[aerogear-dev] Client Paging Strawman

[Sebastien Blanc]

Some new questions :

*JavaScript*
*
*

cars.updatePageConfig({
    offset: 2,
    limit: 10});

can we also shortcut this way ?

cars.read({
    page: "prev",
    pageConfig: {
      offset: 2,
      limit: 10
    },
    success: function( data ) {
        // do something
    },
    error: function() {
        // handle it
    }});


Another alternative : What about removing the "page" attribute and include
a "action" attribute inside a "paging" block ? If paging block isn't
present we implicitly know we don't want paging :

cars.read({
    paging: {
      action: "prev", //can be "next"
      offset: 2, //optional
      limit: 10 //optional
    },
    success: function( data ) {
        // do something
    },
    error: function() {
        // handle it
    }});


*General remark *
Do we want to describe in the specs the following use cases ?

- Calling previous on the first page
- Calling next on the last page
- Setting an offset > total number of pages
