print no of items fetched using pagination in cakephp 3 - cakephp

Question

I want to display count of no of items fetched per page using pagination like
Displaying 10 items
Although limit is set to pagination to 20 but It will not always fetch 20 items when there are only 15 items or 10 items or 25 items.
In these cases it will either have one page result for items count 15 and 10 or two pages result for items count 25.
I want to print the no of items showing on each page. Like for total items 25.
It will show Displaying 20 items on first page and Displaying 5 items on second page.
How is it possible in CakePHP 3.2 ?

Answer 1

This is how I get it working in CakePHP 3.2
There are two ways you can do it.
Using Helpers
create a file paginator-counter.php in /config directory with your tokens and string and add a line in /src/view/AppView.php
public function initialize()
{
$this->loadHelper('Paginator', ['templates' => 'paginator-counter']);
}
This will load the file located at config/paginator-templates.php
And then use it in your view.

Using direct string
Just print in view where you want to print the counter
<?= $this->Paginator->counter('Showing {{current}} results out of {{count}}') ?>
More tokens can be found Here : http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/views/helpers/paginator.html#creating-a-page-counter
I'm using 2nd way to print counter ie., using sting directly
