Paginator

Paginator displays data in paged format and provides navigation between pages.

Import #


import { PaginatorModule } from 'primeng/paginator';

Basic #

Paginator is used as a controlled component with first, rows and onPageChange properties to manage the first index and number of records to display per page. Total number of records need to be with totalRecords property. Default template includes a dropdown to change the rows so rowsPerPageOptions is also necessary for the dropdown options.


<p-paginator (onPageChange)="onPageChange($event)" [first]="first" [rows]="rows" [totalRecords]="120" [rowsPerPageOptions]="[10, 20, 30]"></p-paginator>

Locale #

Localization information such as page numbers and rows per page options are defined with the locale property which defaults to the user locale.

User Locale

United States Locale

Persian Locale
