React Use Pagination

This package enables one to paginate through an array of objects.

Installation

yarn add use-pagination-hook

Or

npm i use-pagination-hook

How to use

The use-pagination hook takes two parameters, an array of all items, and a size that dictates how many items are returned

 import React from "react'
 import { usePagination } from 'use-pagination-hook'

 const ExampleComponent = () => {
   const { current, pages, display, next, previous } = usePagination({ items: props.items, size: props.size });

   return (
     <>
       <p>Currently on page {current} of {pages}</p>
       <ul>
        {display.map(row => {
          <li>{row}</li> 
       })}
       </ul>
       <button onClick={next}>Next Page</button>
       <button onClick={previous}>Previous Page</button>
       <p>{count}</p>
     </>
    )
  }

Local testing and yarn link

To locally test the package, do the following:

Let's assume your CRA is "my-app".

Let's also assume they are in one workspace.

workspace
  - use-pagination
  - my-app

a) in hook folder, run

yarn link

b) assuming you have a workspace, create a sample CRA app

npx create-react-app my-app

c) navigate to your CRA app folder

cd my-app

d) run command

 yarn link use-pagination

e) In your CRA app, you can now use the package, as it's linked locally

  import { usePagination } from 'use-pagination';

f) However, this will give you an error due to different copy of React and in CRA app. To counter that let's assume that we have workspace

workspace
  - use-pagination
  - my-app

We navigate to use-pagination and type (this will link the React versions locally).

Please amend the path to your needs.

 npm link ../my-app/node_modules/react

We should be good to go to work locally.
