Pagination in Laravel

by avinash 21. April 2016 Intermediate, Laravel 5

Hello everyone, welcome to justlaravel.com. Here we ‘ll see, how easy is pagination in laravel, in the previous post we saw about routing in laravel, here pagination is much more simpler than routing.

Working Demo Project on Github

In the last post, we just showed all the data from the database, here we ‘ll paginate that data by limiting 5 results per page.

We ‘ll take some code from the last post and edit it here, please check the previous post for reference,

Routing

Route for our controller will be the same as in the previous post,

Route::get ( '/callControllerDb', 'IndexController@getFromDb');

Controller logic

Controller logic will be slightly modified, we call paginate function here,

public function getFromDb() {
        $users = User::paginate(5);
        return view('sample')->withDetails($users);
        
    }

View for rendering pagination

In view file, sample.blade.php we render the paginate function which we used in the controller,

{!! $details->render() !!}

the above line of code renders the pagination, we can place that line in sample.blade.php where ever we want our results to be paginated.

Complete sample.blade.php file will be as follows,

                </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
                @foreach($details as $user)
                <tr>
                    <td>{{$user->name}}</td>
                    <td>{{$user->email}}</td>
                </tr>
                @endforeach

            </tbody>
