The total number of articles

[wxydejoy]

I want to get the total number of articles on the deployed website. Is there any way?
At present, the known method is to find the number of links on the archive page

emmm
i want to get other people's post number

You can pass the variable to front-end via template engine:

<script>
let total_number_of_articles = {{ site.posts.length }};
</script>

If you'd like to use the value internally, you can use site.posts.length in your theme directly.

If you want to expose the value in your front-end, use the method provided by @stevenjoezhang

You can get it as follows, if you using Hexo API.

const Hexo = require('hexo');
const hexo = new Hexo(process.cwd(), {silent: true});

hexo.init().then(() => {
  hexo.load().then(() => {

    const posts = hexo.locals.get('posts');
    console.log(posts.length);

    const pages = hexo.locals.get('pages');
    console.log(pages.length);
  }
}
