ParseQuery

Parse~ ParseQuery

Creates a new parse Parse.Query for the given Parse.Object subclass.

Parse.Query defines a query that is used to fetch Parse.Objects. The most common use case is finding all objects that match a query through the find method. for example, this sample code fetches all objects of class myclass. it calls a different function depending on whether the fetch succeeded or not.

var query = new Parse.Query(myclass);
query.find().then((results) => {
  // results is an array of parse.object.
}).catch((error) =>  {
 // error is an instance of parse.error.
});

a Parse.Query can also be used to retrieve a single object whose id is known, through the get method. for example, this sample code fetches an object of class myclass and id myid. it calls a different function depending on whether the fetch succeeded or not.

var query = new Parse.Query(myclass);
query.get(myid).then((object) => {
    // object is an instance of parse.object.
}).catch((error) =>  {
 // error is an instance of parse.error.
});

a Parse.Query can also be used to count the number of objects that match the query without retrieving all of those objects. for example, this sample code counts the number of objects of the class myclass

var query = new Parse.Query(myclass);
query.count().then((number) => {
    // there are number instances of myclass.
}).catch((error) => {
    // error is an instance of Parse.Error.
});
