The `path` should be the absolute path of the library, including the full filename.\n\nYou can use the optional `CONFIG` argument to provide the module with configuration directives.\nAny additional arguments that follow the `ARGS` keyword are passed unmodified to the module.\n\n**Note**: modules can also be loaded at server startup with `loadmodule`\nconfiguration directive in `redis.conf`."
