Getting started

Requirements

Python >= 2.7 (or Python 3)
Django >= 1.8
jQuery >= 1.7

Installation

The Git repository can be cloned with this command:

git clone https://github.com/shtalinberg/django-el-pagination.git

The el_pagination package, included in the distribution, should be placed on the PYTHONPATH.

Otherwise you can just easy_install -Z django-el-pagination or pip install django-el-pagination.

Settings

Add the request context processor to your settings.py, e.g.:

from django.conf.global_settings import TEMPLATES

TEMPLATES[0]['OPTIONS']['context_processors'].insert(0, 'django.core.context_processors.request')

Add 'el_pagination' to the INSTALLED_APPS to your settings.py.

See the Customization section for other settings.

Quickstart

Given a template like this:

{% for entry in entries %}
    {# your code to show the entry #}
{% endfor %}

you can use Digg-style pagination to display objects just by adding:

{% load el_pagination_tags %}

{% paginate entries %}
{% for entry in entries %}
    {# your code to show the entry #}
{% endfor %}
{% show_pages %}

Done.

This is just a basic example. To continue exploring all the Django Endless Pagination features, have a look at Twitter-style Pagination or Digg-style pagination.
