Welcome back! In the previous lessons, we delved into connecting to Redis and performing operations with numbers. Now, let's explore another essential Redis data structure: lists. Lists in Redis are an excellent way to store ordered collections of items, such as names, messages, or even tasks.
By the end of this lesson, you'll know how to:
- Use the
rpush
command to add items to a Redis list. - Retrieve list items using the
lrange
command.
Here's a quick look at how you'll be working with lists in Redis:
Let's break down the commands used in the example above:
- The
rpush
command adds the namesAlice
,Bob
, andCharlie
to the list namedstudents
. The first argument is the list name, followed by the item to add. Note that the command adds items to the end of the list, so the elements will be in the order they were added.
