Jbuilder::Pagination

Jbuilder extension that makes easier to use pagination according to the JSON API conventions.

Requirement

JbuilderPagination relies on a paginated collection with the methods current_page, total_pages, and size, such as are supported by both Kaminari or WillPaginate.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'jbuilder_pagination', require: 'jbuilder/pagination'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jbuilder_pagination

Usage

Kaminari examples

#array
@posts = Kaminari.paginate_array([1, 2, 3]).page(3).per(1)

#active_record
@posts = Post.page(3).per(1)

WillPaginate examples

#array
@posts = [1,2,3].paginate(page: 3, per_page: 1)

#active_record
@posts = Post.page(3).per_page(1)

And then in your *.json.jbuilder

json.links do
  json.pages! @posts, url: "http://example.com/posts", query_parameters: { additional: 'parameters' }
end

# =>
#    "links": {
#      "self": "http://example.com/posts?page[number]=3&page[size]=1&additional=parameters",
#      "first": "http://example.com/posts?page[number]=1&page[size]=1&additional=parameters",
#      "prev": "http://example.com/posts?page[number]=2&page[size]=1&additional=parameters",
#      "next": "http://example.com/posts?page[number]=4&page[size]=1&additional=parameters",
#      "last": "http://example.com/posts?page[number]=13&page[size]=1&additional=parameters"
#    }

The options url and query_parameters are opcionals.

In case there is no pagination at all, links will be omitted.
