Redis client connects to the redis remote server but can't read or write on it
I solved it first by adding
client.on("error", function (err) { console.log("Error " + err);});
so i could see what was wrong (indeed my mistake was to think that the redisClient belongs to the connect-redis module so i didn't see all these available options on the node_redis module..) and that added code showed me that the problem was like in this thread and thanks to this answer and also, i saw that it was better to move the get methode inside the set's callback as the remote server would answer asynchronuesly..
