Note: this requires a way to disable this clients in the child, but waiting for empty new jobs queue can be enough. + +STRING COMMANDS +=============== + +* Implement STRLEN, PEEK, POKE, SETBIT, GETBIT + +OTHER IMPORTANT THINGS THAT WILL BE ADDED BUT I'M NOT SURE WHEN +=============================================================== + +BIG ONES: + +* BRPOPLPUSH +* Specially encoded memory-saving integer sets. +* A command to export a JSON dump (there should be mostly working patch needing major reworking). +* Specially encoded sets of integers (this includes a big refactoring providing an higher level layer for Sets manipulation) + +SMALL ONES: + +* If sizeof(double) == sizeof(void*) we could store the double value of sorted sets directly in place of the pointer instead of allocating it in the heap. +* Delete on writes against expire policy should only happen after argument parsing for commands doing their own arg parsing stuff. +* Give errors when incrementing a key that does not look like an integer, when providing as a sorted set score something can't be parsed as a double, and so forth. +* MSADD (n keys) (n values). See this thread in the Redis google group: http://groups.google.com/group/redis-db/browse_thread/thread/e766d84eb375cd41 +* Don't save empty lists / sets / zsets on disk with snapshotting. +* Remove keys when a list / set / zset reaches length of 0. +* An option to exec a command slave-side if the master connection is lost: even cooler: if the script returns "0" the slave elects itself as master, otherwise continue trying to reconnect. +* PING the master from time to time to check if it's gone. + +THE "MAYBE" TODO LIST: things that may or may not get implemented +================================================================= + +Most of this can be seen just as proposals, the fact they are in this list +it's not a guarantee they'll ever get implemented ;) + +* SORT: Don't copy the list into a vector when BY argument is constant. +* Write the hash table size of every db in the dump, so that Redis can resize the hash table just one time when loading a big DB. +* Byte Array type (BA prefixed commands): BASETBIT BAGETBIT BASETU8 U16 U32 U64 S8 S16 S32 S64, ability to atomically INCRBY all the base types. BARANGE to get a range of bytes as a bulk value, BASETRANGE to set a range of bytes. +* Read-only mode. +* Kill the delete-on-write behavior of expires, replicating DELs +* Multiple BY in SORT. + +KNOWN BUGS +========== + +* LRANGE and other commands are using 32 bit integers for ranges, and overflows are not detected.
