Last active March 22, 2017 23:08
will_paginate (3.0.7) custom renderer. The commented out code is the default code for this version of the gem. Using `super` as written below will return the default values. This lets you over-ride and test separately.
# will_paginate(collection, renderer: PaginationCustomLinkRenderer)
class PaginationCustomLinkRenderer < WillPaginate::ActionView::LinkRenderer
def prepare(collection, options, template)
options[:params] ||= {}
options[:params]['_'] = nil
options[:page_links] ||= false
options[:class] ||= "pagination"
super(collection, options, template)
end

Algolia Search Debounce Example (using debounce with the algolia instant search.)

queryHook is a hook function that provides the query, and the search callback. You can do your own debouncing or special logic here.

default debounce example:

var timeout = 500;

var queryHook = _.debounce(function(query, search){
  search(query)
},timeout);
