Adding pagination

When you start adding content to your blog, you might easily reach the point where tens or hundreds of posts are stored in your database. Instead of displaying all the posts on a single page, you may want to split the list of posts across several pages. This can be achieved through pagination. You can define the number of posts you want to be displayed per page and retrieve the posts that correspond to the page requested by the user. Django has a built-in pagination class that allows you to manage paginated data easily.

Edit the views.py file of the blog application to import the Django paginator classes and modify the post_list view, as follows:

from django.core.paginator import Paginator, EmptyPage,\
                                  PageNotAnInteger
def post_list(request):
    object_list = Post.published.all()
    paginator = Paginator(object_list, 3) # 3 posts in each page
    page = request.GET.get('page')
    try:
        posts = paginator...
