ZREM does not work, but zrem does ... about redis-rb HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi,
You should use zrem in lowercase as it's a Ruby method.
Thanks.

from redis-rb.

i already figured that out :D
I meant that it should be either fixed or deprecated, i wasted quiet some time to get to the 'use lowercase' conclusion

from redis-rb.

I'm really sorry if it made you lose time. I don't think anybody else is calling a Ruby method in an all-caps fashion.

from redis-rb.

if you do not think anybody uses it, why are these methods there?
Why not make them private ?

from redis-rb.

They are not 'there'. The client uses a Ruby technique by which an object can react to methods not explicitly defined in the class (look for method_missing in the code).
So you can also do:
Redis.new.very_funny_command. It won't raise a NoMethodError, but rather it'll try to issue a VERY_FUNNY_COMMAND to Redis.

from redis-rb.

hmm seems like there is no way to build around that, thanks for the explanation!
