Note: This version is compatible with Bootstrap 3.x only! Please use the 1.0.x branch for Bootstrap 2 support.
This application serves to make using Twitter's Bootstrap Pagination styles
work seamlessly with Django Page objects. By passing in a Page object and
one or more optional arguments, Bootstrap pagination bars and pagers can
be rendered with very little effort.
Compatible with Django 1.3+

Installation
PIP
pip install django-bootstrap-pagination
Download
Download the latest stable distribution from:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-bootstrap-pagination
Download the latest development version from:
github @ http://www.github.com/jmcclell/django-bootstrap-pagination
setup.py install
Usage
Setup
Make sure you include bootstrap-pagination in your installed_apps list in settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'bootstrap_pagination',
)
Additionally, include the following snippet at the top of any template that makes use of
the pagination tags:
{% load bootstrap_pagination %}
==================
bootstrap_paginate
Takes a Django Paginator instance <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/pagination/>
_
as an argument to build a jump to page element.
All Optional Arguments
range
Defines the maximum number of page links to show
show_prev_next
Boolean. Defines whether or not to show the Previous and Next links. (Accepts "true" or "false")
previous_label
The label to use for the Previous link
next_label
The label to use for the Next link
show_first_last
Boolean. Defines whether or not to show the First and Last links. (Accepts "true" or "false")
first_label
The label to use for the First page link
last_label
The label to use for the Last page link
url_view_name
A named URL reference (such as one that might get passed inti the URL template tag) to use as
the URL template. Must be resolvable by the reverse() function. If this option is not
specified, the tag simply uses a relative url such as "?page=1" which is fine in most
situations
url_param_name
Determines the name of the GET parameter for the page number. The default is "page". If no
url_view_name is defined, this string is appended to the url as "?{{url_param_name}}=1".
url_extra_args
Only valid when url_view_name is set.
Additional arguments to pass into reverse() to resolve the URL.
url_extra_kwargs
Only valid when url_view_name is set.
Additional named arguments to pass into reverse() to resolve the URL. Additionally,the
template tag will add an extra parameter to this for the page, as it is assumed that if
given a url_name, the page will be a named variable in the URL regular expression. In
this case, the url_param_name continues to be the string used to represent the name.
That is, by default, url_param_name is equal to "page" and thus it is expected that
there is a named "page" argument in the URL referenced by url_view_name. This allows
us to use pretty pagination URLs such as "/page/1"
Basic Usage
The following will show a pagination bar with a link to every page, a previous link, and a next link:
{% bootstrap_paginate page_obj %}
The following will show a pagination bar with at most 10 page links, a previous link, and a next link:
{% bootstrap_paginate page_obj range=10 %}
The following will show a pagination bar with at most 10 page links, a first page link, and a last page link:
{% bootstrap_paginate page_obj range=10 show_prev_next="false" show_first_last="true" %}
Advanced Usage
Given a url configured such as:
archive_index_view = ArchiveIndexView.as_view(
date_field='date',
paginate_by=10,
allow_empty=True,
queryset=MyModel.all(),
template_name='example/archive.html'
)
urlpatterns = patterns(
'example.views',
url(r'^$', archive_index_view, name='archive_index'),
url(r'^page/(?P\d+)/$', archive_index_view,
name='archive_index_paginated'))
We could simply use the basic usage (appending ?page=#) with the archive_index URL above,
as the archive_index_view class based generic view from django doesn't care how it gets
the page parameter. However, if we want pretty URLs, such as those defined in the
archive_index_paginated URL (ie: /page/1), we need to define the URL in our template tag:
{% bootstrap_paginate page_obj url_view_name="archive_index_paginated" %}
Because we are using a default page parameter name of "page" and our URL requires no other
parameters, everything works as expected. If our URL required additional parameters, we
would pass them in using the optional arguments url_extra_args and url_extra_kwargs.
Likewise, if our page parameter had a different name, we would pass in a different
url_param_name argument to the template tag.
A much simpler implementation of the Bootstrap Pagination functionality is the Pager, which
simply provides a Previous and Next link.
All Optional Arguments
previous_label
Defines the label for the Previous link
next_label
Defines the label for the Next link
previous_title
Defines the link title for the previous link
next_title
Defines the link title for the next link
centered
Boolean. Defines whether or not the links are centered. Defaults to false.
(Accepts "true" or "false")
url_view_name
A named URL reference (such as one that might get passed inti the URL template tag) to use as
the URL template. Must be resolvable by the reverse() function. If this option is not
specified, the tag simply uses a relative url such as "?page=1" which is fine in most
situations
url_param_name
Determines the name of the GET parameter for the page number. The default is "page". If no
url_view_name is defined, this string is appended to the url as "?{{url_param_name}}=1".
url_extra_args
Only valid when url_view_name is set.
Additional arguments to pass into reverse() to resolve the URL.
url_extra_kwargs
Only valid when url_view_name is set.
Additional named arguments to pass into reverse() to resolve the URL. Additionally,the
template tag will add an extra parameter to this for the page, as it is assumed that if
given a url_name, the page will be a named variable in the URL regular expression. In
this case, the url_param_name continues to be the string used to represent the name.
That is, by default, url_param_name is equal to "page" and thus it is expected that
there is a named "page" argument in the URL referenced by url_view_name. This allows
us to use pretty pagination URLs such as "/page/1"
url_anchor
The anchor to use in URLs. Defaults to None.
Usage
Usage is basically the same as for bootstrap_paginate. The simplest usage is:
{% bootstrap_pager page_obj %}
A somewhat more advanced usage might look like:
{% bootstrap_pager page_obj previous_label="Newer Posts" next_label="Older Posts" url_view_name="post_archive_paginated" %}
