MONGOC_COLLECT...DOCUMENT_COUNT(3) libmongocMONGOC_COLLECT...DOCUMENT_COUNT(3)

SYNOPSIS
	  int64_t
	  mongoc_collection_estimated_document_count (mongoc_collection_t *collection,
						      const bson_t *opts,
						      const mongoc_read_prefs_t	*read_prefs,
						      bson_t *reply,
						      bson_error_t *error);

PARAMETERS
        collection: A mongoc_collection_t.

        opts: A bson_t, NULL to ignore.

        read_prefs: A mongoc_read_prefs_t or NULL.

        reply:	 A  maybe-NULL pointer to overwritable storage for a bson_t to
	 contain the results.

        error:	An optional location for a bson_error_t	or NULL.

       opts may	be NULL	or a BSON document with	additional command options:

        readConcern:	 Construct    a	   mongoc_read_concern_t    and	   use
	 mongoc_read_concern_append() to add the read concern to opts. See the
	 example code for mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts(). Read concern
	 requires MongoDB 3.2 or later,	otherwise an error is returned.

        sessionId:    First,	construct   a	mongoc_client_session_t	  with
	 mongoc_client_start_session().	 You  can  begin  a  transaction  with
	 mongoc_client_session_start_transaction(),    optionally    with    a
	 mongoc_transaction_opt_t that overrides the  options  inherited  from
	 collection, and use mongoc_client_session_append() to add the session
	 to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_session_t.

        collation:  Configure	textual	comparisons. See Setting Collation Or-
	 der, and the MongoDB Manual entry on  Collation.  Collation  requires
	 MongoDB 3.2 or	later, otherwise an error is returned.

        serverId:  To	target	a specific server, include an int32 "serverId"
	 field.	Obtain the id by calling  mongoc_client_select_server(),  then
	 mongoc_server_description_id()	on its return value.

        skip:	An int specifying how many documents matching the query	should
	 be skipped before counting.

        limit:	An int specifying the maximum number of	documents to count.

        comment: A bson_value_t specifying the	comment	to attach to this com-
	 mand. The comment will	appear in log messages,	profiler  output,  and
	 currentOp output. Requires MongoDB 4.4	or later.

       For  a  list  of	all options, see the MongoDB Manual entry on the count
       command.

DESCRIPTION
       This functions executes a count query on	collection. In	contrast  with
       mongoc_collection_count_documents(),  the count returned	is not guaran-
       teed to be accurate.

       This function is	considered a retryable read operation.	Upon  a	 tran-
       sient error (a network error, errors due	to replica set failover, etc.)
       the  operation  is  safely retried once.	 If retryreads is false	in the
       URI (see	mongoc_uri_t) the retry	behavior does not apply.

   Behavior
       This method is implemented using	the count command. Due to an oversight
       in versions 5.0.0-5.0.8 of MongoDB, the count command was not  included
       in  version  "1"	of the Stable API. Applications	using this method with
       the Stable API are recommended  to  upgrade  their  server  version  to
       5.0.9+ or disable strict	mode (via :symbol:`mongoc_server_api_strict())
       to avoid	encountering errors.

ERRORS
       Errors are propagated via the error parameter.

RETURNS
       -1 on failure, otherwise	the number of documents	counted.

EXAMPLE
	  #include <bson/bson.h>
	  #include <mongoc/mongoc.h>
	  #include <stdio.h>

	  static void
	  print_count (mongoc_collection_t *collection,	bson_t *query)
	  {
	     bson_error_t error;
	     int64_t count;
	     bson_t* opts = BCON_NEW ("skip", BCON_INT64(5));

	     count = mongoc_collection_estimated_document_count	(
		collection, opts, NULL,	NULL, &error);
	     bson_destroy (opts);

	     if	(count < 0) {
		fprintf	(stderr, "Count	failed:	%s\n", error.message);
	     } else {
		printf ("%" PRId64 " documents counted.\n", count);
	     }
	  }
