06:11:06 GMT <nohitall> morning, I am trying to load a dump.rdb from another machine, i copied it into the working dir var/lib/redis but the new server doesnt see it, although log says its initialized database but info shows no databases and no keys :/ anyone got a tip what to test?
06:12:24 GMT <nohitall> B machine is V4, A is most likely 3.x so should work
06:14:08 GMT <nohitall> hm actually A is also 4.0.1
06:35:33 GMT <nohitall> hm ok turns out restarting redis truncates my dump.rdb file?
06:36:27 GMT <nohitall> https://pastebin.com/raw/ibz8HazK  is there another way to load a file ? I only read to put it in the work dir..
06:41:29 GMT <nohitall> got it...gotta stop redis, then copy then start *facepalm*
06:47:13 GMT <xco> hi i’m playing with redis. if i type “KEYS *” i get stuff like
06:47:19 GMT <xco>  1) "similar_objects:syn:iPhon"
06:47:19 GMT <xco>  2) "similar_objects:syn:roller bag"
06:47:32 GMT <xco> then if i do TYPE similar_objects
06:47:37 GMT <xco> i get “set” in return
06:47:56 GMT <xco> what is the :syn part of 1) "similar_objects:syn:iPhon"
06:48:14 GMT <xco> and how do i delete say  "similar_objects:syn:iPhon”?
06:52:44 GMT <soveran> xco: the key is the string "similar_objects:syn:iPhon", the `:` is meaningless for Redis
06:53:13 GMT <xco> soveran: what’s the value then?
06:53:22 GMT <xco> i thought iPhon is the value
06:53:52 GMT <soveran> you can check the type of the key with TYPE "similar_objects:syn:iPhon"
06:54:24 GMT <xco> o cool, it says "string"
06:54:38 GMT <xco> but my question is if this "similar_objects:syn:iPhon" is the key
06:54:41 GMT <xco> what is the value?
06:54:47 GMT <xco> it’s confusing a bit to me
06:58:00 GMT <soveran> if the type of the key is "string", you can get the value with GET "similar_objects:syn:iPhon"
06:58:35 GMT <soveran> there are other commands that operate on strings, check the docs.
22:20:05 GMT <on3pk> if I'm only storing or retreiving complete JSON strings, do I really need to worry about installing json addons?
