Preserve GET parameters using django-bootstrap3 pagination
🖊️ Austin Riba ⌚ 🔖 code 💬 1
This one got me for a bit. If you are using django-bootstrap3 and also want to use it’s handy bootstrap_pagination template tag for generating pagination links, you may be in for an unplesant surprise if your view uses any GET parameters. While the django-bootstrap-pagination project handles this by default, django-bootstrap3 will not persist GET paramters between pages.
The key to using the bootstrap_pagination
tag is the extra
argument, which takes a string and appends it to each page. If you
have the request_context
context processor installed, you can pass in this string using the QueryDict urlencode() method. For example:
{% bootstrap_pagination page_obj extra=request.GET.urlencode %}
Voila. Pagination in django with bootstrap working as it should.
