FT.ALIASLIST example

This example demonstrates FTAliasList, the client binding for FT.ALIASLIST (Redis 8.10+): given an index name, it returns all aliases currently associated with that index.

Key points shown by the example:

An index with no aliases yields an empty result, not an error.
The reply is an unordered, deduplicated collection of alias names; do not rely on its order.
The argument must be an index created with FT.CREATE. Passing an alias is not resolved and fails with the server's SEARCH_INDEX_NOT_FOUND error — the same error a missing index produces.

Prerequisites

Redis 8.10+ with the Query Engine (search) module, listening on localhost:6379.

Run

shell

go run .

Expected output (alias order may differ):

aliases right after FT.CREATE: 0
aliases after FT.ALIASADD: [cities cities-latest]
FT.ALIASLIST with an alias as argument: SEARCH_INDEX_NOT_FOUND Index not found: cities
