HEXPIRETIME returns the moment each listed field of the hash at key will expire, as a Unix timestamp in seconds (rounded up).

FIELDS must come right after the key, and numfields must equal the number of field names that follow.

Return value

Section titled “Return value”

An array with one integer per field, in the order given, under both RESP2 and RESP3:

Value Meaning
-2 The field or the key does not exist.
-1 The field exists but has no expiry.
Positive integer The expiry as a Unix time in seconds.

The errors are the same as for HTTL.
