infinite_page

Installation

• Please install the {will_paginate plugin}[http://github.com/mislav/will_paginate/] before proceeding.
• then:

  script/plugin install git://github.com/Ouziel/infinite_page.git

Instructions

Infinite Page is used exactly like wil_paginate plugin but make sure of the following:

• Obviously infinite_page helper method should be used instead of will_paginate
• Infinite page parts (each part is one page in classic pagination) should be placed in a partial
• infinite_page call should be included in this partial
• in your controller,
  • XHR request: render only this partial
  • other requests: render whole page

Parameters

infinite_page take two parameters :

• +collection = nil+:: a WillPaginate:Collection return by paginate function
• +options = {}+:: see Options paragraph

Options

Most will_paginate and remote_function options are available along with infinite_page’s 2 additional options. will_paginate options are used for classic pagination rendered inside <noscript> tag. remote_function options are used for next page XHR loading. The most important option is +:update+. It indicates the DOM element ID that contains the partial. :url and :render options are automatically set by infinite_page. Please refer to will_paginate and remote_function references.
