I have two models, User and Comment, Each User can have multiple Comment, I can call paginate(3) on User and get 3 User in output per page but I need same thing as User for comments in UserCollection. Is it possible to limit comments that comes by UserCollection by paginating them too?

CodePudding user response：

Yes you can, you just have to add in the third parameter of pageName to the paginate method to differentiate between them.

Something like:

$users->paginate($perPage, ['*'], 'users')
$comments->paginate($perPage, ['*'], 'comments_'. $user_id)

Note: While you can do this, I personally would just fetch the first 3/5 comments and then have a button saying click to load more and then have a separate route that you call via an AJAX request to get them.
