Version 43

We needed a leap version to unequivocally signal that it's not just a major version: it's a complete redesign of the legacy code at all levels, usage and API included.

Why 43? Because it's exactly one step beyond "The answer to the ultimate question of life, the Universe, and everything." ๐Ÿ˜‰

Improvements

This version introduces several enhancements, such as new :countish and :keynav_js paginators and improved automation and configuration processes, reducing setup requirements by 99%. The update also includes a simpler API and new interactive development tools, making it a comprehensive upgrade from previous versions.

  • New :countish Paginator
    • Faster than OFFSET and supporting the full UI
  • New Keynav Pagination
    • The pagy-exclusive technique using the fastest keyset pagination alongside all frontend helpers.
  • New interactive dev-tools
    • New PagyWand to integrate the pagy CSS with your app themes.
    • New Pagy AI available right inside your own app.
  • Intelligent automation
  • Simpler API
    • You solely need the pagy method and the @pagy instance to paginate any collection and use any navigation tag and helper.
    • Methods are autoloaded only if used, and consume no memory otherwise.
    • Methods have narrower scopes and can be overridden without deep knowledge.
  • New documentation
    • Very concise, straightforward, and easy to navigate and understand.

<span style="font-size: .65em; vertical-align: middle">๐Ÿ’š</span> Examples

Pagination code
# Include pagy in your code (usually application_controller.rb)
include Pagy::Method

# Offset-based pagination
@pagy, @records = pagy(:offset, Product.all)

# Keyset-based pagination (fastest technique)
@pagy, @records = pagy(:keyset, Product.order(my_order).all)

# Paginate your collection with one of several paginators
@pagy, @records = pagy(...)

See all the available paginators

JSON:API pagination
# JSON:API nested query string. E.g.: ?page[number]=2&page[size]=100
@pagy, @records = pagy(:offset, Product.all, jsonapi: true)
@pagy, @records = pagy(:keyset, Product.order(my_order).all, jsonapi: true)
render json: { links: @pagy.urls_hash, data: @records }
JSON-client pagination
render json: { pagy: @pagy.data_hash, data: @records }
Search server pagination

Available paginators: :elasticsearch_rails, :meilisearch, :searchkick, :typesense_rails

# Extend your models (e.g. application_record.rb)
extend Pagy::Search

# Paginate with pagy:
search           = Product.pagy_search(params[:q])
@pagy, @response = pagy(:a_search_paginator, search)

# Or get pagy from paginated results:
@results = Product.search(params[:q])
@pagy    = pagy(:a_search_paginator, @results)
Calendar pagination

Combine time-range and offset pagination.

(Available time units: year, quarter, month, week, and day)

<img src="assets/images/calendar-app.png" width="450"><br/>

@calendar, @pagy, @records = pagy(:calendar, collection, year: {}, month: {}, offset: {})
<%== @calendar[:year].series_nav(:bootstrap) %>
<%== @calendar[:month].series_nav(:bootstrap) %>
<%== @pagy.info_tag %>
...
<%== @pagy.series_nav(:bootstrap) %>
Server side rendering
series_nav

Default :pagy, :bootstrap and :bulma styles shown.

<img src="assets/images/pagy-series_nav.png" width="310"><br/> <img src="assets/images/bootstrap-series_nav.png" width="255"><br/> <img src="assets/images/bulma-series_nav.png" width="342"><br/>

<!-- Render client side nav bar helpers with different html and styles -->
<%== @pagy.series_nav %> <!-- pagy style -->
<%== @pagy.series_nav(:bootstrap) %>
<%== @pagy.series_nav(:bulma) %>
Client side rendering
# pagy.rb initializer
javascript_dir = Rails.root.join('app/javascripts')
Pagy.sync_javascript(javascript_dir, 'pagy.mjs') if Rails.env.development?
series_nav_js

Faster and responsive

Dynamically fills the container width.

<img src="assets/images/pagy-series_nav_js-7.png" width="312"><br/> <img src="assets/images/pagy-series_nav_js-9.png" width="390"><br/>

<!-- Render client side nav bar helpers with different html and styles -->
<%== @pagy.series_nav_js %> <!-- pagy style -->
<%== @pagy.series_nav_js(:bootstrap) %>
<%== @pagy.series_nav_js(:bulma) %>
input_nav_js

Fastest! Combines navigation and info in minimum space.

<img src="assets/images/pagy-input_nav_js.png" width="229"><br/>

<!-- Render client side nav inout helpers with different html and styles -->
<%== @pagy.input_nav_js %> <!-- pagy style -->
<%== @pagy.input_nav_js(:bootstrap) %>
<%== @pagy.input_nav_js(:bulma) %>

<span style="font-size: .65em; vertical-align: middle">๐Ÿ’š</span> Dev Tools

Integrate pagy with your app's themes interactively (watch demo), and ask specific questions to the Pagy AI right in your app! You need only a single line in your page/layout head to get the Pagy Wand and the Pagy AI:
