Instead of 15 it is Fetching all the documents from the collection

[narimetisaigopi]

return PaginateFirestore( //item builder type is compulsory. itemBuilder: (context, documentSnapshots, index) { final data = documentSnapshots[index].data() as Map; print("index $index"); return Expanded( child: ListTile( leading: CircleAvatar(child: Icon(Icons.person)), title: data == null ? Text('Error in data') : Text(""), subtitle: Text(""), ), ); }, // orderBy is compulsory to enable pagination query: FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('users').orderBy('name'), //Change types accordingly itemBuilderType: PaginateBuilderType.listView, shrinkWrap: false, // to fetch real-time data isLive: true, );

If you're fetching all of the documents, why is there a need to use pagination?

Revert back to standard get() or snapshots() then. Your goal is counter-intuitive to this packages goals lol.

He wanted to use the package for pagination + snapshot feature but the pagination feature isnt working. Is there any fix for this?

@vedartm @austinn @ghprod @atrope @adamdupuis @claudemircasa Hi, I am experiencing the same issue. Can someone help? I put the itemsPerPage as 1 and it is still fetching all the results without scrolling the list.

PaginateFirestore(
                        scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
                        shrinkWrap: true,
                        itemsPerPage: 3,
                        isLive: true,
                        itemBuilder: (context, documentSnapshots, index) {
                          MyWorldModel data = MyWorldModel.fromJson(documentSnapshots[index].data());
                          return GestureDetector(
                            onTap: () async {
                              UserModel umdl =
                              await authController.getAUser(data.id);
                              Get.to(() => Home(showAbleUserData: umdl));
                            },
                            child: MyWorldTiles(
                              profileImage: data.profileImage,
                              personName: data.personName,
                              department: data.profession,
                              distance: data.distance,
                            ),
                          );
                        },
                        query: firebaseFirestore
                            .collection('Users')
                            .doc(authController.userModel.value.id)
                            .collection('TheyLikedMe')
                            .orderBy('id'),
                        itemBuilderType: PaginateBuilderType.listView,
                      ),

I think that is when someone needs pagination. now the thing is how to achieve that using this package? because I haven't been able to find clear documentation about that. and if it is to be achieved simply as the Readme of the package defines, it doesn't work like that. It fetches all the documents.

@waqadArshad Thanks for using the package. I think the problem is you are setting shrinkWrap to true. It expanded the list internally and triggers the end of the page call all at once.

Set it to false and it should work fine.

Hi @vedartm, I did try removing it and also setting it to false with the item count of 1 (because right now I don't have a long list) to test this. but still, all the docs got fetched.

PaginateFirestore(
                  scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
                  shrinkWrap: false,
                  itemsPerPage: 1,
                  isLive: true,
                  itemBuilder: (context, documentSnapshots, index) {
                    MyWorldModel data =
                        MyWorldModel.fromJson(documentSnapshots[index].data());
                    return GestureDetector(
                      onTap: () async {
                        UserModel umdl = await authController.getAUser(data.id);
                        Get.to(() => Home(showAbleUserData: umdl));
                      },
                      child: MyWorldTiles(
                        profileImage: data.profileImage,
                        personName: data.personName,
                      ),
                    );
                  },
                  // orderBy is compulsary to enable pagination
                  query: firebaseFirestore
                      .collection('Users')
                      .doc(authController.userModel.value.id)
                      .collection('MyMatches')
                      .orderBy('id'),
                  itemBuilderType: PaginateBuilderType.listView,
                ),
