ListView Paging

The ListView component can page the entire data source automatically. You can, alternatively, hook to an event and fetch each page of data yourself.

To enable paging set the Pageable parameter of the listview to true.

You can also control the number of items rendered at once through the PageSize parameter (defaults to 10).

The listview exposes two relevant events:

• PageChanged - you can use this to react to the user changing the page. You can find an example in the Events article.
• OnRead - you can use this to perform the read operation yourself on demand, instead of providing the entire data source at once. You can read more about this in the Manual Data Source Operations article.

Enable Paging in the ListView component and set a custom page size

@* The Listview can page the entire data source your provide to it so only certain items are rendered at once *@

<TelerikListView Data="@ListViewData" Pageable="true" PageSize="15">
    <Template>
        <div class="listview-item">
            <strong>@context.Name</strong>
        </div>
    </Template>
</TelerikListView>

@code{
    List<SampleData> ListViewData { get; set; } = Enumerable.Range(1, 250).Select(x => new SampleData
    {
        Id = x,
        Name = $"Name {x}"
    }).ToList();

    public class SampleData
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; }
    }
}

You can optimize database queries in two ways:

• Use an IQueryable<MyModel> collection for the listview Data. The listview will build a LINQ expression internally that will be resolved only when needed. This can be useful when the Data comes from something like an EntityFramework context.
• Implement manual data source operations and implement the desired query yourself. In a future version, the DataSourceRequest object will become serializable so you can send it directly over HTTP to a controller and use the LINQ queries it will build for you.
