Express Handlebars Paginate Helper with Twitter Bootstrap Enabled

I have created this template as I wanted to have a paginate template that would work on the fly. I don't want to make our own html for that and can be used as a helper for express handlebars. I hope this would be useful for others as well.

Install

npm install express-handlebars-paginate

Usage

/* ... */

var paginateHelper = require('express-handlebars-paginate');
//Register Helper
Handlebars.registerHelper('paginate', paginate);

With Handlebars

server.js

/* ... */
Handlebars.registerHelper('paginate', paginate);

With Express Handlebars

/* ... */
hbs.handlebars.registerHelper('paginateHelper', paginateHelper.createPagination);

Send the pagination object in your response or express controller Example:

res.render('renderViewHTML', { pagination: { page: currentPage, limit:PageLimit,totalRows: TotalNoOfROWS }});

Query Parameter : Allows to send query parameters to paginatin

res.render('renderViewHTML', { pagination: { page: currentPage, limit:PageLimit,totalRows: TotalNoOfROWS, queryParams: object }});

{{{paginateHelper pagination}}}
