Rails paginate array items one-by-one instead of page-by-page
- by hnovick
Hi Guys,
I have a group of assets, let's call them "practitioners".
I'm displaying these practitioners in the header of a calendar interface.
There are 7 columns to the calendar. 7 columns = 7 practitioners per view/page.
Right now:
if the first page shows you practitioners 1-7, when you go the next page you will see practitioners 8-15, next page 16-23, etc. etc.
i am wondering how to page the practitioners so that if the first page shows you practitioners 1-7, the next page will show you practitioners 2-8, then 3-9, etc. etc.
i would greatly appreciate any help you can offer.
here is the rails code i am working with.
best regards,

# get the default sort order
sort_order = RESOURCE_SORT_ORDER
# if we've been given asset ids, start our list with them
unless params[:asset_ids].blank?
params[:asset_ids] = params[:asset_ids].values unless params[:asset_ids].is_a?(Array)
sort_order = "#{params[:asset_ids].collect{|id| "service_provider_resources.id = #{id} DESC"}.join(",")}, #{sort_order}"
end
@asset_set = @provider.active_resources(:include => {:active_services => :latest_approved_version}).paginate(
:per_page => RESOURCES_IN_DAY_VIEW,
:page => params[:page],
:order => sort_order
)
