This component is used to handle automatic model data pagination. The primary way to use this component is to call the paginate() method. There is a convenience wrapper on Controller as well.
You configure pagination when calling paginate(). See that method for more details.

implementedEvents(): array<string, mixed>
Events supported by this component.
Uses Conventions to map controller events to standard component callback method names. By defining one of the callback methods a component is assumed to be interested in the related event.
Override this method if you need to add non-conventional event listeners. Or if you want components to listen to non-standard events.

Implement this method to avoid having to overwrite the constructor and call parent.

$context optional Additional log data relevant to this message.
bool
mergeOptions(string $alias, array<string, mixed> $settings): array<string, mixed>
Merges the various options that Pagination uses. Pulls settings together from the following places:
The result of this method is the aggregate of all the option sets combined together. You can change config value allowedParameters
to modify which options/values can be set using request parameters.
string
$alias Model alias being paginated, if the general settings has a key with this value that key's settings will be used for pagination instead of the general ones.
array<string, mixed>
$settings The settings to merge with the request data.
array<string, mixed>
paginate(Cake\Datasource\RepositoryInterfaceCake\Datasource\QueryInterface $object, array<string, mixed> $settings = []): Cake\Datasource\ResultSetInterface
Handles automatic pagination of model records.
When calling paginate()
you can use the $settings parameter to pass in pagination settings. These settings are used to build the queries made and control other pagination settings.
If your settings contain a key with the current table's alias. The data inside that key will be used. Otherwise, the top level configuration will be used.
$settings = [ 'limit' => 20, 'maxLimit' => 100 ]; $results = $paginator->paginate($table, $settings);
The above settings will be used to paginate any Table. You can configure Table specific settings by keying the settings with the Table alias.
$settings = [ 'Articles' => [ 'limit' => 20, 'maxLimit' => 100 ], 'Comments' => [ ... ] ]; $results = $paginator->paginate($table, $settings);
This would allow you to have different pagination settings for Articles
and Comments
tables.
By default CakePHP will automatically allow sorting on any column on the table object being paginated. Often times you will want to allow sorting on either associated columns or calculated fields. In these cases you will need to define an allowed list of fields you wish to allow sorting on. You can define the allowed fields in the $settings
parameter:
$settings = [ 'Articles' => [ 'finder' => 'custom', 'sortableFields' => ['title', 'author_id', 'comment_count'], ] ];
Passing an empty array as allowed list disallows sorting altogether.
You can paginate with any find type defined on your table using the finder
option.
$settings = [ 'Articles' => [ 'finder' => 'popular' ] ]; $results = $paginator->paginate($table, $settings);
Would paginate using the find('popular')
method.
You can also pass an already created instance of a query to this method:
$query = $this->Articles->find('popular')->matching('Tags', function ($q) { return $q->where(['name' => 'CakePHP']) }); $results = $paginator->paginate($query);
By using request parameter scopes you can paginate multiple queries in the same controller action:
$articles = $paginator->paginate($articlesQuery, ['scope' => 'articles']); $tags = $paginator->paginate($tagsQuery, ['scope' => 'tags']);
Each of the above queries will use different query string parameter sets for pagination data. An example URL paginating both results would be:
/dashboard?articles[page]=1&tags[page]=2
