Pagination with PageList model

Permalink 4 users found helpful
Working on pagination my PageList model. Currently its pagination the items however I'm having a tough time figuring out the rest of the methods for Prev, Next, Current. All the functions that PaginationHelper does.

On my single_page:
<?php
Loader::model('transactions_list');
$tl = new TransactionsPageList;
if($tl->getSummary()->pages > 1) {
        $tl->getPaginiation();
}
?>
<div class="paging">
   <ul>
      <li><a href="#" class="prev">prev</a></li>
      <li><a href="#"><?php echo $tl->getCurrentPage(); ?></a></li>
      <li>of</li>
      <li>4</li>
      <li><a href="#" class="next">next</a></li>
   </ul>

In my PageList Model:
<?php
   defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die("Access Denied.");
   Loader::model('page_list');
   class TransactionsPageList extends PageList {
      public function __construct(){
         $this->filterByParentID(183);
         $this->sortByDisplayOrder();
         $this->setItemsPerPage(2);
       }
       public function filterBy($filter=null){
          if($filter == null || $filter == 'ALL') {
             return;
          } else {
              $this->filterByAttribute('sectors', '%'.$filter.'%', 'like');
           }

Do I need to use the PaginationHelper? How would I implement it in my current code?

Thanks!

I'm having a little trouble understanding a specific question, but maybe this helps. People typically do paging by passing the page list to the view with
//in controller
$page_list = new PageList();
$page_list->filterByAllKindsOfStuff('blah');
$pages = $page_list->getPage();
$this->set('page_list', $page_list);
$this->set('pages', $pages);

Then in your view you throw this in 
//in view
$page_list->displayPaging();


If you are trying to roll your own a bit
//in controller
$page_list = new PageList();
$page_list->filterByAllKindsOfStuff('blah');
$pages = $page_list->getPage();
// This returns a pagination helper object
$pagination = $page_list->getPagination();
$this->set('page_list', $page_list);
$this->set('pages', $pages);
$this->set('pagination', $page_list);

//in view
<div class="paging">
  <ul>
    // There are other things you can do.
    // See the PaginationHelper class
    <li><?php echo $pagination->getPrevious('< prev') ?></li>
    <li><?php echo $pagination->getCurrentPage() ?></li>
    <li><?php echo $pagination->getNext('next >') ?></li>
  </ul>
</div>
