HMGET returns the values of the given fields of the hash at key, in the order you asked for them. A field that does not exist (or whose time to live has passed) gives a nil in its position. A missing key behaves like an empty hash.

Return value

Section titled “Return value”
Case RESP2 RESP3
Success Array with one entry per field: bulk string, or nil bulk string for a missing field Array of bulk strings, with null for a missing field

HMGET replies with a WRONGTYPE error if key holds a value that is not a hash.

Examples

2) (nil)
