``object_list``
===============

Summary
-------

.. versionadded:: 6.0.7

``object_list`` lists objects in database. Object information is taken
from metadata in database. ``object_list`` doesn't open any
objects. So ``object_list`` is a light command for database that has
many tables and/or columns.

Normally, :doc:`schema` is a useful command than
``object_list``. Because :doc:`schema` returns more information than
``object_list``.

Syntax
------

This command takes no parameters::

  object_list

Usage
-----

Here is an example schema to show example output:

.. groonga-command
.. include:: ../../example/reference/commands/object_list/sample.log
.. table_create Memos TABLE_HASH_KEY ShortText
.. column_create Memos content COLUMN_SCALAR Text
..
.. table_create Terms TABLE_PAT_KEY ShortText \
..   --default_tokenizer TokenBigram \

There is no required parameter.

Optional parameters
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

There is no optional parameter.

Return value
------------

``object_list`` command returns a list of object information in the
database::

  [HEADER, OBJECTS]

``HEADER``
^^^^^^^^^^

See :doc:`/reference/command/output_format` about ``HEADER``.

``OBJECTS``
^^^^^^^^^^^

``OBJECTS`` are pairs of object name and object details::

  {
    "OBJECT_1": OBJECT_1,
    "OBJECT_2": OBJECT_2,
    ...,
    "OBJECT_n": OBJECT_n,
  }

Each ``OBJECT`` consists of common properties and object type specific
properties.

``OBJECT`` (common properties)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Here are common properties::

  {
    "id":         ID,
    "name":       NAME,
    "opened":     OPENED,
    "value_size": N_BYTES,
    "n_elements": N_ELEMENTS,
    "type":       OBJECT_TYPE,
    "flags":      FLAGS,
    "path":       PATH
  }

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1

   * - Name
     - Description
   * - ``id``
     - The ID of the object.
   * - ``name``
     - The name of the object.
   * - ``opened``
     - Whether the object is opened or not. It's ``true`` or
       ``false``.  If the object is opened, this value is
       ``true``. Otherwise, this value is ``false``.
   * - ``value_size``
     - The number of bytes of the metadata. It's an integer.

       It's appeared only when the metadata are broken. If this
       property is appeared, ``type``, ``n_elements``, ``flags`` and
       ``path`` aren't appeared. Because they can't be retrieved from
       broken metadata.
   * - ``n_elements``
     - The number of internal elements in the metadata. It's an
       integer.
   * - ``type``
     - The type of the object. See
       :ref:`object-list-return-value-object-type` for details.
   * - ``flags``
     - The flags of the object. See
       :ref:`object-list-return-value-flags` for details.
   * - ``path``
     - The path that contains data of the object. It's ``null`` for
       objects that doesn't have data. For example, command object
       doesn't have data.

.. _object-list-return-value-object-type:

     - Description
   * - ``id``
     - The ID of the type.
   * - ``name``
     - The name of the type. For example, :ref:`table-hash-key` is
       ``"table:hash_key"``, :doc:`/reference/columns/vector` is
       ``"column:var_size"`` and :doc:`/reference/columns/index` is
       ``"column:index"``.
