Hey guys am trying to figure out kv and how to get stuffout of it how do i get iteme that have the key ["repo_pkgjson",reponame] example

 const repos = await kv.get(["repo_pkgjson","tigawanna/all-emps-web"]);

 const repos = await kv.get(["repo_pkgjson","tigawanna/all-emps-web"]);

returns

    "key": [
        "repo_pkgjson",
        "tigawanna/all-emps-web"

            ]
    },
    "versionstamp": "000000000000046d0000"
}

but this

  const repos = await kv.list({prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"]});

  const repos = await kv.list({prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"]});

returns an empty array , waht am i doing wrong?

Can you show the full code? kv.list returns an async iterator, not an array of entries. You want to do for await (const repo of repos) { ... } with the result of the list operation.

list returns a KvListIterator. You must await each entry.

  const entries = db.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] })
  for await (const entry of entries) {
     console.info('key: ', entry.key)
     console.info('value ', entry.value)
  }

  const entries = db.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] })
  for await (const entry of entries) {
     console.info('key: ', entry.key)
     console.info('value ', entry.value)
  }

Thanks guys it worked

Better yet since Deno 1.38: - in one step

const repos = await Array.fromAsync(kv.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] }));

const repos = await Array.fromAsync(kv.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] }));

- in two steps

const iter = kv.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] });
const repos = await Array.fromAsync(iter);

const iter = kv.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] });
const repos = await Array.fromAsync(iter);

And you can still access each of them before storing them. For instance if you just want the Value and not the KV Part Key nor the Versionstamp:

const iter = kv.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] });
const repos = await Array.fromAsync(iter, repo => repo.value);

const iter = kv.list({ prefix: ["repo_pkgjson"] });
const repos = await Array.fromAsync(iter, repo => repo.value);
