count
Description
The count command returns a single row representing the total number of documents in the current result set. It can optionally store this result in a named keypath for readability using the into keyword.
Syntax
Example
Use case: Count the number of HTTP request logs
We have log entries representing HTTP requests, each with a status_code field. Using count, we can determine the total number of requests that include a status code, optionally saving the result under a custom name for clarity.
Example data
{ "status_code": 200, "path": "/home" },
{ "status_code": 404, "path": "/not-found" },
{ "status_code": 500, "path": "/checkout" }
Example query
Example output
| http_request_count |
|---|
| 3 |
The count command aggregates the number of documents that meet the filter condition and returns the total as a single record. In this case, all three documents contained a status_code.
