To use pagination with a DB::select
query in Laravel, you can follow these steps:
- Import the IlluminatePaginationPaginator class at the top of your file:
use IlluminatePaginationPaginator;
- Use the DB::table method to create a query builder instance:
$query = DB::table('your_table');
- Call the paginate method on the query builder instance, specifying the number of items per page:
$perPage = 10;
$results = $query->paginate($perPage);
- You can customize the pagination by adding additional methods before calling the paginate method. For example, you can add a where condition:
$results = $query->where('column', 'value')->paginate($perPage);
- You can access the paginated results using the $results variable. It provides various methods and properties to display the paginated data, such as links for generating pagination links and items to access the actual data:
foreach ($results->items() as $item) {
// Access and use the item data
}
echo $results->links(); // Display pagination links
This way, you can use pagination with a DB::select
query in Laravel. Remember to adjust the table name, column name, and conditions according to your database structure and requirements.
