# Pagination

A React component in [Beamline](https://beamline.io/)'s [Navigation](https://beamline.io/components/navigation) category. Live demo: https://beamline.io/components/pagination

Moves through pages of a known length: first, last and the current page's neighbours, with an optional “41–60 of 468”; a phone shows “Page 6 of 24”.

## Use it for

- Moving through pages of results when the total is known.

## Not for

- Large live datasets (a virtualised data grid).
- Feeds (load more or infinite scroll).

## Anatomy

- range text
- previous
- page numbers with gaps
- next

## States

- first page
- middle
- last page
- phone (compact)

## Keyboard

- Tab through the buttons; the current page carries aria-current

## Motion

None. The current page's plate travels to the next page chosen as matter (ui/lib/contour.ts); in the middle of a long list the window keeps the current page in its middle slot, so the plate stays and the numbers change.

## Props

| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `page` | `number (from 1)` | — |  |
| `pageCount` | `number` | — |  |
| `onPageChange` | `(page) => void` | — |  |
| `siblings` | `number` | `1` |  |
| `pageSize / total` | `number` | — |  |
| `pageWindow(page, count, siblings)` | `function` | — | The numbers shown, in a fixed number of slots (2 × siblings + 5) so Next and Previous never move; every page when there are that few; a gap always stands for two or more pages. |
| `classNames` | `PaginationClassNames` | — |  |
| `style / ref` | `CSSProperties / native Ref` | — | native nav |

## More in Navigation

- [Breadcrumb](https://beamline.io/components/breadcrumb): Where a page sits and the way back up; long paths keep the first and last two levels and fold the middle into a menu.
- [Menu bar](https://beamline.io/components/menubar): A desktop-style File / Edit / View bar for editor-like apps; each menu takes the same rows as the dropdown menu, and pointing moves between open menus.
- [Navigation menu](https://beamline.io/components/navigation-menu): A site or docs header whose sections open into one panel that resizes and slides between them; NavigationMenuCard is the standard link row.
- [Sidebar](https://beamline.io/components/sidebar): The app's main navigation: sections, items with counts and one level of sub-pages, an icon rail with tooltips (⌘B, the trigger or the edge), and a sheet…
- [Stepper](https://beamline.io/components/stepper): Where someone is in a multi-step flow: done steps carry a check, the current one a ring, and the line between marks fills as steps complete.
- [Tabs](https://beamline.io/components/tabs): Switches between panels of one object; one indicator slides to the active tab, counts sit beside labels, and a long row scrolls instead of wrapping.
- [Tree view](https://beamline.io/components/tree-view): Nested folders and records with the full tree keyboard model (arrows, Home/End, *, type to jump), depth guides, counts and animated opening.
- [User menu](https://beamline.io/components/user-menu): The account menu behind the avatar: who is signed in, status, theme, account pages and sign out with progress; a bottom sheet on phones.
