How can I add pagination on shopify API products with rails gem

I'm using the rails gem shopify API gem to fetch shopify products. I'm fetching products like this:

ShopifyAPI::Product.find(:all, params: { page: parmas[:page], 
                                          limit: 10, 
                                          title: params[:search]
                                        })

this API returns products searched by title with limit 10. So How can I add pagination on my view or can I use will_paginate gem for it? Please help!, thanks! in advance.

I think is late for your work. But this how to it:

Example

@orders = ShopifyAPI::Order.find(:all, :params => {:status => "any", :limit => 3, :order => "created_at DESC" })
@orders.each do |order|

  id = order.id
  name = order.name
end

while @orders.next_page?
  @orders = @orders.fetch_next_page
  @orders.each do |order|

    id = order.id
    name = order.name
  end
end

So you can create paginable array based on what you receive in each loop. The first call defines the limit for all subsequents call to fetch_next_page. In my case each page contain 3 element, you can go up to 250.

Another way is to navigate using shopify "next_page_info" parameter, so you only need to fetch the first query and include all filters, then just navigate back/fwd with page infos(previous_page_info or next_page_info).

Example 2
first_batch_products = ShopifyAPI::Product.find(:all, params: { limit: 50 })
  second_batch_products = ShopifyAPI::Product.find(:all, params: { limit: 50, page_info: first_batch_products.next_page_info })

next_page_info = @orders.next_page_info
prev_page_info = @orders.previous_page_info

You can use Kaminari.paginate_array(*args) with array(array of Shopify products) as first argument and with option as hash, where you have to set value to total_count key.

Full example: 

@paginatable_array = Kaminari.paginate_array(@shopify_products, total_count:145).page(1).per(10)

use 1 as argument to .page method, because your array will contain only 10 objects(if limit is 10 and 10 objects in view) In view just use helper method

<%= paginate @paginatable_array %>

I hope that it will help!
