Different sorting for different endpoint about pagination

[anthonycastelli]

ToIf you're gonna override at the model level, it'll be something like this

extension MyModel: Paginatable {
    static var defaultPageSorts: [MyModel.Database.QuerySort] {
        return [
            // Option #1
            MyModel.Database.querySort(MyModel.Database.queryField(.keyPath(\ MyModel.name)), MyModel Database.querySortDirectionDescending),
            // Option #2
            (\MyModel.name).querySort()
        ]
    }
}

If you want to do it on a route level, it'll be done something like this:

return try query.paginate(for: req, [(\Allergy.name).querySort()])

I'm gonna go ahead and close this issue, but if you do run into issues, feel free to reopen this. 🙂

Overriding the defaultPageSorts will allow you to accomplish this on a per model basis.

pagination/Sources/Pagination/Paginatable.swift

Line 21 in 0cd6a77

static var defaultPageSorts: [Self.Database.QuerySort] { get }

If you want to do it on the fly, you can add your own sorts into the paginate method.

pagination/Sources/Pagination/QueryBuilder+Paginatable.swift

Line 53 in 0cd6a77

public func paginate(for req: Request, pageKey: String = Pagination.defaultPageKey, perPageKey: String = Pagination.defaultPerPageKey, _ sorts: [Result.Database.QuerySort] = Result.defaultPageSorts) throws -> Future<Page<Result>> {

@anthonycastelli I want to sort with Boolean value from certain column. Could you show me some example?

[andreascai]

@anthonycastelli thanks for the help. I would try that later

@anthonycastelli

return try query.paginate(for: req, [(\Allergy.name).querySort()])

says Use of unresolved identifier 'query'.
