.parse_as_rest() returns a Row object with one of the attributes being
"count" (if you submit a query for multiple records and it is successful):
@request.restful()
def api():
response.view = 'generic.' + request.extension
def GET(*args, **vars):
patterns = 'auto'
parser = db.parse_as_rest(patterns, args, vars)
if parser.status == 200:
return dict(content=parser.response, count=parser.get('count'))
else:
raise HTTP(parser.status, parser.error)
...
return locals()
The above uses parser.get('count') rather than parser.count because the
latter would cause an error if there is no "count" returned.
