I have a page which is used for searching through listings by submitting data using the supplied forms. The form parameters are submitted via ajax (post request), a new record i
If someone still has problems with pagination links, there is a fix here: Kaminari: Exclude basic form params from pagination links
Although, it does not work form me, as it was described in the commit description, there are still unwanted params in the link (:authenticity_token, :commit, :utf8, :_method), but you can exclude them by setting them to nil
For example:
paginate @books, params: {authenticity_token: nil, commit: nil, utf8: nil, action: nil}
Result:
<a href="/books?page=2">2</a>
OR
Controller:
def index
# here search staff, messing our params hash
@books = Books.all
@pagination_params = normalize_pagination_params
end
private
def normalize_pagination_params
params.inject({}) do |params_hash, p|
unless p[0]=="controller"
params_hash[p[0]] = nil
end
params_hash
end
end
View:
paginate @books, params: @pagination_params
Old Post. Better solution.
If you are using kaminari for pagination for nested resources with ajax updates, you will find Kaminari attempts to build the url based on the current path, regardless of the params you specify, resulting in a routing error.
The cleanest solution is to use a wildcard route.
If your paginating comments for a post and have a comments controller with a create and show action, then:
In your routes:
match '*path/comments(/:page)' => 'comments#show'
And the pagination widget:
<%= paginate @comments, params: { controller: :comments }, remote: true %>
You can fix this by editing the pagination partials to manually strip out the params from the url, then add the page param back. I know this is a hack, but it seems like the quickest way to fix this issue if pagination is broken (as it was for me).
I'm expanding this from the solution posted in the GitHub bug report for this issue.
You have to edit each of the 5 pagination link partials: _page.html.erb
(by number), _first_page.html.erb
and _last_page.html.erb
, _prev_page.html.erb
and _next_page.html.erb
.
You can find the page number you want from the local variables made available in the partials: current_page
, page
, num_pages
.
If you haven't already, generate the pagination partials in your app by running rails g kaminari:views default
Then edit the partials as follows:
#_page.html.erb
<%
unless page.current?
url = url.split('?')[0] + '?page=' + page.to_s
end
%>
<span class="page<%= ' current' if page.current? %>">
<%= link_to_unless page.current?, page, url, opts = {:remote => remote, :rel => page.next? ? 'next' : page.prev? ? 'prev' : nil} %>
</span>
# _first_page.html.erb
<span class="first">
<% url = url.split('?')[0] + '?page=1' %>
<%= link_to_unless current_page.first?, raw(t 'views.pagination.first'), url, :remote => remote %>
</span>
# _prev_page.html.erb
<span class="prev">
<% url = url.split('?')[0] + '?page=' + (current_page.to_i - 1).to_s %>
<%= link_to_unless current_page.first?, raw(t 'views.pagination.previous'), url, :rel => 'prev', :remote => remote %>
</span>
# _next_page.html.erb
<span class="next">
<% url = url.split('?')[0] + '?page=' + (current_page.to_i + 1).to_s %>
<%= link_to_unless current_page.last?, raw(t 'views.pagination.next'), url, :rel => 'next', :remote => remote %>
</span>
# _last_page.html.erb
<span class="last">
<% url = url.split('?')[0] + '?page=' + num_pages.to_s %>
<%= link_to_unless current_page.last?, raw(t 'views.pagination.last'), url, {:remote => remote} %>
</span>
You could try cleaning params by keeping only the things you need and deleting everything else before displaying the search results.
To use post I think you missed a second step, where you have to override the kaminari link partials : https://github.com/amatsuda/kaminari/wiki/Kaminari-recipes
