+Linaro Django Pagination
+========================
-``django-pagination`` allows for easy Digg-style pagination without modifying
-your views.

+ :target: https://travis-ci.org/zyga/django-pagination
-There are really 5 steps to setting it up with your projects (not including
-installation, which is covered in INSTALL.txt in this same directory.)

-1. List this application in the ``INSTALLED_APPS`` portion of your settings
- file. Your settings file might look something like::
-
- INSTALLED_APPS = (
- # ...
- 'pagination',
- )
+About the fork
+--------------
-2. Install the pagination middleware. Your settings file might look something
- like::
-
- MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
- # ...
- 'pagination.middleware.PaginationMiddleware',
- )
+This project is a fork of apparently dead "django-pagination" project
+originally written by 'Eric Florenzano'. It is maintained by the Linaro
+Validation/Infrastructure team. Latest releases can be found on launchpad and
+pypi.
+
+We are in the process of deciding how to properly host and manage the project.
+Feel free to hop to #linaro on irc.freenode.net and ask either 'zyga' or
+'mwhudson' about this.
-3. If it's not already added in your setup, add the request context processor.
- Note that context processors are set by default implicitly, so to set them
- explicitly, you need to copy and paste this code into your under
- the value TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS::
-
- ("django.core.context_processors.auth",
- "django.core.context_processors.debug",
- "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
- "django.core.context_processors.media",
- "django.core.context_processors.request")
-4. Add this line at the top of your template to load the pagination tags:
+About top-level package name change
+-----------------------------------
+The top level package name was changed from `pagination` to
+`linaro-django-pagination`. I did this to ensure that existing users of the
+original package could easily transition, on their own terms. Since both
+packages are co-installable you are free to check things out and see if the new
+pagination code works well for you or not.
- {% load pagination_tags %}
+Also, since the implementation of the actual tags was rewritten I would not
+feel entirely confident that the new package is a drop-in replacement.
-5. Decide on a variable that you would like to paginate, and use the
- autopaginate tag on that variable before iterating over it. This could
- take one of two forms (using the canonical ``object_list`` as an example
- variable):
-
- {% autopaginate object_list %}
-
- This assumes that you would like to have the default 20 results per page.
- If you would like to specify your own amount of results per page, you can
- specify that like so:
-
- {% autopaginate object_list 10 %}
-
- Note that this replaces ``object_list`` with the list for the current page, so
- you can iterate over the ``object_list`` like you normally would.
-

-6. Now you want to display the current page and the available pages, so
- somewhere after having used autopaginate, use the paginate inclusion tag:
-
- {% paginate %}
-
- This does not take any arguments, but does assume that you have already
- called autopaginate, so make sure to do so first.
+We would like to welcome any and all contributors. Please use the pull request
+feature on github.
-That's it! You have now paginated ``object_list`` and given users of the site
-a way to navigate between the different pages--all without touching your views.
