In this article, we will learn how to use paging in ASP.NET MVC 4, using PagedList. First, show the Table script.. For paging we will use PagedList.mvc package which we will download from Nuget Package Manager.
What is PagedList.mvc?
PagedList.mvc is a package for paging and sorting for ASP.NET MVC. PagedList package installs a PagedList collection type and extension methods for IQueryable and IEnumerable collections.
Open a New Project.
Click on OK button.
After opening the project, go to Solution Explorer and right click on References.
Click on Manage NuGet Packages and type PagedList.mvc in the top right corner
for search.
Click on Install button.
Now, it is installing. After the installation, the page will look like the following:
Close this window. Now, you can see that PagedList.mvc is installed in our project. We add its reference in our controller show, as shown below:
Add a student.cs class in Models folder.
Without using PagedList.mvc my controller code :
- [HttpGet]
- public ActionResult Index(int? page)
- {
- BL buisnessLogic = new BL();
- student objStudent = new student();
- List<student> objStudentList = new List<student>();
- objStudentList = buisnessLogic.studentListBind();
- objStudent.std = objStudentList;
- return View(objStudent);
- }
After successfully adding the references and creating student.cs class, we will write the Controller code, as shown below:
Business logic
- using System;
- using System.Collections.Generic;
- using System.Linq;
- using System.Web;
- using System.Data;
- using System.Data.SqlClient;
- namespace mvcpaging.Models
- {
- public class BL
- {
- SqlHelper sql1 = new SqlHelper();
- public List<student> studentListBind() {
- DataTable dt = new DataTable();
- SqlParameter[] GetBalance_Parm = new SqlParameter[]
- {
- };
- DataSet _DS = SqlHelper.GetDataSet(SqlHelper.mainConnectionString, CommandType.StoredProcedure, "[GetStdInfo]", GetBalance_Parm);
- List<student> lst = new List<student>();
- if (_DS.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
- {
- foreach (DataRow item in _DS.Tables[0].Rows)
- {
- lst.Add(new student
- {
- Id=Convert.ToInt32(item["id"]),
- Name =Convert.ToString(item["name"]),
- Fathername = Convert.ToString(item["fathername"]),
- Mothername = Convert.ToString(item["mothername"]),
- Age = Convert.ToInt32(item["age"]),
- Country = Convert.ToString(item["country"]),
- State = Convert.ToString(item["state"]),
- Nationality = Convert.ToString(item["nationality"])
- });
- }
- }
- return lst;
- }
- }
- }
- @using PagedList.Mvc
- @model PagedList.IPagedList<mvcpaging.Models.student>
- @{
- ViewBag.Title = "Student Details";
- }
- <style>
- .ul.pagination
- {
- display: inline-block;
- padding: 0;
- margin: 0;
- }
- ul.pagination li
- {
- display: inline;
- }
- ul.pagination li a
- {
- color: black;
- float: left;
- padding: 8px 16px;
- text-decoration: none;
- transition: background-color .3s;
- }
- ul.pagination li a.active
- {
- background-color: #4CAF50;
- color: white;
- }
- ul.pagination li a:hover:not(.active)
- {
- background-color: #ddd;
- }
- </style>
- @using (Html.BeginForm())
- {
- <center>
- <h2>Student Details</h2>
- <div style="border:1px solid red; margin-left:25%; margin-right:20%">
- <table style="width:100%" border="1">
- <tr>
- <th style="width:10%; text-align:left"> @Html.Label("Student ID")</th>
- <th style="width:10%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("Name")</th>
- <th style="width:15%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("Father Name")</th>
- <th style="width:15%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("Mother Name")</th>
- <th style="width:5%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("Age")</th>
- <th style="width:15%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("Country")</th>
- <th style="width:15%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("State" )</th>
- <th style="width:15%; text-align:left">@Html.Label("Nationality")</th>
- </tr>
- @for (int i = 0; i < Model.Count; i++)
- {
- <tr style="border:1px solid red">
- <td>@Model[i].Id</td>
- <td>@Model[i].Name</td>
- <td>@Model[i].Fathername</td>
- <td>@Model[i].Mothername</td>
- <td>@Model[i].Age</td>
- <td>@Model[i].Country</td>
- <td>@Model[i].State</td>
- <td>@Model[i].Nationality</td>
- </tr>
- }
- </table>
- </div>
- </center>
- <div id="container" style="margin-left: 20px">
- <p></p>
- <p></p>
- <div class="pagination" style="margin-left: 400px">
- Page @(Model.PageCount < Model.PageNumber ? 0 : Model.PageNumber)
- of @Model.PageCount @Html.PagedListPager(Model, page => Url.Action("Index", new { page }))
- </div>
- </div>
- }
After click on 2nd page records will be show of 2nd page.
