Valkey native commands

you can directly work with valkey using django's cache object.

most subject discussed in valkey commands also applies here.

>>> from django.core.cache import cache

>>> await cache.aget("foo")

the method names are the same as the sync ones discussed in valkey commands, and the API is almost the same.

the only difference is that the async backend returns a coroutine or async generator depending on the method, and you should await it or iterate over it.

import contextlib
from django.core.cache import cache

async with contextlib.aclosing(cache.aiter_keys("foo*")) as keys:
    async for k in keys:
        print(k)

another thing to notice is that the method names are the same as the sync ones: await get() or get(). but if you want to be explicit the same methods are also available with a a prepended to them: await aget(). this goes for all public methods of the async client.
