I have the Problem, that the knp paginator only works like this:
$em = $this->get('doctrine.orm.entity_manager');
$dql = "SELECT a FROM MainArtBundle:Art a";
$query = $em->createQuery($dql);
$paginator = $this->get('knp_paginator');
$pagination = $paginator->paginate(
$query,
$this->get('request')->query->get('page', 1) /*page number*/,
8 /*limit per page*/
);
But not in this way:
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$entities = $em->getRepository('MainArtBundle:Art')->findAll();
$paginator = $this->get('knp_paginator');
$pagination = $paginator->paginate(
$entities,
$this->get('request')->query->get('page', 1) /*page number*/,
/*limit per page*/
);
Why is it like this? I don't understand.
Here´s my twig call :
<li>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(paginator, 'Oldest', 'a.id', {'direction': 'desc'}) }}</li>
Greetings Michael
findAll()
is compatible with Knp_paginator, you just have to give it to your paginator :
$query = $em->getRepository('Acme\FOOBundle\Entity\BAR')->findAll();
$paginator = $this->get('knp_paginator');
requests = $paginator->paginate(
$query,
$this->get('request')->query->get('page', 1),
5
);
KNP don't support sorting of array elements, as described here.
Better extract and sort data at database level. In your second example you fetch all data from table (and can be bigger), then you ask at the paginator to limit them. This don't perform well. So is better to do this work with a query and let do manage to the paginator element.
Currently KNP Paginator can paginate:
array
Doctrine\ORM\Query
Doctrine\ORM\QueryBuilder
Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Query\Query
Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Query\Builder
Doctrine\Common\Collection\ArrayCollection
- any doctrine relation collection including
ModelCriteria
- Propel ORM querySolarium_Client
and Solarium_Query_Select
as elementsSee the doc fererence for detail
my two cents
FindAll returns an array. The knp paginator requires a doctrine query object.
