ttl
TTL
TTL key
Returns the remaining time to live of a key that has a timeout. This introspection capability allows a Redis client to check how many seconds a given key will continue to be part of the dataset.
In Redis 2.6 or older the command returns -1
if the key does not exist or if the key exist but has no associated expire.
Starting with Redis 2.8 the return value in case of error changed:
- The command returns
-2
if the key does not exist. - The command returns
-1
if the key exists but has no associated expire.
See also the PTTL command that returns the same information with milliseconds resolution (Only available in Redis 2.6 or greater).
