Is it possible to set expiry to redis keys (bulk operation)

Question

I am using mget(keys, *args) to bulk set keys.
I also want to set expiration time to keys. The reason I am using mset is to save calls to redis.
Is there a way to bulk set keys with expiration ?
Thanks.

Answer 1

There is no command that sets the TTL for multiple keys, in the fashion that MSET works. You can, however, replace the call to MSET with a Lua script that does SETEX for each key and value passed to it as parameters.
