XLEN key
Available since:
5.0.0
Time complexity:
O(1)
ACL categories:
@read, @stream, @fast,

Returns the number of entries inside a stream. If the specified key does not exist the command returns zero, as if the stream was empty. However note that unlike other Redis types, zero-length streams are possible, so you should call TYPE or EXISTS in order to check if a key exists or not.

Streams are not auto-deleted once they have no entries inside (for instance after an XDEL call), because the stream may have consumer groups associated with it.

Examples

XADD mystream * item 1 XADD mystream * item 2 XADD mystream * item 3 XLEN mystream
