[redis-db] ZPOPMIN command behaves inconsistently with the doc

[s***@gmail.com]

Hi,

In order to support Redis 5.0, I'm trying to add ZPOPMIN/MAX and
BZPOPMIN/MAX commands to my C++ Redis client
<https://github.com/sewenew/redis-plus-plus>. However, *I found these
commands behave inconsistently with the doc
<https://redis.io/commands/bzpopmax>*.

From the doc, the return value of the command is a three-element multi-bulk
with the second element being the score, and the third element being the
member. The doc also gives an example for the command with the specified
order.

However, when I sent these commands to Redis 5.0, *the elements of the
returned tuple have a different order*: the second element being the
member, and the third element being the score.

So, which one is the correct behavior? Since it's not a good idea to change
the API of a client library in the future, could you confirm the correct
behavior for me?

Thanks,

sewenew

Hello sewenew,

That is correct, and there is an open PR (
https://github.com/antirez/redis-doc/pull/997) to fix the confusion.

Be seeing you on SO,
