Are pagination queries are possible with Dapper?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is noway a bug, but rather a question: is pagination on SO is done with 
Dapper as well?

Does it explicitly provide any means for that? Or should one resort to 
low-level t-sql practices?

The trouble with the pagination stuff is that introduces a db dependent layer. 

for sql server you use the nested query row_number trick, in denali we have 
offset which simplifies 

oracle and mysql have offset and limit 

my current recommendation would be for us to ship a contrib library with 
helpers for this, but it will not be in core dapper

Here's the code I'm using for MSSQL:

    int pageIndex = 0;
    int pageSize = 2;

    int lower = (pageIndex * pageSize) + 1;
    int upper = (pageIndex * pageSize) + pageSize;

    string query =
        @"
        select * from (select p.*, row_number() over (order by Title) as rownum, count(*) over() as TotalRows 
        from portfolioprojects as p where p.Deleted = 0) seq 
        where seq.rownum between @x and @y";

    var results =
        cn.Query(query, new { x = lower, y = upper });

It would be nice to have a helper for this (for each provider).

You should checkout https://github.com/TroyGoode/PagedList it's awesome
and works pretty great combined with dapper.
