Example

In this simple fragment we create a transaction, retrieve an object store, then count the number of records in the store using count() — when the success handler fires, we log the count value (an integer) to the console.

var transaction = db.transaction(['fThings'], 'readonly');
var objectStore = transaction.objectStore('fThings');
    
var countRequest = objectStore.count();
countRequest.onsuccess = function() {
  console.log(countRequest.result);
}
