Parse Redis HGETALL object in Node.js

Question

I'm trying to parse an HGETALL object in Node.js.

---

In Redis CLI:

> HGETALL userList

returns

1) "19578616521094096601"
2) "User 1"
3) "1682930884780137383"
4) "User 2"

---

In Node:

var redis = require('redis')
,   r = redis.createClient();

console.log(r.HGETALL('userList'));

returns

true

---

I would like to parse the userList object as JSON or an array but I can't seem to figure out how to pull data out of it.

Answer 1

RedisClient use callback to return the result.

Exemple:

var redis = require('redis'),
    r = redis.createClient();

r.hgetall('userList', function(err, results) {
   if (err) {
       // do something like callback(err) or whatever
   } else {
      // do something with results
      console.log(results)
   }
});
