#key ⇒ Object (readonly)

Returns the value of attribute key.

Instance Method Details

#<<(value) ⇒ Object

Works like push. Can chain together: list << ‘a’ << ‘b’

26
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 23

def <<(value)
  push(value)
  self  # for << 'a' << 'b'
end

#==(x) ⇒ Object

115
116
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 114

def ==(x)
  values == x
end

#[](index, length = nil) ⇒ Object

Same functionality as Ruby arrays. If a single number is given, return just the element at that index using Redis: LINDEX. Otherwise, return a range of values using Redis: LRANGE.

def [](index, length=nil)
  if index.is_a? Range
    range(index.first, index.last)
  elsif length
    range(index, length)
  else
    at(index)
  end
end

#at(index) ⇒ Object

Return the value at the given index. Can also use familiar list syntax. Redis: LINDEX



89
90
91
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 89

def at(index)
  from_redis redis.lindex(key, index)
end

#delete(name, count = 0) ⇒ Object

Delete the element(s) from the list that match name. If count is specified, only the first-N (if positive) or last-N (if negative) will be removed. Use .del to completely delete the entire key. Redis: LREM



71
72
73
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 71

def delete(name, count=0)
  redis.lrem(key, count, name)  # weird api
end

#each(&block) ⇒ Object

Iterate through each member of the set. Redis::Objects mixes in Enumerable, so you can also use familiar methods like collect, detect, and so forth.



77
78
79
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 77

def each(&block)
  values.each(&block)
end

#empty? ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if there are no elements in the list. Redis: LLEN == 0

Returns:

  • (Boolean) 


110
111
112
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 110

def empty?
  length == 0
end

#first ⇒ Object

Return the first element in the list. Redis: LINDEX(0)



94
95
96
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 94

def first
  at(0)
end

#last ⇒ Object

Return the last element in the list. Redis: LINDEX(-1)



99
100
101
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 99

def last
  at(-1)
end

#length ⇒ Object Also known as: size

Return the length of the list. Aliased as size. Redis: LLEN



104
105
106
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 104

def length
  redis.llen(key)
end

#pop ⇒ Object

Remove a member from the end of the list. Redis: RPOP



34
35
36
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 34

def pop
  from_redis redis.rpop(key)
end

#push(value) ⇒ Object

Add a member to the end of the list. Redis: RPUSH



29

31
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 29

def push(value)
  redis.rpush(key, to_redis(value))
end

#range(start_index, end_index) ⇒ Object

Return a range of values from start_index to end_index. Can also use the familiar list Ruby syntax. Redis: LRANGE



83
84
85
 
# File 'lib/redis/list.rb', line 83

def range(start_index, end_index)
  from_redis redis.lrange(key, start_index, end_index)
