Is it possible to use 'limit' parameter in paginate() function?
I'm trying this:
$users->where(...)->limit(50)->paginate($page)
...and now, if I have 100 users in the database then the response from paginate function will be all 100 users instead of 50 (or number of users defined with limit parameter).
So, my question is: is it possible to implement limit parameter when I use paginate function?
The limit option allows you to limit the number of rows returned from a query, while offset allows you to omit a specified number of rows before the beginning of the result set. Using both limit and offset skips both rows as well as limit the rows returned.
In your case you can use $articles->links() in your view to generate the pagination navigation buttons. But if you want to manually set the page then you can do this. $articles = Articles::paginate(5, ['*'], 'page', $pageNumber); The default paginate method takes the following parameters.
Pagination works by selecting a specific chunk of results from the database to display to the user. The total number of results is calculated and then split between pages depending on how many results you want to return on a page.
No, it's not possible to limit the query when using pagination.
Query pagination uses skip()
and limit()
internally to select the proper records. Any limit()
applied to the query will be overwritten by the pagination requirements.
If you'd like to paginate a subset of results, you will need to get the results first, and then manually create a paginator for those results.
