Deleting a Counter

void Delete(string counterName);

• Flow:

  • Open a session
  • Create an instance of CountersFor.
    • Either pass CountersFor an explicit document ID, -or-
    • Pass it an entity tracked by the session, e.g. a document object returned from session.query or from session.Load.
  • Execute CountersFor.Delete
  • Execute session.SaveChanges for the changes to take effect

• Note:

  • A Counter you deleted will be removed only after the execution of SaveChanges().
  • Deleting a document deletes its Counters as well.
  • Delete will not generate an error if the Counter doesn't exist.

// 1. Open a session
using (var session = docStore.OpenSession())
{
    // 2. pass CountersFor's constructor a document ID  
    var documentCounters = session.CountersFor("products/1-C");

    // 3. Delete the "ProductLikes" Counter
    documentCounters.Delete("ProductLikes");

    // 4. Save changes to the session
    session.SaveChanges();
