defmodule CursorPaginator do @moduledoc """ Defines a CursorPaginator. This module adds a `paginate/3` function to your `Ecto.Repo` so that you can paginate through results using opaque cursors. ## Usage defmodule MyApp.Repo do use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :my_app use CursorPaginator end ## Options `CursorPaginator` can take any options accepted by `paginate/3`. This is useful when you want to enforce some options globally across your project. ### Example defmodule MyApp.Repo do use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :my_app use CursorPaginator, limit: 10, # sets the default limit to 10 maximum_limit: 100, # sets the maximum limit to 100 include_total_count: true, # include total count by default total_count_primary_key_field: :uuid # sets the total_count_primary_key_field to uuid for calculate total_count end Note that these values can be still be overriden when `paginate/3` is called. ### Use without macros If you wish to avoid use of macros or you wish to use a different name for the pagination function you can define your own function like so: defmodule MyApp.Repo do use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :my_app def my_paginate_function(queryable, opts \\ [], repo_opts \\ []) do defaults = [limit: 10] # Default options of your choice here opts = Keyword.merge(defaults, opts) CursorPaginator.paginate(queryable, opts, __MODULE__, repo_opts) end end """ import Ecto.Query alias CursorPaginator.{Config, Cursor, Ecto.Query, Page, Page.Metadata} defmacro __using__(opts) do quote do @defaults unquote(opts) def paginate(queryable, opts \\ [], repo_opts \\ []) do opts = Keyword.merge(@defaults, opts) CursorPaginator.paginate(queryable, opts, __MODULE__, repo_opts) end end end @doc """ Fetches all the results matching the query within the cursors. ## Options * `:after` - Fetch the records after this cursor. * `:before` - Fetch the records before this cursor. * `:cursor_fields` - The fields with sorting direction used to determine the cursor. In most cases, this should be the same fields as the ones used for sorting in the query. When you use named bindings in your query they can also be provided. * `:fetch_cursor_value_fun` function of arity 2 to lookup cursor values on returned records. Defaults to `CursorPaginator.default_fetch_cursor_value/2` * `:include_total_count` - Set this to true to return the total number of records matching the query. Note that this number will be capped by `:total_count_limit`. Defaults to `false`. * `:total_count_primary_key_field` - Running count queries on specified column of the table * `:limit` - Limits the number of records returned per page. Note that this number will be capped by `:maximum_limit`. Defaults to `50`. * `:maximum_limit` - Sets a maximum cap for `:limit`. This option can be useful when `:limit` is set dynamically (e.g from a URL param set by a user) but you still want to enfore a maximum. Defaults to `500`. * `:sort_direction` - The direction used for sorting. Defaults to `:asc`. It is preferred to set the sorting direction per field in `:cursor_fields`. * `:total_count_limit` - Running count queries on tables with a large number of records is expensive so it is capped by default. Can be set to `:infinity` in order to count all the records. Defaults to `10,000`. ## Repo options This will be passed directly to `Ecto.Repo.all/2`, as such any option supported by this function can be used here. ## Simple example query = from(p in Post, order_by: [asc: p.inserted_at, asc: p.id], select: p) Repo.paginate(query, cursor_fields: [:inserted_at, :id], limit: 50) ## Example with using custom sort directions per field query = from(p in Post, order_by: [asc: p.inserted_at, desc: p.id], select: p) Repo.paginate(query, cursor_fields: [inserted_at: :asc, id: :desc], limit: 50) ## Example with sorting on columns in joined tables from( p in Post, as: :posts, join: a in assoc(p, :author), as: :author, preload: [author: a], select: p, order_by: [ {:asc, a.name}, {:asc, p.id} ] ) Repo.paginate(query, cursor_fields: [{{:author, :name}, :asc}, id: :asc], limit: 50) When sorting on columns in joined tables it is necessary to use named bindings. In this case we name it `author`. In the `cursor_fields` we refer to this named binding and its column name. To build the cursor CursorPaginator uses the returned Ecto.Schema. When using a joined column the returned Ecto.Schema won't have the value of the joined column unless we preload it. E.g. in this case the cursor will be build up from `post.id` and `post.author.name`. This presupposes that the named of the binding is the same as the name of the relationship on the original struct. One level deep joins are supported out of the box but if we join on a second level, e.g. `post.author.company.name` a custom function can be supplied to handle the cursor value retrieval. This also applies when the named binding does not map to the name of the relationship. ## Example from( p in Post, as: :posts, join: a in assoc(p, :author), as: :author, join: c in assoc(a, :company), as: :company, preload: [author: a], select: p, order_by: [ {:asc, a.name}, {:asc, p.id} ] ) Repo.paginate(query, cursor_fields: [{{:company, :name}, :asc}, id: :asc], fetch_cursor_value_fun: fn post, {{:company, name}, _} -> post.author.company.name post, field -> CursorPaginator.default_fetch_cursor_value(post, field) end, limit: 50 ) """ @callback paginate(queryable :: Ecto.Query.t(), opts :: Keyword.t(), repo_opts :: Keyword.t()) :: CursorPaginator.Page.t() @doc false def paginate(queryable, opts, repo, repo_opts) do config = Config.new(opts) unless config.cursor_fields, do: raise("expected `:cursor_fields` to be set in call to paginate/3") sorted_entries = entries(queryable, config, repo, repo_opts) paginated_entries = paginate_entries(sorted_entries, config) {total_count, total_count_cap_exceeded} = total_count(queryable, config, repo, repo_opts) %Page{ entries: paginated_entries, metadata: %Metadata{ before: before_cursor(paginated_entries, sorted_entries, config), after: after_cursor(paginated_entries, sorted_entries, config), limit: config.limit, total_count: total_count, total_count_cap_exceeded: total_count_cap_exceeded } } end @doc """ Generate a cursor for the supplied record, in the same manner as the `before` and `after` cursors generated by `paginate/3`.
