For full details, see [the pagination documentation][pagination]. + +Note that as a result of this work a number of settings keys and generic view attributes are now moved to pending deprecation. Controlling pagination styles is now largely handled by overriding a pagination class and modifying its configuration attributes. + +* The `PAGINATE_BY` settings key will continue to work but is now pending deprecation. The more obviously named `PAGE_SIZE` settings key should now be used instead. +* The `PAGINATE_BY_PARAM`, `MAX_PAGINATE_BY` settings keys will continue to work but are now pending deprecation, in favor of setting configuration attributes on the configured pagination class. +* The `paginate_by`, `page_query_param`, `paginate_by_param` and `max_paginate_by` generic view attributes will continue to work but are now pending deprecation, in favor of setting configuration attributes on the configured pagination class. +* The `pagination_serializer_class` view attribute and `DEFAULT_PAGINATION_SERIALIZER_CLASS` settings key **are no longer valid**. The pagination API does not use serializers to determine the output format, and you'll need to instead override the `get_paginated_response` method on a pagination class in order to specify how the output format is controlled. + #### New pagination schemes. Until now, there has only been a single built-in pagination style in REST framework. We now have page, limit/offset and cursor based schemes included by default. |
