This is a simple example of how to implement client-side pagination in Angular 10.

The example contains a hard coded array of 150 objects split into 15 pages to demonstrate how the pagination component works. Styling in the example is done with bootstrap 4.5 css but you can style any way you like using the provided css classes, details are provided later in the tutorial.

Angular 10 Pagination Component

Pagination is implemented with the <jw-pagination> component that comes with the jw-angular-pagination package available on npm.

Installation

Install the angular pagination component with the command npm install jw-angular-pagination.

Integration with your Angular 10 app

Import the JwPaginationModule into your app module (app.module.ts) and add it to the imports array to make the <jw-pagination> component available within your Angular module.

This is the app module (app.module.ts) from the example, the pagination module is imported on line 3 and added to the imports on line 10.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { JwPaginationModule } from 'jw-angular-pagination';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        JwPaginationModule
    ],
    declarations: [
        AppComponent
    ],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Usage

There are 2 required properties for using the Angular 10 pagination component:

• items - the array of items to be paged
• changePage - a callback function for handling the changePage event

There are also a few optional properties:

• pageSize - the number of items displayed on each page (defaults to 10)
• maxPages - the max number of page links to display in the pagination nav (defaults to 10)
• initialPage - the initial page to display (defaults to 1)

Example App Component

This is the app component (/src/app/app.component.ts) from the example, it creates a hardcoded array of items to be paged in the ngOnInit() method, and updates the current page of items in the onChangePage() callback method.

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({ selector: 'app', templateUrl: 'app.component.html' })
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    items = [];
    pageOfItems: Array<any>;

    constructor() { }

    ngOnInit() {
        // an example array of 150 items to be paged
        this.items = Array(150).fill(0).map((x, i) => ({ id: (i + 1), name: `Item ${i + 1}`}));
    }

    onChangePage(pageOfItems: Array<any>) {
        // update current page of items
        this.pageOfItems = pageOfItems;
    }
}

Example App Component Template

This is the app component template (/src/app/app.component.html) from the example, it renders the current page of items using the *ngFor Angular directive on line 5, and includes the pagination component (<jw-pagination ...>) on line 8.

The pagination component is bound to items property of the app component using the Angular model binding attribute [items]="items", and is bound to the onChangePage() method of the app component using the Angular event binding attribute (changePage)="onChangePage($event)".

<!-- main app container -->
<div class="card text-center m-3">
    <h3 class="card-header">Angular 10 Pagination Example</h3>
    <div class="card-body">
        <div *ngFor="let item of pageOfItems">{{item.name}}</div>
    </div>
    <div class="card-footer pb-0 pt-3">
        <jw-pagination [items]="items" (changePage)="onChangePage($event)"></jw-pagination>
    </div>
</div>
