It seems Laravel pagination does not working properly with group by clause. For example:
$users = Subject::select(DB::raw('subjects.*, count(user_subjects.id) as total_users'))
->join('user_subjects', 'user_subjects.subject_id', '=', 'subjects.id')
->whereNull('user_subjects.deleted_at')
->groupBy('subjects.id')
->orderBy('subjects.updated_at', 'desc')
->paginate(25);
Produced
select subjects.*, count(user_subjects.id) as total_users
from `subjects` inner join `user_subjects` on `user_subjects`.`subject_id` = `subjects`.`id`
where `subjects`.`deleted_at` is null and `user_subjects`.`deleted_at` is null
group by `subjects`.`id`
order by `subjects`.`updated_at` desc
note that, there is no limit
clause on the query.
Working fine if no group by clause in the query:
$users = Subject::select(DB::raw('subjects.*, count(user_subjects.id) as total_users'))
->join('user_subjects', 'user_subjects.subject_id', '=', 'subjects.id')
->whereNull('user_subjects.deleted_at')
->orderBy('subjects.updated_at', 'desc')
->paginate(25);
produced the following query:
select subjects.*, count(user_subjects.id) as total_users from `subjects`
inner join `user_subjects` on `user_subjects`.`subject_id` = `subjects`.`id`
where `subjects`.`deleted_at` is null and `user_subjects`.`deleted_at` is null
order by `subjects`.`updated_at` desc
limit 25 offset 0
does anyone has any idea how can i fix this?
Check the documentation https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/pagination
Currently, pagination operations that use a
groupBy
statement cannot be executed efficiently by Laravel. If you need to use agroupBy
with a paginated result set, it is recommended that you query the database and create a paginator manually.
