Cursor Pagination with RedisJSON - redis

Question

I am using Redis to store JSON data with a model that has Id and Name fields. My goal is to implement cursor pagination over this data using the Name as the cursor. I realize this isn't unique and I'll need to do some additional work to resolve the issues presented by that using that particular field as the cursor. However I am struggling to find a way to even begin to implement a basic cursor pagination with Redis commands. Redis has options for various string operations using the "Search" module but these are limited to search within a given string, nothing with comparisons. Am I barking up the wrong tree here and cursor pagination is not possible? Or is there something fundamental I am missing in my design?

Answer 1

Redis has options for various string operations using the "Search" module but these are limited to search within a given string, nothing with comparisons.
Can you please give an example for a required comparison not within a given string?
The Search query can do some comparisons.
For Cursor, FT.CURSOR can be used, for example:
127.0.0.1:6379> JSON.SET key1 $ '{"Id": 100, "Name": "foo", "data": "val1"}'
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> JSON.SET key2 $ '{"Id": 200, "Name": "bar", "data": "val2"}'
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> JSON.SET key3 $ '{"Id": 300, "Name": "foo", "data": "val3"}'
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.CREATE idx ON JSON SCHEMA '$.Id' as id NUMERIC '$.Name' as name TAG
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.AGGREGATE idx '#name:{foo}' LOAD 2 #id #name WITHCURSOR COUNT 1
1) 1) (integer) 1
2) 1) "id"
2) "300"
3) "name"
4) "foo"
2) (integer) 17284697
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.CURSOR READ idx 17284697 COUNT 1
1) 1) (integer) 1
2) 1) "id"
2) "100"
3) "name"
4) "foo"
2) (integer) 17284697
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.CURSOR READ idx 17284697 COUNT 1
1) 1) (integer) 0
2) (integer) 0
127.0.0.1:6379>
