How does pagination work in Django's REST framework?

Pagination in Django's REST framework allows you to limit the number of items returned in a response, making it easier to manage large datasets.

What are the different types of pagination available?

Django REST framework supports several pagination styles, including LimitOffsetPagination, PageNumberPagination, and CursorPagination.

Can you give me an example of how to implement page number pagination?

Sure! You can implement PageNumberPagination by setting it in your settings.py and using it in your views. Here's a quick example:

from rest_framework.pagination import PageNumberPagination

class CustomPagination(PageNumberPagination):
    page_size = 10

# In your view
class MyViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = MyModel.objects.all()
    pagination_class = CustomPagination
