Pager 1.5 Migration |
Infusion |
This page will walk you through the process of upgrading your existing 1.4 Pager component implementation to the new 1.5 version. This tutorial assumes that:
- you are already familiar with HTML, Javascript and CSS
- you are familiar with what the Pager component is and does
- you have an existing implementation that makes use of the Pager and worked with the 1.4 Infusion release.

(For 1.4, the Pager was not IoC-enabled and had a single unfactored implementation file)

These configuration blocks show how a minimal configuration of the Pager has changed between the versions. Numerous other configuration options are of course supported as listed in the API documentation.
fluid.pagedTable("container", {
dataModel: {
// ...
},
columnDefs: {
// ...
},
components: {
bodyRenderer: {
options: {
selectors: {
// ...
}
}
}
}
});
fluid.pager("container", {
dataModel: {
// ...
},
columnDefs: {
// ...
},
bodyRenderer: {
options: {
selectors: {
// ...
}
}
}
});
- Every "pseudocomponent" attached to the Pager (e.g. pagerBar, summary, pageSize) etc. is now a genuine IoC-configured
component, and should have its options entered in the
components
area rather than at top level as before - The single monolithic component
Pager
has been factored into 3 components, plainPager
which now just has responsibility for paging,Table
which renders tabular data, and a new top-level gradepagedTable
which orchestrates the two factored gradesPager
andTable
into an integrated solution. As a result of this, many type names have moved into a new namespace, eitherfluid.table
orfluid.pagedTable
depending on their functionality. - The user is recommended to configure the rendering components (
fluid.table.selfRender
,fluid.pager.renderedPageList
) using selectors to bind onto markup rather than use the old-fashioned markup pollution based on the special attributersf:id
). - The duplicate component
pagerBarSecondary
has been removed andpagerBar
is instead initialised as a standard IoC-driven dynamic component which will create as many pager bars as there are matching elements in the markup
The following table shows the changes in the type names of 1.4 components moving to 1.5 (remember that when used, these
must also be housed in the components
block of the parent component, rather than appearing at top level as before):
1.4 type name | 1.5 type name |
---|---|
fluid.pager.pagerBar | fluid.pager.pagerBar |
fluid.pager.summary | fluid.pager.summary |
fluid.pager.directPageSize | fluid.pager.directPageSize |
fluid.pager.directPageList | fluid.pager.directPageList |
fluid.pager.renderedPageList | fluid.pager.renderedPageList |
fluid.pager.selfRender | fluid.table.selfRender |
fluid.pager.rangeAnnotator | fluid.pagedTable.rangeAnnotator |
Note that the Pager Component remains in "Sneak Peek" mode for the 1.5 release and its API is not expected to be stable. Please get in touch with the Infusion team on Chat or the mailing lists (see Get Involved) if you are contemplating any non-trivial usage.
