ACL categories: @slow @scripting

Return the serialized payload of loaded libraries. You can restore the serialized payload later with the FUNCTION RESTORE command.

For more information please refer to Introduction to Redis Functions.

@return

@bulk-string-reply: the serialized payload

@examples

The following example shows how to dump loaded libraries using and then it calls FUNCTION FLUSH.It then restores the library from the serialized payload, Then, it restores the original libraries from the serialized payload with FUNCTION RESTORE.

redis> FUNCTION DUMP

redis> FUNCTION FLUSH
OK
