GQL中如何count

如你所知，GQL中的所有查询都是“select * from"，那么在此基础上，在普通关系数据库中的count语法自然就成了低效的选出全部再count了，

上网看有没有好的解决方案，有人给出google code上的相关优化教程：http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/sharding_counters.html#related

或直接参考这种方法：

"""

You have to flip your thinking when working with a scalable datastore like GAE to do your calculations up front. In this case that means you need to keep counters for each baz and increment them whenever you add a new bar, instead of counting at the time of display.

"""

class CategoryCounter(db.Model):

    category = db.StringProperty()

    count = db.IntegerProperty(default=0)



 then when creating a Bar object, increment the counter

def createNewBar(category_name):

  bar = Bar(...,baz=category_name)



  counter = CategoryCounter.filter('category =',category_name).get()

  if not counter:

    counter = CategoryCounter(category=category_name)

  else:

    counter.count += 1

  bar.put()

  counter.put()



db.run_in_transaction(createNewBar,'asdf')



# now you have an easy way to get the count for any specific category

CategoryCounter.filter('category =',category_name).get().count
