[ Save redis hash instead of string ]
I can save a dict as a string in redis as follows:
>>> r.set(
'rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/',
{"Director": "blasco ricardo", "Platform": "RT"}
)
How would I save the dict as a dict/hash directly so I wouldn't have to use json.loads
to read it into a dict? Currently, if I do r.get()
I get the dict as a string:
>>> r.get('rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/')
'{"Director": "blasco ricardo", "Platform": "RT"}'

Look into hmset
HMSET 'rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/' Director "blasco ricardo" Platform "RT"
Then you can retrieve it with
HGETALL rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/
Or a specific field with
HGET rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/ Director
In python it would be
r.hmset('rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/', {'Director': 'blasco ricardo', 'Platform': 'RT'})
r.hgetall('rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/')
r.hget('rt.http://rottentomatoes.com/m/771354525/', 'Director')
