Infinite scroll

[saulfrr]

Hi, I have been testing the library and I can get hits from TypeSense server. Now, is there a way in the library to implement infinite scroll?

Regards.

Hey there! Typesense server takes care of paginations for you if you need them. You can implement them in swift by adding the page and perPage search parameters to your SearchParameters object. Reference

You can now use these as limit and offset to fetch more results at the end of scroll. Eg: set perPage to a constant (say 10) and increment page once we hit bottom of list.

Hi,

Yes, that is how I did it. Thanks.

     let results = data?.results[0]
            
            if let pageNumber = results?.page {
                  self.nextPageNumber = pageNumber + 1
            }

Now, in the SwiftUI version of the example, when you make a search and get some hits, you are able to scroll down through the results. In the UIKit version the scroll is stuck after you get some hits back.

Regards.

Ok, in ViewController.swift I used:

let searchController = UISearchController(searchResultsController: nil)

Instead of:

let searchController = UISearchController(searchResultsController: HitsViewController())

And now it is able to scroll after getting some hits back.
