Since:

2.6.0

This command works exactly like EXPIRE but the time to live of the key is specified in milliseconds instead of seconds.

Options

The PEXPIRE command supports a set of options

• NX – Set expiry only when the key has no expiry
• XX – Set expiry only when the key has an existing expiry
• GT – Set expiry only when the new expiry is greater than current one
• LT – Set expiry only when the new expiry is less than current one

A non-volatile key is treated as an infinite TTL for the purpose of GT and LT. The GT, LT and NX options are mutually exclusive.

Examples

SET mykey "Hello"
PEXPIRE mykey 1500
TTL mykey
PTTL mykey
PEXPIRE mykey 1000 XX
TTL mykey
PEXPIRE mykey 1000 NX
TTL mykey
