Redis Django - how to rename all cache keys according to a specific pattern In python (django)

I have multiple keys in redis such as key_1, key_2, key_3 and so on. I wanted to append "s" after each keys prefix, (here key prefix is "key") so it will become keys_1, keys_2, keys_3

I am using django cache from django.core.cache import cache

is there any functionality that can rename keys based on pattern or is there anything in redis-cli to solve this problem.

Please help.

You'll need to use redis commands. Depending on the package you're using to expose redis as a cache backend, you should be able to access the redis client.

Also, if you have a lot of keys, I suggest that you iterate through the keys using the scan command instead of KEYS to avoid blocking the redis server for a long time.
