Count Items Across All Pages
Collect a paginated response before counting items.
Counting is a whole-collection operation. If Restish streams paginated items as
they arrive, a filter can start earlier but it does not necessarily see the
entire logical result at once. --rsh-collect tells Restish to gather the
paginated response before applying the filter.
Example output:
5
Use this pattern for counts, sorts, unique values, or summaries. For
item-by-item processing, skip collect mode and use a record format such as
ndjson; the Pagination guide explains the
tradeoff.
