Macros

These macros are used for Eloquent Builder and Collection. The main difference in using pagination on a collection or builder is that builder has not yet perform the database request, i.e. paginate will perform request to get needed amount of records from database. Collection already have all elements and paginate will not perform any database requests.

paginate

Create a LengthAwarePaginator instance from Builder or Collection.

collect($posts)->paginate(5); // From Collection instance
Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->get()->paginate(5); // From Collection instance
Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->paginate(5); // From Builder instance

This paginates the contents of $posts with 5 items per page. paginate accept some options, head over to the Laravel docs for an in-depth guide.

paginateFirstDifferent

Create a FirstDifferentLengthAwarePaginator.php instance which extend LengthAwarePaginator from Builder or Collection.

collect($posts)->paginateFirstDifferent(10, 5); // From Collection instance
Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->get()->paginateFirstDifferent(10, 5); // From Collection instance
Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->paginateFirstDifferent(10, 5); // From Builder instance

This paginates the contents of $posts with 10 items at first page and 5 items for next pages. paginateFirstDifferent accepts same options as paginate but instead of $perPage accepts two parameters $firstPerPage and $nextPerPage

You can also pass third parameter to get all post from first to current page.

Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->paginateFirstDifferent(10, 5, true);

paginateWithPrevious

Create a LengthAwarePaginator instance from Builder or Collection.

collect($posts)->paginateWithPrevious(5); // From Collection instance
Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->get()->paginateWithPrevious(5); // From Builder instance
Post::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->paginateWithPrevious(5); // From Builder instance

This paginates the contents of $posts with 5 items per page but takes all posts from first to current page. At example if current page equals 5 then paginateWithPrevious will return 25 posts (5 per each page). It useful if you want load all posts for current page after reloading page or share link with pagination (https://website.com/posts?page=5). paginateWithPrevious accepts same options as paginate
