Viewing list saved into a redis hash - redis

I've saved a list into a hash but cannot figure out how to retrieve contents of the hash. Firstly, here is some code to create the list:
127.0.0.1:6379> LPUSH list1 'dc:39:79:ab:cd:ef'
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> LPUSH list1 '2014-07-21'
(integer) 2
127.0.0.1:6379> LPUSH list1 'Success'
(integer) 3
127.0.0.1:6379> LPUSH list1 'Miscellaneous notes about the install. Can be as long as you want'
(integer) 4
Now I create a hash and assign the value of one key to list1:
127.0.0.1:6379> hset hash 'RKT1234' list1
(integer) 1
How can I print the entire list saved inside hash['RKT1234'] ?
127.0.0.1:6379> hgetall hash
1) "RKT1234"
2) "list1"
127.0.0.1:6379> hvals hash
1) "list1"
thanks

It looks like you are attempting to store a list as a value in a hash. You are not doing what you think you are doing as Redis does not support nested data structures. In hset hash 'RKT1234' list1 you are not storing the list, just a string name: "list1".
In order to get the contents of list you need to first get the name of the list from the hash, then get the contents of the list in a second call.
So your sequence looks like this:
# returns "list1"
hvals hash
lrange list1 0 -1
# returns the contents of list1

Redis - Sort and filter hash store using string attribute

I have a redis hash store that looks like Item:<id>, with attribute name. I want to filter the hash store by a prefix for name attribute.
What I'm trying to do is store the name (lowercased) in a separate Z-set called Item:::name while setting the score to 0. By doing this, I'm successfully able to get the desired result using ZRANGEBYLEX however I'm unable to map the results back to the original Items. How should I go about implementing something like this?
I've seen multiple autocomplete examples for Redis which require the same functionality but without linking the words back to an actual Item (hash in this case)
In sorted sets the member can't be duplicated, it has to be unique. So different users with the same name will cause problem.
My suggestion requires application layer coding to parse response array and executing hash commands (it will be like secondary indexes);
127.0.0.1:6379> HSET user:1 name jack
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> HSET user:2 name john
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> HSET user:3 name keanu
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> HSET user:4 name jack
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> ZADD item:names 0 jack::user:1 0 john::user:2 0 keanu::user:3 0 jack::user:4
(integer) 4
127.0.0.1:6379> ZRANGE item:names 0 -1 WITHSCORES
1) "jack::user:1"
2) "0"
3) "jack::user:4"
4) "0"
5) "john::user:2"
6) "0"
7) "keanu::user:3"
8) "0"
127.0.0.1:6379> ZRANGEBYLEX item:names [jack [jo
1) "jack::user:1"
2) "jack::user:4"
At the end you will have name::hash-key formatted array elements. At application layer if you separate each element to two substrings by using ::(any other string such as !!! or || etc) you will have user:1 and user:4.
127.0.0.1:6379> HGETALL user:1
1) "name"
2) "jack"
127.0.0.1:6379> HGETALL user:4
1) "name"
2) "jack"
127.0.0.1:6379>

Reset value for key in redis

I am storing some values in redis like for key: 1 the value will be
{"counter":1,"counter1":2}
Now I need to reset value of counter while the counter1 should be remaining same.
To increase counter I am use the command SETEX mykey 60 redis .
But it will also reset the value of counter1. So is there any way I can reset one value for a single key.
Let me know if I need to add some more info.
Instead of string you may use hash, then it will be easy. you can increment by some other value, delete counter etc etc. Each key in your json will be hash field.
127.0.0.1:6379> hset mykey counter 1 counter1 2
(integer) 2
127.0.0.1:6379> hgetall mykey
1) "counter"
2) "1"
3) "counter1"
4) "2"
127.0.0.1:6379> hset mykey counter 25
(integer) 0
127.0.0.1:6379> hgetall mykey
1) "counter"
2) "25"
3) "counter1"
4) "2"
127.0.0.1:6379> HINCRBY mykey counter 15
(integer) 40
127.0.0.1:6379> hgetall mykey
1) "counter"
2) "40"
3) "counter1"
4) "2"
127.0.0.1:6379>

Redis - Check is a given set of ids are part of a redis list/hash

I have a large set of ids (around 100000) which I want to store in redis.
I am looking for the most optimal way through which I can check if a given list of ids, what are the ids that are part of my set.
If I use a redis set, I can use SISMEMBER to check if a id is part of my set, but in this case I want to check if, given a list of ids, which one is part of my set.
Example:
redis> SADD myset "1"
(integer) 1
redis> SADD myset "2"
(integer) 2
redis> MYCOMMAND myset "[1,2,4,5]"
(list) 1, 2
Does anything of this sort exist already ?
thanks !

Sorted Sets Not updating value based on key in Redis

I am new to sorted sets in Redis (3.0.2). I basically want to update my value in sorted sets of Redis based on unique key. As of now "zadd" each time keeps on adding new values to a specific key.
As of now:
127.0.0.1:6379> zadd xyz 1 "abc"
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> zadd xyz 1 "newabc"
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> zrange xyz 0 -1
1) "abc"
2) "newabc"
Required Output: (It should over write the xyz key's value from "abc" to "newabc"
127.0.0.1:6379> zadd xyz 1 "abc"
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> zadd xyz 1 "newabc"
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> zrange xyz 0 -1
1) "newabc"
A sorted set in Redis is a set when we talk about the element, while multiple different elements can coexist with the same score.
If you want that output, you'll need to design a different data model, and since I don't know your actual issue or what's your goal in your project, I won't be able to provide a clear solution.

Is there MGET analog for Redis hashes?

I'm planning to start using hashes insead of regular keys. But I can't find any information about multi get for hash-keys in Redis wiki. Is this kind of command is supported by Redis?
Thank you.
You can query hashes or any keys in pipeline, i.e. in one request to your redis instance. Actual implementation depends on your client, but with redis-py it'd look like this:
pipe = conn.pipeline()
pipe.hgetall('foo')
pipe.hgetall('bar')
pipe.hgetall('zar')
hash1, hash2, hash3 = pipe.execute()
Client will issue one request with 3 commands. This is the same technique that is used to add multiple values to a set at once.
Read more at http://redis.io/topics/pipelining
No MHGETALL but you can Lua it:
local r = {}
for _, v in pairs(KEYS) do
r[#r+1] = redis.call('HGETALL', v)
end
return r
If SORT let you use multiple GETs with the -> syntax, and all your hashes had the same fields, you could get them in a bulk reply by putting their names into a set and sorting that.
SORT names_of_hashes GET *->field1 *->field2 *->field3 *->etc
But it doesn't look like you can do that with the hash access. Plus you'd have to turn the return list back into hashes yourself.
UPDATE: Redis seems to let you fetch multiple fields if you name your hashes nicely:
redis> hset hash:1 name fish
(integer) 1
redis> hset hash:2 name donkey
(integer) 1
redis> hset hash:3 name horse
(integer) 1
redis> hset hash:1 type fish
(integer) 1
redis> hset hash:2 type mammal
(integer) 1
redis> hset hash:3 type mammal
(integer) 1
redis> sadd animals 1
(integer) 1
redis> sadd animals 2
(integer) 1
redis> sadd animals 3
(integer) 1
redis> sort animals get # get hash:*->name get hash:*->type
1. "1"
2. "fish"
3. "fish"
4. "2"
5. "donkey"
6. "mammal"
7. "3"
8. "horse"
9. "mammal"
There is no command to do it on one shot, but there is a way to do it "nicely", using a list (or sorted set) where you would store you hashKeys, and then retrieve them as bulk using multi.
In PHP:
$redis->zAdd("myHashzSet", 1, "myHashKey:1");
$redis->zAdd("myHashzSet", 2, "myHashKey:2");
$redis->zAdd("myHashzSet", 3, "myHashKey:3");
$members = $redis->zRange("myHashzSet", 0, -1);
$redis->multi();
foreach($members as $hashKey) {
$redis->hGetAll($hashKey);
}
$results = $redis->exec();
I recommand using a sorted set, where you use the score as an ID for your hash, it allows to take advantages of all score based command.
Redis has a HMGET command, which returns the values of several hash keys with one command.
