Redis ZRANGEBYLEX Replacement

Starting with Redis 6.2.0, the ZRANGE command added the REV, BYSCORE, BYLEX and LIMIT options. The addition of the first three options means that the ZRANGE command can now do what the ZREVRANGE, ZRANGEBYSCORE, ZREVRANGEBYSCORE, ZRANGEBYLEX and ZREVRANGEBYLEX commands can do.

As a result, those commands are now deprecated (as of Redis 6.2.0).

Therefore, we should no longer use the ZRANGEBYLEX command. Instead, we should use the ZRANGE command with the BYLEX argument.

Redis ZREMRANGEBYLEX Command Explained

In Redis, the ZREMRANGEBYLEX command enables us to use a lexicographical range to remove members from a sorted set. That is, we can specify that all members between a given lexicographical range are removed.

This relies on all members having the same score (which forces lexicographical ordering).
