# How to add pagination links
### JSON API adapter
Pagination links will be included in your response automatically as long as
the resource is paginated and if you are using the ```JsonApi``` adapter.
If you want pagination links in your response, use [Kaminari](https://github.com/amatsuda/kaminari)
or [WillPaginate](https://github.com/mislav/will_paginate).
###### Kaminari examples
```ruby
#array
@posts = Kaminari.paginate_array([1, 2, 3]).page(3).per(1)
render json: @posts
#active_record
@posts = Post.page(3).per(1)
render json: @posts
```
###### WillPaginate examples
```ruby
#array
@posts = [1,2,3].paginate(page: 3, per_page: 1)
render json: @posts
#active_record
@posts = Post.page(3).per_page(1)
render json: @posts
```
```ruby
ActiveModel::Serializer.config.adapter = :json_api
```
ex:
```json
{
"data": [
{
"type": "articles",
"id": "3",
"attributes": {
"title": "JSON API paints my bikeshed!",
"body": "The shortest article. Ever.",
"created": "2015-05-22T14:56:29.000Z",
"updated": "2015-05-22T14:56:28.000Z"
}
}
],
"links": {
"self": "http://example.com/articles?page[number]=3&page[size]=1",
"first": "http://example.com/articles?page[number]=1&page[size]=1",
"prev": "http://example.com/articles?page[number]=2&page[size]=1",
"next": "http://example.com/articles?page[number]=4&page[size]=1",
"last": "http://example.com/articles?page[number]=13&page[size]=1"
}
}
```
AMS pagination relies on a paginated collection with the methods `current_page`, `total_pages`, and `size`, such as are supported by both [Kaminari](https://github.com/amatsuda/kaminari) or [WillPaginate](https://github.com/mislav/will_paginate).
### JSON adapter
If you are using `JSON` adapter, pagination links will not be included automatically, but it is possible to do so using `meta` key.
In your action specify a custom serializer.
```ruby
render json: @posts, serializer: PaginatedSerializer, each_serializer: PostPreviewSerializer
```
And then, you could do something like the following class.
```ruby
class PaginatedSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer::ArraySerializer
def initialize(object, options={})
meta_key = options[:meta_key] || :meta
options[meta_key] ||= {}
options[meta_key] = {
current_page: object.current_page,
next_page: object.next_page,
prev_page: object.prev_page,
total_pages: object.total_pages,
total_count: object.total_count
}
super(object, options)
end
end
```
ex.
```json
{
"articles": [
{
"id": 2,
"title": "JSON API paints my bikeshed!",
"body": "The shortest article. Ever."
}
],
"meta": {
"current_page": 3,
"next_page": 4,
"prev_page": 2,
"total_pages": 10,
"total_count": 10
}
}
```
### Attributes adapter
This adapter does not allow us to use `meta` key, due to that it is not possible to add pagination links.
