JavaScript - simple pagination / pager component example in Vanilla JS
6
points
In this article we are going to show how to create simple pagination component with pure JavaScript.
Let's suppose we have few variables that describe pages:
pageNumber- current page number counted from 1 to up (1, 2, 3, ...),pagesCount- total number of pages,radiusSize- maximal number of buttons visible on both sides of active page button.
DOM API based example
As radius, we understand number of items displayed on left and right site of current page button.
Note: using component, replace
/path/to/page/...with correct url.
// ONLINE-RUNNER:browser;
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
div.pager {
padding: 20px 0;
}
a.link {
padding: 5px 10px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #007bff;
}
a.button {
padding: 5px 10px;
border: 1px solid;
border-radius: 3px;
text-decoration: none;
}
a.button + a.button {
margin-left: 5px;
}
a.button.default {
border-color: #66b0ff;
background-color: white;
color: #007bff;
}
a.button.default:hover {
border-color: #007bff;
background-color: #e0efff;
}
a.button.selected {
border-color: #007bff;
background-color: #007bff;
color: white;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="pager-container"></div>
<script>
function calculateRange(pageNumber, pagesCount, radiusSize) {
var start = pageNumber - radiusSize;
if (start < 1) {
return {
start: 1,
stop: Math.min(2 * radiusSize + 1, pagesCount),
};
}
var stop = pageNumber + radiusSize;
if (stop > pagesCount) {
return {
start: Math.max(1, pagesCount - 2 * radiusSize),
stop: pagesCount,
};
}
return { start, stop };
}
function addButton(parent, style, path, text) {
var button = document.createElement('a');
button.className = style;
button.innerText = text;
button.href = path;
parent.appendChild(button);
};
function addPager(parent, pageNumber, pagesCount, radiusSize) {
var range = calculateRange(pageNumber, pagesCount, radiusSize);
var pager = document.createElement('div');
pager.className = 'pager';
addButton(pager, 'link', '/path/to/page/1', 'First');
for (var i = range.start; i <= range.stop; ++i) {
var style = 'button ' + (i === pageNumber ? 'selected' : 'default');
addButton(pager, style, '/path/to/page/' + i, i);
}
addButton(pager, 'link', '/path/to/page/' + pagesCount, 'Last');
parent.appendChild(pager);
}
// Usage example:
var container = document.querySelector('#pager-container');
addPager(container, 1, 6, 2);
addPager(container, 3, 6, 2);
addPager(container, 4, 6, 2);
addPager(container, 6, 6, 2);
