What are some effective pagination techniques in TypeORM?

In TypeORM, you can use techniques like offset-based pagination, cursor-based pagination, and keyset pagination. Would you like to know more about any specific technique?

Can you explain offset-based pagination?

Sure! Offset-based pagination retrieves a specific number of records starting from a given offset. For example, if you want to get records 11-20, you would set the limit to 10 and the offset to 10.

What are the pros and cons of using cursor-based pagination?

Cursor-based pagination is efficient for large datasets as it avoids the performance hit of offset. However, it can be more complex to implement and may not support jumping to arbitrary pages.

How do I implement keyset pagination in TypeORM?

To implement keyset pagination, you typically use a unique identifier to fetch the next set of records. You can use a query with a WHERE clause that filters based on the last retrieved record's identifier.
