Paginate two or more collections in one action about pagy

[ddnexus]

Nope. You can do it right now by doing:

@pagy, @records = pagy(@mycollection, page: param[:custom_param_name])

[ddnexus]

and BTW... pagy_get_params is the way to massage the params. (see Customizing the params).

The proper way to change the param name (but for all instances) would be overriding pagy_get_vars, which would work as a default for all the pagy calls, but... just pass a variable to the pagy method and it will override the default.

Yes, I also thought/wrote pagy_get_params was the way to go to modify the page links, but to paginate two collections in one action/on one page, you would need to define two helpers that both would redefine pagy_get_params?

Absolutely not:

@pagy, @records = pagy(@mycollection)               # uses params[:page]
@custom_pagy1, @custom_records = pagy(@mycollection1, page: param[:custom_param_name1])
@custom_pagy2, @custom_records2 = pagy(@mycollection2, page: param[:custom_param_name2])

[cseelus]

<%= pagy_nav @custom_pagy1 %> will generate links like <a href="/collection?page=2"> though, using page as the page param instead of custom_param_name1.

True! And wrong! I have to fix that!
