:offset


:offset is a generic OFFSET paginator usable with ORM collections or regular Array objects.

It uses the complete OFFSET pagination technique, which triggers two SQL queries per request:

  • a COUNT query to get the count
  • an OFFSET + LIMIT query to get the records

It fully supports all the helpers and navigators.

Controller
@pagy, @records = pagy(:offset, collection, **options)
  • @pagy is the pagination instance. It provides the readers and the helpers to use in your code.
  • @records represents the paginated collection of records for the page (lazy-loaded records).
count_over: true
Use this option with GROUP BY collections to calculate the total number of results using COUNT(*) OVER ().
raise_range_error: true
Enable the Pagy::RangeError (which is otherwise rescued to an empty page by default).
limit: 10
Specifies the number of items per page (default: 20)
client_max_limit: 1_000

Set the maximum :limit that the client is allowed to request. Higher requested :limits are silently capped.

IMPORTANT If falsey, the client cannot request any :limit.

page: force_page
Set it only to force the current :page. (It is set automatically from the request param).
request: request || hash

Pagy tries to find the Rake::Request at self.request. Set it only when it's not directly available in your code (e.g., Hanami, standalone app, test,...). For example:

hash_request = { base_url: 'http://www.example.com',
                 path:     '/path',
                 params:   { 'param1' => 1234 }, # The string-keyed params hash from the request
                 cookie:   'xyz' }               # The 'pagy' cookie, only for keynav
jsonapi: true
Enables JSON:API-compliant URLs with nested query string (e.g., ?page[number]=2&page[size]=100).
root_key: 'my_root'
Set it to enable nested URLs with nested query string ?my_root[page]=2&my_root[limit]=100)). Use it to handle multiple pagination objects in the same request.
page_key: 'my_page'
Set it to change the key string used for the :page in URLs (default 'page').
limit_key: 'my_limit'
Set it to change the key string used for the :limit in URLs (default 'limit').
