Copilot 1ac68f65bf Python: Fix RedisContextProvider for redisvl 0.14.0 by using AggregateHybridQuery (#3954)
* Initial plan

* Fix: Replace alpha with linear_alpha in HybridQuery for redisvl 0.14.0 compatibility

* Use AggregateHybridQuery instead of HybridQuery for backward compatibility

Replace HybridQuery with AggregateHybridQuery to preserve existing functionality that works with older Redis versions. The new HybridQuery in redisvl 0.14.0 requires Redis 8.4.0+ and uses a different API, while AggregateHybridQuery maintains compatibility with the original implementation.

* Fix test to use linear_alpha parameter matching _redis_search implementation

The test was passing alpha as a keyword argument to _redis_search(), but the
method uses linear_alpha to match the redisvl 0.14.0 AggregateHybridQuery API.

* Fix pyright error: use alpha parameter matching AggregateHybridQuery API

AggregateHybridQuery expects 'alpha', not 'linear_alpha'. Updated the
_redis_search method parameter and the test accordingly.

Get Started with Microsoft Agent Framework Redis

Please install this package via pip:

pip install agent-framework-redis --pre

Components

Memory Context Provider

The RedisProvider enables persistent context & memory capabilities for your agents, allowing them to remember user preferences and conversation context across sessions and threads.

Basic Usage Examples

Review the set of getting started examples for using the Redis context provider.

Redis Chat Message Store

The RedisChatMessageStore provides persistent conversation storage using Redis Lists, enabling chat history to survive application restarts and support distributed applications.

Key Features

  • Persistent Storage: Messages survive application restarts
  • Thread Isolation: Each conversation thread has its own Redis key
  • Message Limits: Configurable automatic trimming of old messages
  • Serialization Support: Full compatibility with Agent Framework thread serialization
  • Production Ready: Connection pooling, error handling, and performance optimized

Basic Usage Examples

See the complete Redis history provider examples including:

  • User session management
  • Conversation persistence across restarts
  • Session serialization and deserialization
  • Automatic message trimming
  • Error handling patterns

Installing and running Redis

You have 3 options to set-up Redis:

Option A: Local Redis with Docker

docker run --name redis -p 6379:6379 -d redis:8.0.3

Option B: Redis Cloud

Get a free db at https://redis.io/cloud/

Option C: Azure Managed Redis

Here's a quickstart guide to create Azure Managed Redis for as low as $12 monthly: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/redis/quickstart-create-managed-redis
