How to get count for each type across all indexes

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I'm just getting my feet wet with ES and I'm using the Head Plugin to
examine my logstash messages coming in.

One thing we're interested in is finding the document count for each type.
I figured out how to get all Types:
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_mapping'

But now I want to cycle through all Types and get the total doc count
across all indexes.
I assume it's like:
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_all/[TYPE]/_search'

Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks!

Hey,

have you tried just executing

http://localhost:9200/_all/TYPE/_count - should do what you need, unless I
didnt have enough coffee (simply returns a count instead of search results).
