A Grid component can take advantage of the offset and limit parameters described in the previous section by using the setDataProvider method, as follows:
grid.setDataProvider( (sortOrders, offset, limit) -> CallRepository.findAll(offset, limit).stream(), () -> CallRepository.count() );
The previous code defines two lambda expressions:
- (sortOrders, offset, limit) -> service.find(...): This lambda expression should return all the items used in slice defined by the offset and limit parameters (we will see how to use the sortOrders parameters later)
- () -> service.count(): This lambda expression should return the total count of items available with no slices
The setDataProvider method we used in the previous example receives an instance of FetchItemsCallback, a functional interface that defines a method to fetch...
