@ -78,25 +78,31 @@ The standard replies that `redisCommand` are of the type `redisReply`. The
`type` field in the `redisReply` should be used to test what kind of reply
was received:
* `REDIS_REPLY_STATUS`:
* **`REDIS_REPLY_STATUS`**:
The command replied with a status reply. The status string can be accessed using `reply->str`.
The length of this string can be accessed using `reply->len`.
* `REDIS_REPLY_ERROR`:
* **`REDIS_REPLY_ERROR`**:
The command replied with an error. The error string can be accessed identical to `REDIS_REPLY_STATUS`.
* `REDIS_REPLY_INTEGER`:
* **`REDIS_REPLY_INTEGER`**:
The command replied with an integer. The integer value can be accessed using the
`reply->integer` field of type `long long`.
* `REDIS_REPLY_NIL`:
* **`REDIS_REPLY_NIL`**:
The command replied with a **nil** object. There is no data to access.
* `REDIS_REPLY_STRING`:
* **`REDIS_REPLY_STRING`**:
A bulk (string) reply. The value of the reply can be accessed using `reply->str`.
The length of this string can be accessed using `reply->len`.
* `REDIS_REPLY_ARRAY`:
* **`REDIS_REPLY_ARRAY`**:
A multi bulk reply. The number of elements in the multi bulk reply is stored in
`reply->elements`. Every element in the multi bulk reply is a `redisReply` object as well
and can be accessed via `reply->elements[..index..]`.

1. The input buffer is non-empty:
* Try to parse a single reply from the input buffer and return it
* If no reply could be parsed, continue at *2*
* Try to parse a single reply from the input buffer and return it

2. The input buffer is empty:
* Write the **entire** output buffer to the socket
* Read from the socket until a single reply could be parsed

The function `redisGetReply` is exported as part of the Hiredis API and can be used when a reply
is expected on the socket. To pipeline commands, the only things that needs to be done is
