How to Mock Redis Pipeline Batch Commands in Python
Create a lightweight MockRedis class that simulates Redis pipeline batching with SET, GET, and DELETE operations for testing without a live server.
import redis
import time
class MockRedis:
def __init__(self):
self.data = {}
def pipeline(self):
return MockPipeline(self)
def execute(self, commands):
results = []
for cmd in commands:
op, args = cmd[0], cmd[1:]
if op == "SET":
se…How to use Redis MGET MSET pipeline in Python
Store multiple keys atomically and read them efficiently with Redis MSET/MGET, then batch commands with a pipeline to cut round trips.
import redis # v4.x+ required
r = redis.Redis(host="localhost", port=6379, db=0, decode_responses=True)
# Sample data to store
r.flushdb()
data = {"name": "Alice", "age": "30", "city": "Berlin"}
# MSET: store multiple key-value pairs in one command
r.mset(data)
# MGET: fetch multiple keys in one round trip
