GET key

Get the value of key. If the key does not exist the special value nil is returned. An error is returned if the value stored at key is not a string, because GET only handles string values.

*Return value

Bulk string reply: the value of key, or nil when key does not exist.

*Examples

redis>  GET nonexisting
(nil)
redis>  SET mykey "Hello"
"OK"
redis>  GET mykey
"Hello"
redis>
