SET

SummitDB README

SET key value [EX seconds] [PX milliseconds] [NX|XX]

Set key to hold the string value. If key already holds a value, it is overwritten, regardless of its type. Any previous time to live associated with the key is discarded on successful SET operation.

Options

EX seconds -- Set the specified expire time, in seconds.
PX milliseconds -- Set the specified expire time, in milliseconds.
NX -- Only set the key if it does not already exist.
XX -- Only set the key if it already exist.

Return value

Simple string reply: OK if SET was executed correctly. Null reply: a Null Bulk Reply is returned if the SET operation was not performed because the user specified the NX or XX option but the condition was not met.
