PhpOrient - dbSize()

This method returns the size of the database.

Sizing Databases

There are three methods available to you in counting or sizing databases. This method returns the size of the database, dbCountRecords() returns the number of records in the database, and dataClusterCount() the number of records in a cluster.

Syntax

$client->dbSize()

Example

For instance, you might use this method in conjunction with unit testing, especially after performing a restore operation on a new server. That is, a quick way to determine whether the restore process properly executed is to check whether the database contains records.

// TEST DATABASE RESTORE
function testRestore($client, $user, $password, $databaseName){

    // LOG OPERATION
    echo "Checking Database: $databaseName";

    // TEST DATABASE EXISTENCE
    assert($client->dbExists($databaseName));

    // TEST THAT DATABASE CONTAINS RECORDS
    $client->dbOpen($databaseName, $user, $password);
    assert($client->dbSize() > 0);
}
