SADD

Synopsis

SADD key value [value ...]

This command adds one or more given values to the set that is associated with the given key.

• If the key does not exist, a new set is created, and members are added with the given values.
• If the key is associated with a value that is not a set, an error is raised.
• If a specified value already exists in the given set, that value is ignored and not counted toward the total of newly added members.

Return value

Depends on the configuration parameter emulate_redis_responses.

• If emulate_redis_responses is true, returns the number of new members that were added by this command not including the duplicates.
• If emulate_redis_responses is false, returns OK.
