Paginator

Paginator displays data in paged format and provides navigation between pages.

Import#


import { Paginator } from 'primereact/paginator';

Basic#

Paginator is used as a controlled component with first, rows and onPageChange properties to manage the first index and number of records to display per page. Total number of records need to be with totalRecords property. Default template includes a dropdown to change the rows so rowsPerPageOptions is also necessary for the dropdown options.


<Paginator first={first} rows={rows} totalRecords={120} rowsPerPageOptions={[10, 20, 30]} onPageChange={onPageChange} />

Layout#

Order and content of the default UI elements of the paginator is defined with the layout option of the template property. Default token names for the elements are as follows;

FirstPageLink
PrevPageLink
NextPageLink
LastPageLink
PageLinks
RowsPerPageDropdown
CurrentPageReport
JumpToPageInput

<Paginator first={first} rows={10} totalRecords={50} onPageChange={onPageChange} 
    template={{ layout: 'PrevPageLink CurrentPageReport NextPageLink' }} />

Template#

Templating allows overriding the default content of the UI elements by defining callbacks using the element name. The parameters passed to theese callbacks contain properties for binding to your custom elements like the event handler to trigger pagination. Additional leftContent and rightContent properties are available to insert content at both sides of the paginator.

First, previous, next and last page navigators elements with aria-label attributes referring to the aria.firstPageLabel, aria.prevPageLabel, aria.nextPageLabel and aria.lastPageLabelproperties of the locale API respectively.

Page links are also button elements with an aria-label attribute derived from the aria.pageLabel of the locale API. Current page is marked with aria-current set to "page" as well.
