Here are the processes to backup and restore data from and to the Redis server. Though the restore and back is not a frequently used process, but this becomes crucial in certain use cases. Also moving data from one Redis server to another is a very handy process when we need that. Here we have discussed 2 processes for the backup and restoration of the Redis server.
In this article, we have discussed all about settings and checking configurations of Redis. We have finally discussed important Redis configurations, in detail.
BLPOP extracts/pops an item from the Left/HEAD of the first non-empty list. This is a blocking operation, so if no item is available in the provided list, this command will wait.
Trim a Redis list, and remove items from the list from one or both end(s). We provide a starting and ending index for the trim and the items outside that window are removed. If all items are removed while trimming, then the list is deleted. Indexes are Zero(0) based.
“use strict” directive enables a strict operating context/mode for the code. This helps us to identify potential exceptions and makes debugging easier. In strict mode, we are notified about code that would trigger some weird behavior or fail silently. To enable the strict mode for the whole script, add the string “use strict” at the top of the script.
Remove items from a list. We can provide a
Change/replace value at a specific index of a list. For the command to work there should be an existing list, with some items and we can only change items that are already set(have an index). Both positive and negative indexes will work for this command. Index is zero(0) based. So the first item is considered at index Zero(0).
LPOP removes the first element from the Left/HEAD of the list and then returns it. Count is an optional argument provided for the command, this is used to pop multiple items. If the list has no element left after executing the LPOP command, then the list is deleted after the item(s) popped.
LMPOP command pops one or more items from list(s). This operation can be performed on multiple lists. In case of multiple lists, the pop operation will be performed on the first non-empty list. This command is useful when we have multiple lists serving similar purposes, and we want to pop items from any of the lists if there are items in it.
Get the index of item(s) in the list, which matches the provided item. Operation can be performed starting from the HEAD or from the TAIL. This command is useful for checking the position/index of an item in the list, and also useful for checking the existence of an item in the list. Index of the list item is Zero based. The first item is at index Zero(0). If the command does not return (nil). Instead, return some index value (can be zero) which means the item exists in the list.
