How to log all Redis commands executed in a Python script?

Question

I have a Python script that executes Redis commands via redis-py. How can I print the commands being executed when the script runs for debugging purposes? I have access to both the code and the Redis server.

Add decorators that call logging pymotw.com/3/logging/index.html to the Redis calls. — Mark Setchell

You can use the Monitor command.

All you have to do is open the redis-cli and call MONITOR, and then it will log every command sent to Redis.

$ redis-cli 
127.0.0.1:6379> MONITOR
OK
1617778908.016538 [0 127.0.0.1:38138] "set" "foo" "bar"

Great solution! Might be worth adding that you don't actually need to "enter" the CLI, you can start monitoring from outside if you want to redirect the output to a file or process it with awk or similar, e.g. redis-cli MONITOR | awk '...' or like redis-cli MONITOR > redis.log
