pymongo: Get result count
Goal: Search DB and get results and count of results.
In previous versions there was .count()
find_results = mycol.find({"source": "sensor"})
count_results = find_results.count()
Now, count() has been deprecated and instead there is "collection.count_documents"
Does that mean that to get results and qty of results I need to do two queries?
count_results = mycol.count_documents({"source": "sensor"})
find_results = mycol.find({"source": "sensor"})
mongodb pymongo

Well yes and no. It's deprecated for the very good reason that there are reliability issues, and mostly in order to support transactions. So YES you "should" be using a separate call in order to obtain your count. However NO, you don't actually need to IF you instead have an acceptable result size which could be converted to an Array/List first. Then you can just size the Array/List. For "paging" counts see Get a count of total documents with MongoDB when using limit
