I need to get a count of records for a particular model on App Engine. How does one do it?
I bulk uploaded more than 4000 records but modelname.count() only shows me 1000.
You should use Datastore Statistics:
Query query = new Query("__Stat_Kind__");
query.addFilter("kind_name", FilterOperator.EQUAL, kind);
Entity entityStat = datastore.prepare(query).asSingleEntity();
Long totalEntities = (Long) entityStat.getProperty("count");
Please note that the above does not work on the development Datastore but it works in production (when published).
I see that this is an old post, but I'm adding an answer in benefit of others searching for the same thing.
