Add new functions to Redis Handler

What is the proper way to add thoses function to the Redis Handler whithout writing it in the System\Cache\Handlers\RedisHandler.php file ?

PHP Code:

    public function getKeys( string $keys = "*" )
    {
        return $this->redis->keys($keys);
    }

    //--------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    public function delWildcard( string $keys )
    {
        if (!$keys || $keys === "*") return false;
        
        $this->redis->del(
            $this->redis->keys($keys)
        );
    } 


I read this from the Documentation here https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...asses.html but i have to admit that i don't fully understand how it work.

Can anyone describe me how i can do please ?

Rule #1: don't mess with framework files!
I had to work around an issue in Redis handler by creating my own RedisHandler in app/Libraries:

PHP Code:

<?php


namespace App\Libraries;


class FixedRedisHandler extends \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\RedisHandler
{
// code fixing save() function in 4.0.4
} 


In app/Config/Cache.php I added this to the array of validHandlers:

PHP Code:

    public $validHandlers = [
        'dummy' => \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\DummyHandler::class,
        'file' => \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\FileHandler::class,
        'memcached' => \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\MemcachedHandler::class,
        'predis' => \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\PredisHandler::class,
        'redis' => \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\RedisHandler::class,
        'fixedredis' => FixedRedisHandler::class,
        'wincache' => \CodeIgniter\Cache\Handlers\WincacheHandler::class,
    ]; 


And finally set the handler in app/Config/Cache.php to "fixedredis".
Hope this helps!
