具有不同页码的多个分页

Question

I am using CakePHP 2.5.x. In single request I am calling paginate() method twice. In first call, I do not need page parameter as I am selecting all records for that.

For second call of paginate(), I am selecting data based on page parameter found in URL.

Now, concern is that:

http://localhost/xyz/home/get_data/page:1   //working fine
http://localhost/xyz/home/get_data/page:2   //throw 404 from first paginate()

What will be good way to omit page param for first paginate() call.

P.S. I am using same model for both paginate() call.

Point me if it's duplicate. Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

I figured out way to solve the problem. Here are steps I am following for first paginate() call (where the actual issue exist)

1. I save original page param from url in another variable

//get original page number from request and set first page manually
$original_page_number = !empty($this->request->params['named']['page']) ? $this->request->params['named']['page'] : 1;
$this->request->params['named']['page'] = 1;

1. Call paginate() function

2. Reassign original page param to request object

//set back to original page number
$this->request->params['named']['page'] = $original_page_number;

As I have problem in first paginate() call, so I omitted page param for that call only.

Hope it will help someone!
