c# - Counts in Breeze.js -

i have complex query returns item counts. if run query on client, return objects, or there way return item counts without sending object array in payload? tried doing like

var query = breeze.entityquery.from('items').inlinecount(true); 

but still pulls records down. solutions?

i don't know if answers question, need query records in order know how many there (to knowledge, there may more efficient way tie breeze directly sql command way on head) -

var query = breeze.entityquery.from('items')     .take(0)     .inlinecount(true); 

edited answer - return no objects , count.
