CodeIgniter Pagination, possible routing issue? - php

Question

I'm trying to learn CodeIgniter and I'm having trouble with the pagination. I'm a complete newbie so I apologise if I've missed anything.
The pagination displays on my views fine, generates everything it should, but the pages give me a 404. I suspect it might have something to do with the routes or the uri_segment (though I've changed it to a whole bunch of numbers and nothing did the trick), but I'm not sure.
The URLs each page generates are /music3/music/20, /music3/music/40, etc.
Let me know if you need anything I haven't included.
Controller:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://moefoster.com/music3/music/';
$config['total_rows'] = $this->db->count_all('Music');
$config['per_page'] = '20';
$config['num_links'] = '5';
$config['uri_segment'] = '2';
$this->pagination->initialize($config);
$data['music'] = $this->music_model->get_music($config['per_page'], $config['uri_segment']);
Model:
public function get_music($num = 20, $offset = 0, $slug = FALSE) {
if ($slug === FALSE) {
return $this->db->select('*')->from('Music')->limit($num, $offset)->order_by('Release', 'desc')->get()->result_array();
}
$query = $this->db->get_where('Music', $num, $offset, array('Track' => $slug));
return $query->row_array();
}
Routes:
$route['music'] = 'music';
$route['default_controller'] = "music";
$route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1';

Answer 1

you use standard pagination :/ nevermind, pagination generated like this:
class / function / pagination num
URL BASE:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://moefoster.com/music/';
ROUTES:
$route['music'] = 'music';
$route['music/(:num)'] = 'music/$1';
$route['default_controller'] = "music";
$route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1';
but I use in backend, \libraries\My_Pagination.php
<?php
if (! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MY_Pagination extends CI_Pagination
{
var $offset = 0;
var $pagination_selector = 'page';
var $index_page;
function MY_Pagination ()
{
parent::__construct();
log_message('debug', "MY_Pagination Class Initialized");
$this->index_page = config_item('index_page') != '' ? config_item('index_page') . '/' : '';
$this->_set_pagination_offset();
}
function _set_pagination_offset ()
{
$CI = & get_instance();
if (strstr($CI->uri->uri_string(), $this->pagination_selector)) {
$segments = $CI->uri->segment_array();
foreach ($segments as $key => $value) {
if ($value == $this->pagination_selector) {
$this->offset = $CI->uri->segment($key + 1);
$this->uri_segment = $key + 1;
$uri = $CI->uri->uri_string();
$pos = strpos($uri, $this->pagination_selector);
$this->base_url = '/'.$this->index_page . substr($uri, 0, $pos + strlen($this->pagination_selector.'/'));
}
}
}
else {
$this->offset = 0;
$this->uri_segment = 0;
$this->base_url = '/'.$this->index_page . $CI->uri->uri_string() . '/' . $this->pagination_selector.'/';
}
}
}
Example controller
function somefunction($somevariable){
$config['total_rows'] = Model_Admin::getCountClankyCategory($somevariable);
$config['per_page'] = 25;
$config['cur_tag_open'] = '#START SOME HTML#';
$config['cur_tag_close'] = '#END SOME HTML#';
$config['full_tag_open'] = '#START SOME HTML PAGINATION#';
$config['full_tag_close'] = '#END SOME HTML PAGINATION#';
$this->pagination->initialize($config);
$data['content'] = Model_Admin::getAllClankyCategory($somevariable,$config['per_page'],$this->pagination->offset);
.....
}
some example model
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Model_Admin extends CI_Model {
private static $db;
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
self::$db = &get_instance()->db;
}
static function getAllClankyCategory($cat,$num,$offset) {
self::$db->where('#MYTYPE#',$cat);
return self::$db->get('#SOMETABLE#',$num,$offset)->result_array();
}
static function getCountClankyCategory($cat) {
return self::$db->count_all_results('#SOMETABLE#');
}
then if u use "some hard code routing", routes like, other u use without these routes
$route['admin/articles/cat/(:any)'] = "admin/cat/$1";
$route['admin/articles/cat/(:any)/(:num)'] = "admin/cat/$1/$2";
