Check keys' expire times through the redis-cli - laravel

Question

I have a question about Redis caching.
I wrote some code to cache some information and it works fine, but is there a way to check what's being stored inside of it through redis-cli? I just want to make sure that the value gets deleted after 10 minutes.
how I store stuff:
Cache::store('redis')->put('inventory_' . $this->user->steamid64, $items, 15);

Since you are using laravel's Cache class instead of Redis - then you need to check for the prefix. By default it ships like this in config/cache.php
'prefix' => env('CACHE_PREFIX', 'laravel')
If there is a prefix(and it is laravel) it is going to be like this (if there is no prefix then you may discard laravel: from the key names)
127.0.0.1:6379> get laravel:inventory_1
"somevalue"
127.0.0.1:6379> ttl laravel:inventory_1
(integer) 885
127.0.0.1:6379>
For the "development" purpose you may also use monitor command to see which commands are executed in redis. It is going to print like this;
127.0.0.1:6379> monitor
OK
1591091085.487083 [0 127.0.0.1:51828] "set" "myinventory_1" "myvalue" "EX" "900"
1591091091.143395 [0 127.0.0.1:51828] "get" "myinventory_1"
1591091095.280724 [0 127.0.0.1:51828] "ttl" "myinventory_1"
Side note: You don't need to call store method if your default cache driver is already redis.

Enter the redis-cli and use:
keys * to see list of all keys
TTL my_key_name to see remaining expire time of the key
You can execute any of Redis commands inside of the redis-cli. It's good tool for development.
