Redis offers several commands for viewing and managing expired keys.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You can use the TTL command to view the remaining time to live of a key. The command is used as follows:<\/li>\n
  2. Time to Live key<\/li>\n
  3. Return value:<\/li>\n
  4. If the key exists and has a set expiration time, the remaining time of the key’s survival will be returned in seconds.<\/li>\n
  5. If the key does not exist, return -2.<\/li>\n
  6. If the key exists but has not been set with an expiration time, -1 is returned.<\/li>\n
  7. The PTTL command can be used to check the remaining time to live of a key in milliseconds. To use the command:<\/li>\n
  8. Primary Through the Lens (PTTL) key<\/li>\n
  9. The return value is the same as the TTL command, except the returned time is in milliseconds.<\/li>\n
  10. The EXPIRE command can be used to set an expiration time for a key. The command is used as follows:<\/li>\n
  11. The key will expire in a specific amount of seconds.<\/li>\n
  12. The parameter “seconds” is an integer that represents the expiration time (in seconds) of the key. Once the expiration time is reached, the key will be automatically deleted.<\/li>\n
  13. The PERSIST command can be used to remove the expiration time of a key, making it permanent. The command is used as follows:<\/li>\n
  14. Keep the key<\/li>\n
  15. When the expiration time of a key is successfully removed, the command returns 1; when the key does not exist or does not have an expiration time set, the command returns 0.<\/li>\n
  16. The “KEYS” command can be used to retrieve all keys that match a specified pattern. The format for using the command is:<\/li>\n
  17. Pattern of keys.<\/li>\n
  18. The parameter pattern can use wildcard characters to match patterns of keys, for example, * matches any number of characters, and ? matches one character.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Please be cautious when using the KEYS command in a production environment as it will iterate through the entire key space and may impact performance. In production environments, it is recommended to use the SCAN command for a gradual iteration through keys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
