[[cat-indices]]
== cat indices
The `indices` command provides a cross-section of each index. This
information *spans nodes*. For example:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET /_cat/indices/twi*?v&s=index
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
// TEST[setup:huge_twitter]
// TEST[s/^/PUT twitter2\n{"settings": {"number_of_replicas": 0}}\n/]
Might respond with:
[source,txt]
--------------------------------------------------
health status index uuid pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size
yellow open twitter u8FNjxh8Rfy_awN11oDKYQ 1 1 1200 0 88.1kb 88.1kb
green open twitter2 nYFWZEO7TUiOjLQXBaYJpA 5 0 0 0 260b 260b
--------------------------------------------------
// TESTRESPONSE[s/\d+(\.\d+)?[tgmk]?b/\\d+(\\.\\d+)?[tgmk]?b/]
// TESTRESPONSE[s/u8FNjxh8Rfy_awN11oDKYQ|nYFWZEO7TUiOjLQXBaYJpA/.+/ _cat]
We can tell quickly how many shards make up an index, the number of
docs, deleted docs, primary store size, and total store size (all shards including replicas).
All these exposed metrics come directly from Lucene APIs.
*Notes:*
1. As the number of documents and deleted documents shown in this are at the lucene level,
it includes all the hidden documents (e.g. from nested documents) as well.
2. To get actual count of documents at the elasticsearch level, the recommended way
is to use either the <<cat-count>> or the <<search-count>>

[[pri-flag]]
=== Primaries
The index stats by default will show them for all of an index's
shards, including replicas. A `pri` flag can be supplied to enable
the view of relevant stats in the context of only the primaries.
