I would like to convert an array table returned by Redis to be used in my C# code. How can I do that ?

After debugging the code, I can see that he returns an ArrayRedisResult 

string script = @"return redis.call('HGETALL', @key)";
LuaScript lScript = LuaScript.Prepare(script);
var lLScript = lScript.Load("myServerinformation");
var result = lLScript.Evaluate("myDatabaseInformation", "myKey");

Thank in advance

Taken from other answer where OP said in some comment:

the million dollars question is how to convert it to a type array that C# will understand?

You'll cry when you realize that your question has a very easy answer: ArrayRedisResult can be casted to a lot of array types: string[], bool[]... Check its source code.

At the end of the day, it's just about coding an explicit cast:

var result = (string[])lLScript.Evaluate("myDatabaseInformation", "myKey");

  • Thank you very much. Truly the answer wasn't far. – eddy0223 Mar 18 '16 at 20:32
  • @eddy0223 Yeah. We should ask Marc Gravell to know why he decided to implement these operators as *explicit* instead of *implicit*. With implicit operators, you could type the result as `string[]` and you wouldn't need an explicit cast ;P – Matías Fidemraizer Mar 18 '16 at 20:37
