Please walk through the documentation of this module, especially the
configuraton samples there. Let us know if you have any concrete
questions:
https://github.com/openresty/redis2-nginx-module#readme
BTW, it's recommended to use the lua-resty-redis library with the
ngx_lua module nowadays BTW:

The implementation details are not different from the standard nginx
upstream modules like ngx_memcached, ngx_proxy, and ngx_fastcgi.
If you're interested in the implementation details, try reading the
code. Also, ensure you have the Evan Miller's nginx module development
guide.
