Hi joaolucas89,

the zf-apigility-doctrine module contains filters like you describe. Read the documentation here for details: https://github.com/zfcampus/zf-apigility-doctrine

The filters are a good idea in theory but in practice it's not as beneficial. For instance, you don't want to allow your users to query on just anything. So, I'm pulling them into their own repository so you can apply the filters to any Query Builder object.

Stay tuned and/or come contribute, Tom

zf-apigility-doctrine provide collection attributes like total, page_count, limit ?

If your collection is a Zend\Paginator\Paginator instance you will have full pagination options. You can read on this here in the documentationof the zf-rest module.

If you make your collection to an instance of Countable then the Hal plugin will automatically count your total items and add a total_items key in the rendered result. This happens because the Hal plugin is checking this while rendering the collection.
