Digg Style Pagination

The existing pagination class is sufficient, however, I wanted to produce digg-style pagination.
See here for an example of what I mean - http://www.strangerstudios.com/sandbox/pagination/diggstyle.php. A lot of the updated code has been taken from the script provided there. However, some other improvements/alterations have also been made. Basically this is a mish-mash between the CI_Pagination library and the code found at the above link.
Benefits
- ability to let the user control how many records per page they would like to see. The url's for this are in the form of /controller/function/perpage/page. E.g. /controller/function/10/2 means show 10 records per page, and show the second page. Therefore you would be getting records 11- 20. Make sense?
- pages are in terms of page numbers (e.g. /view/10/2 means page 2 rather than offset of 2 which is more logical to me)
- if there are 100 pages (for example) rather than showing only a few pages either side of this in the pagination, digg-style will show a few pages either side as well as the first couple of pages and the last couple of pages. I think this increases usability.
- i think it looks better :)
I have only overwritten the existing CI_Pagination class. This is a bit lazy but if you want to do the right thing you should probably rename it and call it as a custom-made library. This is my first library and I am not a guru PHP coder so there may well be something which can be optimised further or some minor bugs. Test it thoroughly before using in anything critical.
Ok first of all, the updated /system/libraries/Pagination.php file.

Secondly, a new pagination plugin to keep our controller files a bit cleaner So, make a new file here /system/plugins/pagination_pi.php
<?php
/**
* Initalises pagination config settings and returns the create_links string.
*
* @param unknown_type $cur_page_seg
* @param unknown_type $total_rows
* @param unknown_type $per_page_val
* @param unknown_type $per_page_seg
* @param unknown_type $pbase_url
* @return string
*/
function init_paginate ($cur_page_seg, $total_rows, $per_page_val, $per_page_seg, $pbase_url)
{
$obj =& get_instance();
//load relevant libraries
$obj->load->library('pagination');
//pagination setup
//echo $per_page_val;
$pbase_url = $pbase_url."/".$per_page_val;
$config['base_url'] = $pbase_url;
$config['total_rows'] = $total_rows;
$config['per_page'] = $per_page_val;
$config['uri_segment'] = $cur_page_seg;
//pagination initialization
$obj->pagination->initialize($config);
return $obj->pagination->create_links();
// end paging
}
/**

* @return unknown

function validate_per_page($per_page_val, $per_page_seg)
{
$obj =& get_instance();
//use per page if set from the uri, otherwise use default value set in controller
$per_page = $obj->uri->segment($per_page_seg, $per_page_val);
//security check - ensure value is numeric
if (is_numeric($per_page)) : $per_page=$per_page; else: $per_page = $per_page_val; endif;

*
* @param unknown_type $cur_page_seg
* @param unknown_type $per_page_val
* @return unknown
*/
function get_offset($cur_page_seg, $per_page_val)
{
$obj =& get_instance();
//determine offset - per_page_val has already been validated
$page = 1;
if ($obj->uri->segment($cur_page_seg, 0)) : $page = $obj->uri->segment($cur_page_seg, 0); endif;
if ( $page == 1): $offset = 0; else : $offset = ($page - 1) * $per_page_val; endif;
return $offset;
}
?>Thirdly, our controller file. To use the pagination, add this to the controller.
$this->load->model('My_Model', 'sql', TRUE);
//********************SET UP PAGINATION VALUES****************************
//set up per_page_value, per_page_seg, cur_page_seg and $data['pbase_url']
//************************************************************************
$this->load->plugin('pagination');
$per_page_value = 5; //default - unless overridden later
$per_page_seg = 5; //the uri segment for the per page value
$cur_page_seg = 6; //the url segment for the current page value (generally +1 of per page seg)
$per_page = get_per_page($per_page_value, $per_page_seg);
$offset = get_offset($cur_page_seg, $per_page);
//generate the query
$data['query'] = $this->sql->get_records($offset, $per_page);
//find out the total amount of records
$total_rows = count($this->sql->get_records(NULL, NULL));
$data['pbase_url'] = base_url().'path/to/controller/';
$data['pagination'] = init_paginate($cur_page_seg, $total_rows, $per_page, $per_page_seg, $data['pbase_url']);
$this->load->view('path/to/controller', $data);Fourthly, an example function from out model file.
function get_records($offset, $limit)
{
//add where clause processing here if required
$this->db->select('*');
//$this->db->having($having);
if ($offset != NULL)
$this->db->offset($offset);
if ($limit != NULL)
$this->db->limit($limit);
if ($limit == NULL && $offset == NULL)
{
$count = $this->db->get('my_table');
return $count->result_array();
}
else
return $this->db->get('my_table');
}Fifthly, our view file. Wherever you want the pagination to be, add this:
<div class="pagination" align="left">
<?php echo $pagination;?>
</div>
<!-- this is the number of records part - an example only -->
<div align="right"><a href="<?=$pbase_url;?>/10">10</a> | <a href="<?=$pbase_url;?>/20">20</a></div>Sixthly, and also lastly, here is an example css file
div.pagination
{
padding: 3px;
margin: 3px;
}
div.pagination a
{
padding: 2px 5px 2px 5px;
margin: 2px;
border: 1px solid #AAAADD;
text-decoration: none; /* no underline */
color: #000099;
}
div.pagination a:hover, div.pagination a:active
{
border: 1px solid #000099;
color: #000;
}
div.pagination span.current
{
padding: 2px 5px 2px 5px;
margin: 2px;
border: 1px solid #000099;
font-weight: bold;
background-color: #993300;
color: #FFF;
}
div.pagination span.disabled
{
padding: 2px 5px 2px 5px;
margin: 2px;
border: 1px solid #EEE;
color: #DDD;
}Hope it helps someone out there!
