# MODULE LOAD

> Load a module; not supported in HotKV, the command always replies with an error.

```
MODULE LOAD path [argument ...]
```

`MODULE LOAD` exists for compatibility only. HotKV does not load modules,
so the command always fails, whatever the path. The features Redis gets from
common modules, such as Bloom filters, count-min sketch, top-k, time series
and vector search, are built into HotKV.

## Return value

Always this error, in RESP2 and RESP3:

```
ERR Module loading is not supported in this build. HotKV provides built-in support for all common data structures.
```

Without a path: `ERR wrong number of arguments for 'module|load' command`.

## Examples

```
127.0.0.1:6379> MODULE LOAD /usr/lib/redis/modules/redisbloom.so
(error) ERR Module loading is not supported in this build. HotKV provides built-in support for all common data structures.
```

## Compatibility

Redis 7 and Valkey 8 load the module. HotKV never does.
