README

This package adds the paginate route method to support pagination via custom routes instead of query strings. This also allows for easily translatable pagination routes ex. /news/page/2, /nieuws/pagina/2.

Install

Via Composer

composer require prepr/laravel-pretty-pagination

First register the service provider and facade in your application.

// config/app.php

'providers' => [
    ...
    'Prepr\PaginateRoute\PaginateRouteServiceProvider',
];

'aliases' => [
    ...
    'PaginateRoute' => 'Prepr\PaginateRoute\PaginateRouteFacade',
];

Then register the macros in App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::boot().

// app/Providers/RouteServiceProvider.php

use Prepr\PaginateRoute\PaginateRouteFacade as PaginateRoute;

// ...

public function boot()
{
    PaginateRoute::registerMacros(); // Add this line

    parent::boot();
}

Usage

The paginate route macro will register two routes for you.

// app/Http/routes.php

// Generates /users & /users/page/{page}
Route::paginate('users', 'UsersController@index');

In your route's action you can just use Laravel's regular pagination methods.

// app/Http/Controllers/UsersController.php

public function index()
{
    return view('users.index', ['users' => \App\User::simplePaginate(5)]);
}

If you want to customize or add translations for the "page" url segment, you can publish the language files.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Prepr\PaginateRoute\PaginateRouteServiceProvider"

Generating Url's

Since Laravel's paginator url's will still use a query string, PaginateRoute has it's own url generator and page helper functions.


@if(PaginateRoute::hasPreviousPage())
  <a href="{{ PaginateRoute::previousPageUrl() }}">Previous</a>
@endif

@if(PaginateRoute::hasNextPage($users))
  <a href="{{ PaginateRoute::nextPageUrl($users) }}">Next</a>
@endif

The nextPage functions require the paginator instance as a parameter, so they can determine whether there are any more records.

/**
 * @param  \Illuminate\Contracts\Pagination\Paginator $paginator
 * @return int|null
 */
public function nextPage(Paginator $paginator)

/**
 * @param  \Illuminate\Contracts\Pagination\Paginator $paginator
 * @return bool
 */
public function hasNextPage(Paginator $paginator)

/**
 * @param  \Illuminate\Contracts\Pagination\Paginator $paginator
 * @return string|null
 */
public function nextPageUrl(Paginator $paginator)

/**
 * @return int|null
 */
public function previousPage()

/**
 * @return bool
 */
public function hasPreviousPage()

/**
 * @param  bool $full
 * @return string|null
 */
public function previousPageUrl($full = false)

/**
 * @param int  $page
 * @param bool $full
 * @return string
 */
public function pageUrl($page, $full = false)

If $full is true, the first page will be a fully qualified url. Ex. /users/page/1 instead if just /users (this is the default).

To retrieve the url of a specific page of a paginated route, that isn't the current route, there's the addPageQuery function.

/**
 * @param string $url
 * @param int $page
 * @param bool $full
 * @return string
 */
public function addPageQuery($url, $page, $full = false)

You can also retrieve an array with all available urls. These can be rendered as a plain html list with page numbers. Note that these functions require a LengthAwarePaginator.

/**
 * @param  \Illuminate\Contracts\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator $paginator
 * @param  bool $full
 * @return array
 */
public function allUrls(LengthAwarePaginator $paginator, $full = false)

/**
 * @param  \Illuminate\Contracts\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator $paginator
 * @param  bool $full
 * @param  string $class
 * @param  bool $additionalLinks
 * @return string
 */
public function renderPageList(LengthAwarePaginator $paginator, $full = false, $class = null, $additionalLinks = false)

/**
 * Example : {!! PaginateRoute::renderPageList($items,true,'pagination',true) !!}
 */
<!-- Example output: -->
<ul class="pagination">
    <li><a href="http://example.com/news">1</a></li>
    <li><a href="http://example.com/news/page/2">2</a></li>
    <li class="active"><a href="http://example.com/news/page/3">3</a></li>
    <li><a href="http://example.com/news/page/4">4</a></li>
    <li><a href="http://example.com/news/page/4">&raquo;</a></li>
</ul>

You can render link tags to mark previous and next page for SEO. Note that these functions require a LengthAwarePaginator.

/**
 * @param  \Illuminate\Contracts\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator $paginator
 * @param  bool $full
 * @return string
 */
public function renderRelLinks(LengthAwarePaginator $paginator, $full = false)

<!-- Example output: -->
<link rel="prev" href="http://example.com/news/page/2" />
<link rel="next" href="http://example.com/news/page/4" />

Tests
