# Pagination

We use often pagination in templates. How do we do that? We have created this demo for pagination. We hope it's useful to you.

# Controllers

Before you can use the paginator in the view, you have to set it in your controller:

package controllers

type PostsController struct {
  web.Controller
}

func (this *PostsController) ListAllPosts() {
    // sets this.Data["paginator"] with the current offset (from the url query param)
    postsPerPage := 20
  	paginator := pagination.SetPaginator(this, postsPerPage, CountPosts())

    // fetch the next 20 posts
    this.Data["posts"] = ListPostsByOffsetAndLimit(paginator.Offset(), postsPerPage)
}

# Views
