I have a view that shows a list of nodes and has a contextual filter. If the number of nodes shown is only 1 then I want to redirect to that node page instead of showing the view. Can I do that in views or do I have to code it?

I don't think Views does anything like that by default, but a quick...
if (count($view->result)==1) {
drupal_goto('node/' . $view->result[0]->nid);
}
...at the beginning of a display output template for the view in question should do it for you.
Or better yet, per @MPD...
function MOTOMODULE_views_pre_render(&$view) {
if ($view->name=='JUSTONEPLEASE' && count($view->result)==1) {
drupal_goto('node/' . $view->result[0]->nid);
}
// any other pre_render()ing here
}

great idea. I wonder if I could use a views_php field for that as well.– uweCommented Jul 20, 2012 at 19:41

Dunno :) Check it out and let us know. I tend to think if it works it to be a matter of personal preference; I like to use templates so I can quickly look at them without going into UIs and such and thus I shy away from php fields that are in the DB. Commented Jul 20, 2012 at 19:47

D'oh! I keep on forgetting about that bad boy. Definitely the right call. Commented Jul 21, 2012 at 1:27
