Full Pager

A comprehensive pagination navigation component used throughout Drupal for navigating multi-page content, especially in Views. Provides complete navigation controls including first, previous, numbered pages, next, and last links.

Overview

The full pager component renders a complete pagination interface with numbered page links, navigation controls, and ellipses for large page sets. It shares styling with the mini-pager component and serves as the base library dependency for pagination styling.

Usage

{{ include('dripyard_base:pager', {
  pagination_heading_level: pagination_heading_level|default('h2'),
  items,
  current,
  ellipses,
}, with_context = false) }}

Props

Property Type Required Description
items object|null Yes Collection of pagination items and controls
pagination_heading_level string Yes HTML heading level for the pagination heading
current integer|null No The currently active page number
ellipses object|null No Configuration for ellipses display

Items Object Structure

The items object contains:
  • first - Link to first page
  • previous - Link to previous page
  • pages - Object of numbered page links
  • next - Link to next page
  • last - Link to last page

Ellipses Object Structure

The ellipses object contains:
  • previous - Boolean indicating if ellipses should show before current pages
  • next - Boolean indicating if ellipses should show after current pages

CSS Custom Properties

The component uses the following CSS variables for customization:
  • --pager-surface - Sets the background color of the pager container
  • --pager-inactive-background-color - Controls background color for inactive page items
  • --pager-inactive-text-color - Sets text color for inactive page items
  • --pager-active-background-color - Controls background color for the active page
  • --pager-active-text-color - Sets text color for the active page
  • --pager-border-radius - Controls corner rounding of pager items
  • --pager-size - Sets the size (width/height) of pager items
  • --pager-hover-background-color - Controls background color on hover

Container Queries

The component uses responsive sizing: 
@container (width > 700px) {
  --size: var(--spacing-l);
}
When the component is wider than 700px, pager items increase in size for better touch targets.

Shared Styling

This component serves as the base library for pagination styling. The mini-pager component depends on this component's CSS library for consistent styling across both pagination types.
