Is it possible to copy all keys from one Redis instance to another remote instance using MIGRATE
? I've tried COPY
, REPLACE
and KEYS
without any luck. Each time I get a NOKEY
response. If I use any of the MIGRATE
commands with a single key it works.
Examples:
MIGRATE my.redis 6379 "*" 0 5000 REPLACE // NOKEY
MIGRATE my.redis 6379 "*" 0 5000 COPY // NOKEY
MIGRATE my.redis 6379 "" 0 5000 KEYS * // NOKEY
MIGRATE my.redis 6379 "" 0 5000 KEYS test // OK
try run in your shell
redis-cli keys '*' | xargs -I '{}' redis-cli migrate my.redis 6379 "" 0 5000 KEYS '{}'
This is an improvement on the answer provided by @ezain since I am unable to post comments. The command uses the correct redis syntax for processing batches of keys, but the arguments to xargs
result in the command being called once for every key instead of just once with all the keys included (which means it'll take much more time to complete than is necessary). The following will be much faster in all cases:
redis-cli --raw KEYS '*' | xargs redis-cli MIGRATE my.redis 6379 "" 0 5000 KEYS
I'm not advocating using this, but I tried all of these examples, and many others and did not work. I ended up doing it myself in PHP, so maybe this will help someone else who is stuck.
<?php
$redisSource = new Redis();
$redisSource->connect('1.2.3.4', 6379);
$redisSource->auth('password');
$redisTarget = new Redis();
$redisTarget->connect('127.0.0.1', 6379);
foreach($redisSource->keys('*') as $key) {
$redisTarget->set($key, $redisSource->get($key));
}
