Counting

The SEARCH.COUNT command returns the number of documents matching a query without retrieving them.

You can use SEARCH.COUNT for analytics, pagination UI (showing “X results found”), or validating queries before retrieving results.

TypeScript

// Count all electronics
await products.count({
  filter: {
    category: "electronics",
  },
});

// Count in-stock items under $100
await products.count({
  filter: {
    inStock: true,
    price: { $lt: 100 },
  },
});

Redis CLI

# Count all electronics
SEARCH.COUNT products '{"category": "electronics"}'

# Count in-stock items under $100
SEARCH.COUNT products '{"inStock": true, "price": {"$lt": 100}}'
