FUNCTION-LIST(3valkey)

💖 FUNCTION-LIST(3valkey) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Valkey Command Manual entry for function-list — she's the one who spills the tea on every library you've got loaded up in your server. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

function-list — returns information about all libraries. that's it, that's the job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

FUNCTION LIST [LIBRARYNAME library-name-pattern] [WITHCODE]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, FUNCTION LIST returns information about the functions and the libraries. no cap.

you can drop the optional LIBRARYNAME argument to give a pattern</> for matching library names — think of it like a vibe check but for library names only. and the optional WITHCODE modifier? that one makes the server include the libraries' source implementation right there in the reply. yes bestie, the actual code. iconic.

here's the info you get back for each library in the response:

• library_name — the name of the library.
• engine — the engine of the library.
• functions — the list of functions in the library. each function has these fields:
  • name — the name of the function.
  • description — the function's description.
  • flags — an array of valkey-functions-intro(7) function flags.
• library_code — the library's source code (only when you gave the WITHCODE modifier).

for more info please refer to valkey-functions-intro(7) Introduction to Valkey Functions. go read it, i'll wait 💖

🌈 REPLY 🌈

valkey-protocol(7) Array reply: information about functions and libraries. simple as that ✨

---

🎀 COMPLEXITY 🎀

O(N) where N is the number of functions.

so yeah, she scales with how many functions you got. the more you load, the more she's gotta walk through. math is math 🧚
