IDBObjectStore.count()
The count()
method of the IDBObjectStore
interface returns an IDBRequest
object, and, in a separate thread, returns the total number of records that match the provided key or IDBKeyRange
. If no arguments are provided, it returns the total number of records in the store.
Syntax
var request = ObjectStore.count(optionalKeyRange);
Parameters
- optionalKeyRange
- A key or
IDBKeyRange
object that specifies a range of records you want to count.
Returns
An IDBRequest
object on which subsequent events related to this operation are fired.
Exceptions
This method may raise a DOMException
of one of the following types:
Exception | Description |

InvalidStateError |
This IDBObjectStore has been deleted. |

Example
In this simple fragment we create a transaction, retrieve an object store, then count the number of records in the store using count()
— when the success handler fires, we log the count value (an integer) to the console.
var transaction = db.transaction(['fThings'], 'readonly'); var objectStore = transaction.objectStore('fThings'); var countRequest = objectStore.count(); countRequest.onsuccess = function() { console.log(countRequest.result); }
