INCRBY

Syntax

  1. INCRBY key increment

Time complexity: O(1)

Increments the number stored at key by increment. If the key does not exist, it is set to 0 before performing the operation. An error is returned if the key contains a value of the wrong type or contains a string that can not be represented as integer. This operation is limited to 64 bit signed integers.

See INCR for extra information on increment/decrement operations.

Return

Integer reply: the value of key after the increment

Examples

  1. dragonfly> SET mykey "10"
  2. "OK"
  3. dragonfly> INCRBY mykey 5
  4. (integer) 15
