TokenizedDataPage<T>

Data transfer object that is used to pass the results of paginated queries.

Description

The TokenizedDataPageData allows you to create a transfer object that is used to pass the results of paginated queries.

Important points

  • This object contains the items of the retrieved page and the total number of items (optional).
  • Additionally, the data page returns a token that has to be passed to the next search as a starting point.
  • Most often, this object type is used to send responses to paginated queries.
  • Pagination parameters are defined by a TokenizedPagingParams object.
    • The token parameter in the TokenizedPagingParams defines where to start the search.
    • The takes parameter sets the number of items to be returned in the page.
  • The optional total parameter tells to return the total number of items in the query.
  • However, not all implementations support the total parameter, because its generation may lead to severe performance implications.

Constructors

Creates a new instance of data page and assigns its values.

public TokenizedDataPage(List<T> data = null, string token=null, int total = default(int))

  • data: List<T> - list of items from the retrieved page.
  • token: string - (optional) token used to define a starting point for the next search.
  • total: int - (optional) total number of objects in the result.

Properties

Examples

    "123",
    FilterParams.FromTuples("completed": true),
    new TokenizedPagingParams(null, 100, true)
);
