- Usage:
-
EXISTS key [ key ... ]
- Complexity:
- O(N) where N is the number of keys to check.
- Since:
- 1.0.0
Returns if key exists.
The user should be aware that if the same existing key is mentioned in the arguments multiple times, it will be counted multiple times. So if somekey exists, EXISTS somekey somekey will return 2.
Examples
127.0.0.1:6379> SET key1 "Hello"
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> EXISTS key1
(integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> EXISTS nosuchkey
(integer) 0
127.0.0.1:6379> SET key2 "World"
OK
127.0.0.1:6379> EXISTS key1 key2 nosuchkey
(integer) 2
