SEO friendly Symfony paginator to paginate everything

Generally this bundle is based on Knp Pager component. This component introduces a different way for pagination handling. You can read more about the internal logic on the given documentation link.

Note: Keep knp-components in sync with this bundle. If you want to use older version of KnpPaginatorBundle - use v1.0 tag in the repository which is suitable to paginate ODM mongodb and ORM 2.0 queries

For notes about latest changes please read CHANGELOG, for required changes in your code please read UPGRADE chapter of documentation.

• Knp pager component >=1.1
• KnpPaginatorBundle's master compatible with symfony (>=2.7 versions).
• Twig>=1.5 version is required if you use twig templating engine

• Does not require initializing specific adapters
• Can be customized in any way needed, etc.: pagination view, event subscribers.
• Possibility to add custom filtering, sorting functionality depending on request parameters.
• Separation of concerns, paginator is responsible for generating the pagination view only, pagination view - for representation purposes.

Note: using multiple paginators requires setting the alias in order to keep non conflicting parameters.

• Creating custom pagination subscribers
• Extending pagination class (todo, may require some refactoring)
• Customizing view templates and arguments

Pretty simple with Composer, run:

composer require knplabs/knp-paginator-bundle

// app/AppKernel.php
public function registerBundles()
{
    return array(
        // ...
        new Knp\Bundle\PaginatorBundle\KnpPaginatorBundle(),
        // ...
    );
}

You can configure default query parameter names and templates

knp_paginator:
    page_range: 5                       # number of links showed in the pagination menu (e.g: you have 10 pages, a page_range of 3, on the 5th page you'll see links to page 4, 5, 6)
    default_options:                                 
        page_name: page                 # page query parameter name
        sort_field_name: sort           # sort field query parameter name
        sort_direction_name: direction  # sort direction query parameter name
        distinct: true                  # ensure distinct results, useful when ORM queries are using GROUP BY statements
        filter_field_name: filterField  # filter field query parameter name
        filter_value_name: filterValue  # filter value query parameter name
    template:                                        
        pagination: '@KnpPaginator/Pagination/sliding.html.twig'     # sliding pagination controls template         
        sortable: '@KnpPaginator/Pagination/sortable_link.html.twig' # sort link template                                
        filtration: '@KnpPaginator/Pagination/filtration.html.twig'  # filters template

That could be used out of the box in knp_paginator.template.pagination key:

• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/sliding.html.twig (by default)
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/twitter_bootstrap_v4_pagination.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/twitter_bootstrap_v3_pagination.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/twitter_bootstrap_pagination.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/foundation_v5_pagination.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/bulma_pagination.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/semantic_ui_pagination.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/materialize_pagination.html.twig

That could be used out of the box in knp_paginator.template.sortable key:

• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/sortable_link.html.twig (by default)
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/twitter_bootstrap_v3_sortable_link.html.twig
• @KnpPaginator/Pagination/font_awesome_sortable_link.html.twig

Currently paginator can paginate:

• array
• Doctrine\ORM\Query
• Doctrine\ORM\QueryBuilder
• Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Query\Query
• Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Query\Builder
• Doctrine\ODM\PHPCR\Query\Query
• Doctrine\ODM\PHPCR\Query\Builder\QueryBuilder
• Doctrine\Common\Collection\ArrayCollection - any doctrine relation collection including
• ModelCriteria - Propel ORM query
• array with Solarium_Client and Solarium_Query_Select as elements

// Acme\MainBundle\Controller\ArticleController.php

public function listAction(Request $request)
{
    $em    = $this->get('doctrine.orm.entity_manager');
    $dql   = "SELECT a FROM AcmeMainBundle:Article a";
    $query = $em->createQuery($dql);

    $paginator  = $this->get('knp_paginator');
    $pagination = $paginator->paginate(
        $query, /* query NOT result */
        $request->query->getInt('page', 1)/*page number*/,
        10/*limit per page*/
    );

    // parameters to template
    return $this->render('AcmeMainBundle:Article:list.html.twig', array('pagination' => $pagination));
}

{# total items count #}
<div class="count">
    {{ pagination.getTotalItemCount }}
</div>
<table>
<tr>
{# sorting of properties based on query components #}
    <th>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(pagination, 'Id', 'a.id') }}</th>
    <th{% if pagination.isSorted('a.Title') %} class="sorted"{% endif %}>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(pagination, 'Title', 'a.title') }}</th>
    <th>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(pagination, 'Release', ['a.date', 'a.time']) }}</th>
</tr>

{# table body #}
{% for article in pagination %}
<tr {% if loop.index is odd %}class="color"{% endif %}>
    <td>{{ article.id }}</td>
    <td>{{ article.title }}</td>
    <td>{{ article.date | date('Y-m-d') }}, {{ article.time | date('H:i:s') }}</td>
</tr>
{% endfor %}
</table>
{# display navigation #}
<div class="navigation">
    {{ knp_pagination_render(pagination) }}
</div>

For translating the following text:

• %foo% name with translation key table_header_name. The translation is in the domain messages.
• {0} No author|{1} Author|[2,Inf] Authors with translation key table_header_author. The translation is in the domain messages.

translationCount and translationParameters can be combined.

<table>
    <tr>
{# sorting of properties based on query components #}
       <th>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(pagination, 'Id'|trans({foo:'bar'},'messages'), 'a.id' )|raw }}</th>
       <th{% if pagination.isSorted('a.Title') %} class="sorted"{% endif %}>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(pagination, 'Title', 'a.title')|raw }}</th>
       <th>{{ knp_pagination_sortable(pagination, 'Author'|trans({}, 'messages'), 'a.author' )|raw }}</th>
    </tr>

<!-- Content of the table -->

</table>

You can automatically inject a paginator service into another service by using the knp_paginator.injectable DIC tag. The tag takes one optional argument paginator, which is the ID of the paginator service that should be injected. It defaults to knp_paginator.

The class that receives the KnpPaginator service must implement Knp\Bundle\PaginatorBundle\Definition\PaginatorAwareInterface. If you're too lazy you can also just extend the Knp\Bundle\PaginatorBundle\Definition\PaginatorAware base class.

The knp_paginator service will be created lazily if the package ocramius/proxy-manager is installed.

For more information about lazy services, consult the Symfony documentation on dependency injection.

• Make sure the translator is activated in your symfony config :

framework:
    translator: { fallbacks: ['%locale%'] }

• If your locale is not available, create your own translation file in app/Resources/translations/KnpPaginatorBundle.en.yml (substitute en for your own language code if needed) . Then add these lines:

label_next: Next
label_previous: Previous
