debug output shows weird value from get() about jedis-mock HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi!

Thanks for your interest in the project. First of all let me ask, are the returned values what you expect? I.e. are incr and get returning the correct values, because they should be if not then you may have found a bug which I need to attend to.

Now let me explain the log lines. The log lines are showing what "encoded" responses are being sent back. With incran integer is being sent back as shown here with get a string is being sent back as shown here.

You can see that the encodings for strings and ints are different. This is required by the redis protocol which is defined here. In other words jedis clients expect bulk strings to be prepended with $x where x is the number of characters in the string. That's why the string 5 (gets returns strings in the mocks case) has an encoding of $15. Knowing the returned encoding is useful for me while I dev this tool. Hence the confusing debug line. I will try to make that clearer in the next release.

Does that help?

Hi!
Ok, now it makes perfect sense.
Yes, the values returned are exactly what I expect - so there is no issue there.
I was only confused with the "$1" prepended to the expected value.
Now that you explained the protocol - it looks correct, as the length of the response is indeed "1" character.

Thank you for the explanation - and for maintaining such a valuable project!

Cool. Glad that explanation made sense. Thanks for the question and for using the project. I am going to close this issue. If you have any other questions/concerns/suggestions please feel to create another issue.
