pagination_builder(pagination, **kwargs)

A helper function to make pagination data.

This function is designed based on Flask-SQLAlchemy's Pagination class. If you are using a different or custom pagination class, make sure the passed pagination object has the following attributes:

• page
• per_page
• pages
• total
• next_num
• has_next
• prev_num
• has_prev

Or you can write your own builder function to build the pagination data.

Examples:

from apiflask import PaginationSchema, pagination_builder

...

class PetQuery(Schema):
    page = Integer(load_default=1)
    per_page = Integer(load_default=20, validate=Range(max=30))


class PetsOut(Schema):
    pets = List(Nested(PetOut))
    pagination = Nested(PaginationSchema)


@app.get('/pets')
@app.input(PetQuery, location='query')
@app.output(PetsOut)
def get_pets(query):
    pagination = PetModel.query.paginate(
        page=query['page'],
        per_page=query['per_page']
    )
    pets = pagination.items
    return {
        'pets': pets,
        'pagination': pagination_builder(pagination)
    }

See https://github.com/apiflask/apiflask/blob/main/examples/pagination/app.py for the complete example.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
pagination	PaginationType	The pagination object.	required
**kwargs	Any	Additional keyword arguments that passed to the url_for function when generate the page-related URLs.	{}
