How to handle exception when there is no 'locator'?

[xcodeac]

Hi, can you please suggest how to handle exceptions where there is no results / no 'locator' element in the ajax response? Getting the below error:

Uncaught Error: Pagination: dataSource.items is undefined. , as the locator element was 'item' for my case.

Thanks in advance.

@hiiamninna Paginationjs doesn't have a way to handle "locator" exceptions, but I think the right way to handle it is to set a correct "locator" value when a "locator" exception occurs, and usually the exception can be immediately discovered at initialization.

@hiiamninna I just released 2.6.0 to support catching errors when rendering pagination, below is an example:

$('#demo').pagination({
    dataSource: 'https://yoursite.com/path/to',
    locator: 'items',
    callback: function(data, pagination) {
        // ...
    },
    onError: function(e, errorType) {
        // do something
        // in this case, errorType will be `ajaxSuccessHandlerError`
    },
})

docs: http://pagination.js.org/docs/index.html#onError

Oh, thank you @superRaytin

I have solved it btw, from the backend I initialize the nil locator with empty array and it worked thank you again for your explanation
