will_paginate JSON support?

Asked 2011-01-15T10:54:37.573

I wonder if anyone could please tell me if will_paginate can support JSON out of the box or if this has to be hacked?

I would like to add page data to the JSON responses while will_paginate manages pagination.

ruby-on-rails ruby json rubygems will-paginate

will_paginate just gets the records back in a sliced manner. So it just gets an array from your database.

When you render as json, that's rails going over the array of objects and calling as_json on them.

So yes, you can will_paginate rendering out as json.
