Limit Realm results

Question

How do I limit the amount of objects Realm returns? .findAll returns all rows matching the query and .findFirst returns only the first. But what about something like first 1

Answer 1

I figured out the solution to achieve this after so many days using "between" query as found in the official docs https://realm.io/docs/java/latest

If you want to fetch first N elements, Simply pass the count from and to with field name as below

realm.where(clazz).between("count",0,1000).findAll();

Where,

"count" = Field name (i.e variable name in your pojo)
"0" = Range From
"1000" = Range to

For example: The above query will fetch first 0 to 1000 as RealmResults.

Note: The above solution works only if you have some unique id with row count. In my case I manually inserted row count value before inserting the values into Realm.
