Pagination Example Template

Setup

git clone https://github.com/heroku/pagination-template
bundle
rake db:setup

The code implies you have Postgres database installed. By default pagination-starter-development and pagination-starter-test databases will be created and used for development/test environments. You can override the database URL per environment by creating a .env.<environment> file with DATABASE_URL in it. For example, if you want you database to be called my-test-db in test environment, create a .env.test file with the following content:

DATABASE_URL=postgres://localhost/my-test-db

Using Postgres is not mandatory. Feel free to make necessary changes to run a different database.

Run Tests

bundle exec rake

Start the webserver

bin/web

Pagination

The codebase has one model called Thing that has an integer id and a text name. There's also an endpoint called API::Endpoints::Things that is mounted under /things namespace. The endpoint renders all existing Thing records from the database.

TODO: describe how pagination should work.
