## Summary

ledisdb use redis protocol called RESP(REdis Serialization Protocol), [here](http://redis.io/topics/protocol).

ledisdb all commands return RESP fomrat and it will use `int64` instead of  `RESP integer`, `string` instead of `RESP simple string`, `bulk string` instead of `RESP bulk string`, and `array` instead of `RESP arrays` below.

## ZSet

### ZADD key score member [score member ...]
Adds all the specified members with the specified scores to the sorted set stored at key. It is possible to specify multiple `score / member` pairs. If a specified member is already a member of the sorted set, the score is updated and the element reinserted at the right position to ensure the correct ordering.

If key does not exist, a new sorted set with the specified members as sole members is created, like if the sorted set was empty. If the key exists but does not hold a sorted set, an error is returned.

The score values should be the string representation of an `int64` number. `+inf` and `-inf` values are valid values as well.

**Currently, we only support int64 type, not double type.**

**Return value**

int64, specifically:

The number of elements added to the sorted sets, **not** including elements already existing for which the score was updated.


**Examples**

```

ledis> ZADD myset 1 'uno'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 2 'two' 3 'three'
(integer) 2
ledis> ZRANGE myset 0 -1 WITHSCORES
1) "one"

6) "2"
7) "three"
8) "3"

edis > ZADD myset 1 'one'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 1 'uno'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 2 'two' 3 'three'
(integer) 2

### ZCOUNT key min max
Returns the number of elements in the sorted set at key with a score between `min` and `max`.
The `min` and `max` arguments have the same semantic as described for `ZRANGEBYSCORE`.

**Return value**

int64: the number of elements in the specified score range.

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myset 1 'one'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 1 'uno'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 2 'two' 3 'three'
(integer) 2
ledis> ZRANGE myset 0 -1 WITHSCORES
1) "one"
2) "1"
3) "uno"
4) "1"
5) "two"
6) "2"
7) "three"
8) "3"
ledis> zcount myset -inf +inf
(integer) 4
ledis> zcount myset (1 3
(integer) 2
```

### ZINCRBY key increment member

Increments the score of member in the sorted set stored at key by increment. If member does not exist in the sorted set, it is added with increment as its score (as if its previous score was 0). If key does not exist, a new sorted set with the specified member as its sole member is created.
An error is returned when key exists but does not hold a sorted set.
The score value should be the string representation of a numeric value. It is possible to provide a negative value to decrement the score.

**Return value**

bulk: the new score of member (an int64 number), represented as string.

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myset 1 'one'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 2 'two'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZINCRBY myset 2 'one'
3
ledis> ZRANGE myset 0 -1 WITHSCORES
1) "two"
2) "2"
3) "one"
4) "3"
```

### ZRANGE key start stop [WITHSCORES]
Returns the specified range of elements in the sorted set stored at key. The elements are considered to be ordered from the lowest to the highest score. Lexicographical order is used for elements with equal score.

**Return value**

array: list of elements in the specified range (optionally with their scores).

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myset 1 'one'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 2 'two'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myset 3 'three'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZRANGE myset 0 -1
1) "one"
2) "two"
3) "three"
ledis> ZRANGE myset 2 3
1) "three"
ledis> ZRANGE myset -2 -1
1) "two"
2) "three"
```

### ZRANGEBYSCORE key min max [WITHSCORES] [LIMIT offset count]

Returns all the elements in the sorted set at key with a score between `min` and `max` (including elements with score equal to `min` or `max`). The elements are considered to be ordered from low to high scores.

**Exclusive intervals and infinity**

`min` and `max` can be `-inf` and `+inf`, so that you are not required to know the highest or lowest score in the sorted set to get all elements from or up to a certain score.
By default, the interval specified by min and max is closed (inclusive). It is possible to specify an open interval (exclusive) by prefixing the score with the character (. For example:

```
ZRANGEBYSCORE zset (1 5
```

Will return all elements with 1 < score <= 5 while:

```
ZRANGEBYSCORE zset (5 (10
```

Will return all the elements with 5 < score < 10 (5 and 10 excluded).


**Return value**

array: list of elements in the specified score range (optionally with their scores).

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myzset 1 'one'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myzset 2 'two'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myzset 3 'three'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZRANGEBYSCORE myzset -inf +inf WITHSCORES
1) "one"
2) "1"
3) "two"
4) "2"
5) "three"
6) "3"
ledis> ZRANGEBYSCORE myzset -inf +inf WITHSCORES LIMIT  2 5
1) "three"
2) "3"
ledis> ZRANGEBYSCORE myzset (1 2 WITHSCORES
1) "two"
2) "2"
ledis> ZRANGEBYSCORE myzset (1 (2 WITHSCORES
```

### ZRANK key member
Returns the rank of member in the sorted set stored at key, with the scores ordered from low to high. The rank (or index) is `0-based`, which means that the member with the lowest score has rank 0.

**Return value**

Return value

- If member exists in the sorted set, Integer reply: the rank of member.
- If member does not exist in the sorted set or key does not exist, Bulk string reply: nil.

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myzset 1 'one'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myzset 2 'two'
(integer) 1
ledis> ZADD myzset 3 'three'
(integer) 1

(integer) 1
ledis> ZREM myset one four three
(integer) 2
```

### ZREMRANGEBYRANK key start stop
Removes all elements in the sorted set stored at key with rank between start and stop. Both start and stop are 0 -based indexes with 0 being the element with the lowest score. These indexes can be negative numbers, where they indicate offsets starting at the element with the highest score. For example: -1 is the element with the highest score, -2 the element with the second highest score and so forth.

**Return value**

int64: the number of elements removed.

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myset 1 one 2 two 3 three 4 four
(integer) 3

6) "4"
```

### ZREVRANGE key start stop [WITHSCORES]
Returns the specified range of elements in the sorted set stored at key. The elements are considered to be ordered from the highest to the lowest score. Descending lexicographical order is used for elements with equal score.
Apart from the reversed ordering, ZREVRANGE is similar to `ZRANGE`.

**Return value**

array: list of elements in the specified range (optionally with their scores).

**Examples**

```
ledis> ZADD myset 1 one 2 two 3 three 4 four
(integer) 4
ledis> ZREVRANGE myset 0 -1
1) "four"
2) "three"
3) "two"
4) "one"
```

### ZREVRANGEBYSCORE  key max min [WITHSCORES] [LIMIT offset count]
Returns all the elements in the sorted set at key with a score between max and min (including elements with score equal to max or min). In contrary to the default ordering of sorted sets, for this command the elements are considered to be ordered from high to low scores.
The elements having the same score are returned in reverse lexicographical order.
Apart from the reversed ordering, ZREVRANGEBYSCORE is similar to ZRANGEBYSCORE.

**Return value**

array: list of elements in the specified score range (optionally with their scores).

**Examples**

```
ledis>  ZADD myset 1 one 2 two 3 three 4 four

1) "three"
2) "3"
3) "two"
4) "2"
```

### ZSCORE key member
Returns the score of member in the sorted set at key.
If member does not exist in the sorted set, or key does not exist, `nil` is returned.

## Replication

### SLAVEOF host port

Changes the replication settings of a slave on the fly. If the server is already acting as slave, SLAVEOF NO ONE will turn off the replication.

SLAVEOF host port will make the server a slave of another server listening at the specified host and port.

If a server is already a slave of a master, SLAVEOF host port will stop the replication against the old and start the synchronization against the new one, discarding the old dataset.


### FULLSYNC

Inner command, starts a fullsync from the master set by SLAVEOF.

FULLSYNC will first try to sync all data from the master, save in local disk, then discard old dataset and load new one.

**Return value**

**Examples**


### SYNC index offset

Inner command, syncs the new changed from master set by SLAVEOF at offset in binlog.index file.

**Return value**

**Examples**

## Server
