Laravel provides pagination for Eloquent ,
but Sometimes we have to do pagination in Laravel on arrays or collection,
we will see how to do Laravel manual pagination.
I’ll use LengthAwarePaginator class
let us start
Controller – app/Http/Controller/HomeController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator;
use App\Http\Requests;
class HomeController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
$data = [
'example 1',
'example 2',
'example 3',
'example 4',
'example 5',
'example 6',
'example 7',
'example 8',
'example 9',
'example 10'
];
$data = $this->paginate($data);
return view('welcome', ['data' => $data]);
}
public function paginate($items, $perPage = 3, )
{
// Get current page form url e.x. &page=1
$page = LengthAwarePaginator::resolveCurrentPage() ?: 1;
// Get total
$total = count($items);
$currentpage = $page;
// Slice the collection to get the products to display in current page
$offset = ($currentpage * $perPage) - $perPage ;
$itemstoshow = array_slice($items , $offset , $perPage);
// Create our paginator
$paginatedItems = new LengthAwarePaginator($itemstoshow ,$total ,$perPage);
// Set Url
$paginatedItems->setPath(request()->url());
return $paginatedItems;
}
}
view file
resources/views/welcome.blade.php
<h1>Data List</h1>
<ul>
@foreach ($data as $item)
<li> {{ $item }} </li>
@endforeach
</ul>
<div>
{{ $data->links() }}
</div>
