-# Example configuration of redis.chart.py
-# YAML format
+# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for redis
+#
+# This file is in YaML format. Generally the format is:
+#
+# name: value
+#
+# There are 2 sections:
+#  - global variables
+#  - one or more JOBS
+#
+# JOBS allow you to collect values from multiple sources.
+# Each source will have its own set of charts.
+#
+# JOB parameters have to be indented (using spaces only, example below).
 
-update_every: 1
-retries: 10
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Global Variables
+# These variables set the defaults for all JOBs, however each JOB
+# may define its own, overriding the defaults.
 
-socket:
+# update_every sets the default data collection frequency.
+# If unset, the python.d.plugin default is used.
+# update_every: 1
+
+# priority controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard.
+# Lower numbers move the charts towards the top of the page.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# priority: 60000
+
+# retries sets the number of retries to be made in case of failures.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# Attempts to restore the service are made once every update_every
+# and only if the module has collected values in the past.
+# retries: 5
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# JOBS (data collection sources)
+#
+# The default JOBS share the same *name*. JOBS with the same name
+# are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at
+# any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and
+# pick the one that works.
+#
+# Any number of jobs is supported.
+#
+# All python.d.plugin JOBS (for all its modules) support a set of
+# predefined parameters. These are:
+#
+# job_name:
+#     name: myname     # the JOB's name as it will appear at the
+#                      # dashboard (by default is the job_name)
+#                      # JOBs sharing a name are mutually exclusive
+#     update_every: 1  # the JOB's data collection frequency
+#     priority: 60000  # the JOB's order on the dashboard
+#     retries: 5       # the JOB's number of restoration attempts
+#
+# Additionally to the above, redis also supports the following:
+#
+#     socket: 'path/to/mysql.sock'
+#
+#  or
+#     host: 'IP or HOSTNAME' # the host to connect to
+#     port: PORT             # the port to connect to
+#
+#
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# AUTO-DETECTION JOBS
+# only one of them will run (they have the same name)
