Question

From MongoDb documentation: “On a query using skip() and limit(), count ignores these parameters by default. Use count(true) to have it consider the skip and limit values in the calculation.” That’s exactly what I need to count resulted elements for the specific query until it’s over defined limit like 1000, but I do not see any way to do it in c# driver. Count of IMongoCollection and SetCount of IMongoCursor are both parameter-less. Any idea?

Answer 1

Use the Size method instead of Count, as that honors Skip and Limit.

Console.WriteLine(collection.Find(query).SetSkip(0).SetLimit(1).Size());
