JSON.ARRTRIM

Syntax
JSON.ARRTRIM key path start stop
Available in:
Redis Stack / JSON 1.0.0
Time complexity:
O(N) when path is evaluated to a single value where N is the size of the array, O(N) when path is evaluated to multiple values, where N is the size of the key

Trim an array so that it contains only the specified inclusive range of elements

Examples

Required arguments

key

is key to modify.

Optional arguments

path

is JSONPath to specify. Default is root $.

start

is index of the first element to keep (previous elements are trimmed). Default is 0.

stop

is the index of the last element to keep (following elements are trimmed), including the last element. Default is 0. Negative values are interpreted as starting from the end.

About out-of-range indexes

JSON.ARRTRIM is extremely forgiving, and using it with out-of-range indexes does not produce an error. Note a few differences between how RedisJSON v2.0 and legacy versions handle out-of-range indexes.

Behavior as of RedisJSON v2.0:

  • If start is larger than the array's size or start > stop, returns 0 and an empty array.
  • If start is < 0, then start from the end of the array.
  • If stop is larger than the end of the array, it is treated like the last element.

Return

JSON.ARRTRIM returns an array of integer replies for each path, the array's new size, or nil, if the matching JSON value is not an array. For more information about replies, see Redis serialization protocol specification.

Examples

Trim an array to a specific set of values

Create two headphone products with maximum sound levels.

redis> JSON.GET key $
"[[{\"name\":\"Healthy headphones\",\"description\":\"Wireless Bluetooth headphones with noise-cancelling technology\",\"connection\":{\"wireless\":true,\"type\":\"Bluetooth\"},\"price\":99.98,\"stock\":25,\"colors\":[\"black\",\"silver\"],\"max_level\":[60,70,80]},{\"name\":\"Noisy headphones\",\"description\":\"Wireless Bluetooth headphones with noise-cancelling technology\",\"connection\":{\"wireless\":true,\"type\":\"Bluetooth\"},\"price\":99.98,\"stock\":25,\"colors\":[\"black\",\"silver\"],\"max_level\":[85,90,100,120]}]]"
OK

Add new sound level values to the second product.

redis> JSON.ARRAPPEND key $.[1].max_level 140 160 180 200 220 240 260 280
1) (integer) 12

Get the updated array.

redis> JSON.GET key $.[1].max_level
"[[85,90,100,120,140,160,180,200,220,240,260,280]]"

Keep only the values between the fifth and the ninth element, inclusive of that last element.

redis> JSON.ARRTRIM key $.[1].max_level 4 8
1) (integer) 5

Get the updated array.

redis> JSON.GET key $.[1].max_level
"[[140,160,180,200,220]]"
