I'm sorry, this li3 package isn't still maintained. If someone wants to take the lead, just ping me.

Lithium doesn't suck. This is a fact. But hey, what's about pagination ? Not natively included in the framework, all the existing plugins are just wrong. Pagination is a really common thing : we, developers, have to paginate everything, everytime.

It has to be simple. And you know what ? With li3_pagination, it is.

Install

The easiest way to install li3_pagination is to use composer, adding this lines in your composer.json file:

{
	"require" : {
		"scharrier/li3_pagination" : "dev-master"
	}
}

Tell composer to install it :

composer install

And finally, load the library:

// config/bootstrap/libraries.php
Libraries::add('li3_pagination') ;

Using li3_pagination

In your model, just use the good trait :

class MyModel extends \lithium\data\Model {

	use \li3_pagination\extensions\data\Paginable ;

}

The trait add a method paginate() to your model. Now, call it directly from your controller instead of a standard find() :

public function index() {
	$records = Records::paginate($this->request, [
		'limit' => 20,
		'order' => ['field' => 'asc'],
		'conditions' => [
			'your' => ['custom' => 'conditions']
		]
	]);
}

And finally, just call paginate() :

$this->pagination->paginate() ;

Yep. That's all.
