PHP Pagination

Pagination is a simple package that can generate HTML to navigate between listing pages.

It takes as parameter values the type of navigation to generate and the total number of entries in the listing.

The class generates HTML with links to allow the user to click and go to the other listing pages considering the current listing page number.

The class's navigation can be either a list of links or just a group of links pointing to each listing page.

Developers can configure the presentation of the navigation using custom CSS styles or bootstrap pagination.

Installation

Installation is super-easy via Composer:

composer require peterujah/pagination

USAGES

Pagination can be used as an HTML hyperlink or HTML unordered list

 use Peterujah\NanoBlock\Pagination;
 $paging = new Pagination($rowCount, Pagination::LIST);
 $paging = new Pagination($rowCount, Pagination::LINK);

 $paging->setLimit(20);
 $paging->setCurrentPage($_GET["page"]??1)->show();

 $paging = new Pagination(100, Pagination::LIST);
 $paging->setLimit(20);
 $html = $paging->setCurrentPage($_GET["page"]??1)->get();
