Redis - Error: value is not a valid float

Question

I have a sorted set in Redis. I am trying to update the counter value of a specific element by using zincrby in Python code like:

conn.zincrby("usersSet", float(1), "user1")

But it is showing an error as : 'Error: value is not a valid float'

I tried the same command on cli : zincrby usersSet 1 users1 And it is working correctly. Is there any other method in Python code to increase the counter value of the specific key in the sorted set.

Answer 1

Parameters order are differ between redis-cli and python connector. You have to write conn.zincrby("usersSet", "user1", 1)

UPDATE

The python redis library was updated to match redis-cli's order of arguments.

Hence, conn.zincrby("usersSet", 1, "user1") will be the correct usage now.
