Go + Redis - Tutorial Get Started doesn't work

Hi,

I have made several redis and go tutorial sites. Most of the pages don't work. Here's a very simple one that doesn't work.

https://developer.redis.com/develop/golang/

And here is the error message.

# command-line-arguments
./main.go:17:29: too many arguments in call to client.cmdable.Ping
    have (context.Context)
    want ()

How to make the tutorial work?

What version of go-redis are you using? In version 8 it should work. github.com/go-redis/redis/v8.

See this example code on how to use it: https://github.com/go-redis/redis/blob/master/example_test.go

In v1 of go-redis the function signature does not include context.Context. See the code. You've most likely imported go redis without the v8 suffix, thus importing go-redis v1. (in go the v1 version of a library does not require the v... suffix).
