To simulate paging using REST you can do the following:
Use the $skip=n
parameter to skip the first n
entries according to the $orderby
parameter
Use the $top=n
parameter to return the top n
entries according to the $orderby
and $skip
parameters.
var endpointUrl = "/_api/lists('guid')/items"; // SP2010: "/_vti_bin/ListData.svc/ListName";
$.getJSON(
endpointUrl + "?$orderby=Id&$top=1000",
function(data){
processData(data); // you can do something with the results here
var count = data.d.results.length;
getNextBatch(count, processData, onComplete); // fetch next page
}
);
function getNextBatch(totalSoFar, processResults, onCompleteCallback){
$.getJSON(
endpointUrl + "?$orderby=Id&$skip="+totalSoFar+"&$top=1000",
function(data){
var count = data.d.results.length;
if(count > 0){
processResults(data); // do something with results
getNextBatch(totalSoFar+count, callback); // fetch next page
}else{
onCompleteCallback();
}
}
);
}
