README

Pagination is a simple package that can generate HTML to navigate between listing pages.

It takes as parameter values the type of navigation to generate and the total number of entries in the listing.

The class generates HTML with links to allow the user to click and go to the other listing pages considering the current listing page number.

The class's navigation can be either a list of links or just a group of links pointing to each listing page.

Developers can configure the presentation of the navigation using custom CSS styles or bootstrap pagination.

Installation

Installation is super-easy via Composer:

composer require peterujah/pagination

USAGES

 $paging->setLimit(20);
 $paging->setCurrentPage($_GET["page"]??1)->show();

 $paging = new Pagination(100, Pagination::LIST);
 $paging->setLimit(20);

Methods

Full usage example

Example: Specify the total number of rows in your table findTotalUsers :(int), then select only the number of items to show per page findUsers(startOffset, limitPerPage)

use Peterujah\NanoBlock\Pagination;
// Configure page limit
$queryLimit = 30;
$queryPage = $_GET["n"]??1;
$queryStart = ($queryPage - 1) * $queryLimit;

// Query your database table
$users = (object) array(
    "users" => $conn->findUsers($queryStart, $queryLimit),
    "rowCount" => $conn->findTotalUsers()
);

// Initialize Pagination
$paging = new Pagination($users->rowCount, Pagination::LIST);
$paging->setLimit($queryLimit);
$paging->setCurrentPage($queryPage);

// Display your contents
foreach($users->users as $row){
    echo "<div>{$row->userFullname}</div>";
}
// Add pagination buttons
echo "<nav aria-label='Page navigation'>";
echo $paging->get();
echo "</nav>";
