How to check if used paginate in laravel

Question

I have a custom view and in some functions, I used paginate and other functions I don't use paginate. now how can I check if I used paginate or not ?

@if($products->links())

   {{$products->links()}}

@endif // not work 

of course that I know I can use a variable as true false to will check it, But is there any native function to check it ?

This works perfectly. Check if $products is an instance of Illuminate\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator then display the pagination links.

@if($products instanceof \Illuminate\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator )

   {{$products->links()}}

@endif
