Question

My code is:

using (var session = documentStore.OpenSession(databaseName))
{
    var list = session.Query<dynamic>("Raven/DocumentsByEntityName").ToArray();

    foreach (var item in list)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(item);
    }
}

But it does not give me the name of the document. I want to list all of the documents in single database.

Try something like this, it’s a bit more generic and it allows access to the raw documents

using (var session = store.OpenSession())
{
    //Issue a dummy query to make sure the indexing has finished
    var dummyQuery = session.Query<dynamic>("Raven/DocumentsByEntityName")
        .Customize(x => x.WaitForNonStaleResultsAsOfLastWrite())
        .ToList();

    //First get all the document types, i.e. the different entity names
    var docTypes = store.DatabaseCommands.GetTerms("Raven/DocumentsByEntityName", "Tag", "", 128);
    foreach (var type in docTypes)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("\n{0}:", type);
        //Might need to do paging here, can only get at most 1024 docs in 1 go!
        var docs = store.DatabaseCommands.StartsWith(type, 0, 1024).ToList();

    foreach (var doc in docs)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("    {0}: {1}", doc.Key, doc.ToJson());
    }
}

}
