How do I delete everything in Redis?

Question

I want to delete all keys. I want everything wiped out and give me a blank database.

Is there a way to do this in Redis client?

Answer 1

you can use following approach in python

def redis_clear_cache(self):

    try:
        redis_keys = self.redis_client.keys('*')
    except Exception as e:
        # print('redis_client.keys() raised exception => ' + str(e))
        return 1

    try:
        if len(redis_keys) != 0:
            self.redis_client.delete(*redis_keys)
    except Exception as e:
        # print('redis_client.delete() raised exception => ' + str(e))
        return 1

    # print("cleared cache")
    return 0
