GETRANGE

GETRANGE key start end

Available since 2.4.0.

Time complexity: O(N) where N is the length of the returned string. The complexity is ultimately determined by the returned length, but because creating a substring from an existing string is very cheap, it can be considered O(1) for small strings.

Warning: this command was renamed to GETRANGE, it is called SUBSTR in Redis versions <= 2.0.

Returns the substring of the string value stored at key, determined by the offsets start and end (both are inclusive). Negative offsets can be used in order to provide an offset starting from the end of the string. So -1 means the last character, -2 the penultimate and so forth.

The function handles out of range requests by limiting the resulting range to the actual length of the string.

Return value

Bulk string reply

Examples

redis> SET mykey "This is a string" "OK" redis> GETRANGE mykey 0 3 "This" redis> GETRANGE mykey -3 -1 "ing" redis> GETRANGE mykey 0 -1 "This is a string" redis> GETRANGE mykey 10 100 "string"
