In redis, how do i remove keys?

Question

I want to remove keys that match \"user*\".

how do I do that in redis command line?

Answer 1

Another compact one-liner I use to do what you want is:

redis-cli KEYS "user*" | xargs redis-cli DEL

Answer 2

Using awk, find all matching keys from redis using redis-cli KEYS command and pipe to redis-cli DEL command.

redis-cli KEYS "user*"  | awk '{ system("redis-cli DEL " $1) }'
