Laravel Eloquent limit and offset

laravel have own function skip for offset and take for limit. just like below example of laravel query :-

Article::where([['user_id','=',auth()->user()->id]])
                ->where([['title','LIKE',"%".$text_val."%"]])
                ->orderBy('id','DESC')
                ->skip(0)
                ->take(2)
                ->get();

Quick:

Laravel has a fast pagination method, paginate, which only needs to pass in the number of data displayed per page.

//use the paginate
Book::orderBy('updated_at', 'desc')->paginate(8);

how to customize paging:

you can use these method: offset，limit ,skip，take

• offset，limit : where does the offset setting start, limiting the amount of data to be queried

• skip，take: skip skips a few pieces of data and takes a lot of data

for example:

Model::offset(0)->limit(10)->get();

Model::skip(3)->take(3)->get()；


//i use it in my project, work fine ~

class BookController extends Controller
{
    public function getList(Request $request) {

        $page = $request->has('page') ? $request->get('page') : 1;
        $limit = $request->has('limit') ? $request->get('limit') : 10;

        $books = Book::where('status', 0)->limit($limit)->offset(($page - 1) * $limit)->get()->toArray();

        return $this->getResponse($books, count($books));
    }
}

You can use skip and take functions as below:

$products = $art->products->skip($offset*$limit)->take($limit)->get();

// skip should be passed param as integer value to skip the records and starting index

// take gets an integer value to get the no. of records after starting index defined by skip

EDIT

Sorry. I was misunderstood with your question. If you want something like pagination the forPage method will work for you. forPage method works for collections.

REf : https://laravel.com/docs/5.1/collections#method-forpage

e.g

$products = $art->products->forPage($page,$limit);

skip = OFFSET
$products = $art->products->skip(0)->take(10)->get(); //get first 10 rows
$products = $art->products->skip(10)->take(10)->get(); //get next 10 rows

From laravel doc 5.2 https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/queries#ordering-grouping-limit-and-offset

skip / take

To limit the number of results returned from the query, or to skip a given number of results in the query (OFFSET), you may use the skip and take methods:

$users = DB::table('users')->skip(10)->take(5)->get();

In laravel 5.3 you can write (https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/queries#ordering-grouping-limit-and-offset)

$products = $art->products->offset(0)->limit(10)->get();
