We also changed our wording to indentify this kind of abstraction so
instead of using "scripted commands" (kind of broken English) we now
use "scriptable commands".
While command classes define how the client should filter arguments or
parse responses, key prefixing depends on the actual command signature
as defined by Redis so it really is something that should be handled
separately as the norm.
Developers can define new handlers or override existing ones, but they
can still define the key prefixing logic inside their command classes
by implementing Predis\Command\PrefixableCommandInterface: the key
prefix processor will just use that by overriding any defined handler.
We previously used FALSE for that but in the end it does not make much
sense. Luckily for us this does not represent a breaking change since
existing code will keep to work, so we can safely push this change into
the next patch release.
Now Predis\Command\ScriptedCommand uses EVALSHA instead of EVAL internally
so that performances should be better since the client do not resend the
Lua script body on each call.
Plain EVALSHA commands are not affected and will return or throw the error.
With a negative number Predis will count from the end of the arguments list
to calculate the actual number of keys that will be interpreted as elements
for `KEYS` by the underlying `EVAL` command.
