13 const mongoc_read_prefs_t *read_prefs,
14 bson_t *reply,
15 bson_error_t *error);
16
18 • collection: A mongoc_collection_t.
19
20 • opts: A bson_t, NULL to ignore.
21
22 • read_prefs: A mongoc_read_prefs_t or NULL.
23
24 • reply: A location for an uninitialized bson_t to store the command
25 reply, NULL to ignore. If not NULL, reply will be initialized.
26
27 • error: An optional location for a bson_error_t or NULL.
28
29 opts may be NULL or a BSON document with additional command options:
30
31 • readConcern: Construct a mongoc_read_concern_t and use
32 mongoc_read_concern_append() to add the read concern to opts. See the
33 example code for mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts(). Read concern
34 requires MongoDB 3.2 or later, otherwise an error is returned.
35
36 • sessionId: First, construct a mongoc_client_session_t with
37 mongoc_client_start_session(). You can begin a transaction with
38 mongoc_client_session_start_transaction(), optionally with a
39 mongoc_transaction_opt_t that overrides the options inherited from
40 collection, and use mongoc_client_session_append() to add the session
41 to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_session_t.
42
43 • collation: Configure textual comparisons. See Setting Collation Or‐
44 der, and the MongoDB Manual entry on Collation. Collation requires
45 MongoDB 3.2 or later, otherwise an error is returned.
46
47 • serverId: To target a specific server, include an int32 "serverId"
48 field. Obtain the id by calling mongoc_client_select_server(), then
49 mongoc_server_description_id() on its return value.
50
51 • skip: An int specifying how many documents matching the query should
52 be skipped before counting.
53
54 • limit: An int specifying the maximum number of documents to count.
55
56 • comment: A bson_value_t specifying the comment to attach to this com‐
57 mand. The comment will appear in log messages, profiler output, and
58 currentOp output. Requires MongoDB 4.4 or later.
59
60 For a list of all options, see the MongoDB Manual entry on the count
61 command.
62
64 This functions executes a count query on collection. In contrast with
65 mongoc_collection_count_documents(), the count returned is not guaran‐
66 teed to be accurate.
67
68 This function is considered a retryable read operation. Upon a tran‐
69 sient error (a network error, errors due to replica set failover, etc.)
70 the operation is safely retried once. If retryreads is false in the
71 URI (see mongoc_uri_t) the retry behavior does not apply.
72
73 Behavior
74 This method is implemented using the count command. Due to an oversight
75 in versions 5.0.0-5.0.8 of MongoDB, the count command was not included
76 in version "1" of the Stable API. Applications using this method with
77 the Stable API are recommended to upgrade their server version to
78 5.0.9+ or disable strict mode (via :symbol:`mongoc_server_api_strict())
79 to avoid encountering errors.
80
82 Errors are propagated via the error parameter.
83
85 -1 on failure, otherwise the number of documents counted.
