First Launch

On first launch, your system will prompt you to enter your login password to allow Rudist to access the keychain. This is a one-time permission request.

  • macOS: You'll see a system dialog asking for your login password
  • Windows: You may see a UAC prompt or credential request
  • Linux: A keyring unlock dialog may appear

Why This Is Needed

  • Connection passwords are stored encrypted in the system keychain
  • This ensures your Redis credentials remain secure
  • Without this permission, Rudist cannot save or retrieve connection passwords

What If I Deny?

If you deny keychain access, you can still use Rudist, but: - Passwords won't be saved between sessions - You'll need to enter passwords manually each time you connect
