Counting the number of elements in array
Just use the length filter on the whole array. It works on more than just strings:
{{ notcount|length }}
This expands on the answer by Denis Bubnov.
I used this to find child values of array elements—namely if there was a anchor field in paragraphs on a Drupal 8 site to build a table of contents.
{% set count = 0 %}
{% for anchor in items %}
{% if anchor.content['#paragraph'].field_anchor_link.0.value %}
{% set count = count + 1 %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% if count > 0 %}
--- build the toc here --
{% endif %}
Best practice of getting length is use length
filter returns the number of items of a sequence or mapping, or the length of a string. For example: {{ notcount | length }}
But you can calculate count of elements in for
loop. For example:
{% set count = 0 %}
{% for nc in notcount %}
{% set count = count + 1 %}
{% endfor %}
{{ count }}
This solution helps if you want to calculate count of elements by condition, for example you have a property name
inside object and you want to calculate count of objects with not empty names:
{% set countNotEmpty = 0 %}
{% for nc in notcount if nc.name %}
{% set countNotEmpty = countNotEmpty + 1 %}
{% endfor %}
{{ countNotEmpty }}
