Usage

First, you have to install the package:

npm install @aboutbits/react-pagination

Second, you can make use of the useQueryAndPagination hook. This package implements 3 versions of this hook:

  • In Memory: Use this hook where you don't want to modify browser history. e.g. Dialogs
  • React Router: Use this hook if you want to keep track of the state in the URL and your project is using React Router.
  • NextJS Router: Use this hook if you want to keep track of the state in the URL and your project is using NextJS.

useQueryAndPagination

This hook supports the combination of query parameters and pagination and manages the state of the query parameter values and the pagination values.

The hook supports following configuration parameter object:

value type default description
indexType IndexType IndexType.ZERO_BASED It defines whether the pagination is zero or one based.
pageSize number 15 Page size of the pagination.
defaultQueryParameters/Record<string, string> {} It defines the default value for each query parameter. This is used to remove a query parameter from the URL and also to clear the query.

The hook returns the following object:

value type description
queryParameters object values of your query parameters
page number value of the current page
size number max elements in a single page
actions object object with 3 functions: updateQuery, setPage, clear

Example usage with NextJS

import { useQueryAndPagination } from '@aboutbits/react-pagination/dist/nextRouterPagination'

const users = [
    'Alex', 'Simon', 'Natan', 'Nadia', 'Moritz', 'Marie'
]

function UserList() {
    const { page, size, queryParameters, actions } = useQueryAndPagination({pageSize: 2})

    return (
        <div>
            <input onChange={(value) => actions.updateQuery({search: value})}/>
            <button onClick={() => actions.clear()}>Clear Input</button>
            <select onSelect={(value) => actions.setPage(value)}>
                <option value={0}>First Page</option>
                <option value={1}>Second Page</option>
            </select>

            <ul>
                {users.filter(user => user.startsWith(queryParameters.search))
                    .slice(page, page + size)
                    .map(user => <li>{user}</li>)}
            </ul>
        </div>
    )
}
