Pagination by QuerySet code example

Example 1: handle queries in ListView django

class ProfileList(ListView):
    template_name = 'your_template.html'
    model = Profile

    def get_queryset(self):
        query = self.request.GET.get('q')
        if query:
            object_list = self.model.objects.filter(name__icontains=query)
        else:
            object_list = self.model.objects.none()
        return object_list

Example 2: django paginator code

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.core.paginator import Paginator, EmptyPage, PageNotAnInteger

def index(request):
    user_list = User.objects.all()
    page = request.GET.get('page', 1)

    paginator = Paginator(user_list, 10)
    try:
        users = paginator.page(page)
    except PageNotAnInteger:
        users = paginator.page(1)
    except EmptyPage:
        users = paginator.page(paginator.num_pages)

    return render(request, 'core/user_list.html', { 'users': users })

Example 3: Using Paginator in a view function

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.core.paginator import Paginator, EmptyPage, PageNotAnInteger

def index(request):
    user_list = User.objects.all()
    page = request.GET.get('page', 1)

    paginator = Paginator(user_list, 10)
    try:
        users = paginator.page(page)
    except PageNotAnInteger:
        users = paginator.page(1)
    except EmptyPage:
        users = paginator.page(paginator.num_pages)

    return render(request, 'core/user_list.html', { 'users': users }) here user is new parameter or variable...
