I want to using Redis in laravel 5.2 however, I'm getting error such a Class 'Predis\Client' not found, How I can solve it.

Answer

First download the REDIS to your system (if you haven't already installed it).
Go to the folder where you have downloaded the redis and run this command:
```
cd your-redis-folder-name
make
```
Go to your project directory and install composer:

composer require predis/predis
Go to your .env file and add Queue driver:
```
QUEUE_DRIVER=redis
```
use Mail::queue() to send mail via queue. See Doc.
And in your terminal run:
```
php artisan queue:listen 
```
to send.
