How pagination can be done in ruby on rails 3.1?

I heard that Pagination is included automatically for all controllers? How can it be implemented?

The more recent kaminari gem can be used in Rails 3. You can refer https://github.com/amatsuda/kaminari

it is very simple to use.

Put this line in your Gemfile:

gem 'kaminari'

Then do bundle install

Typically, your controller code will look like this:

@users = User.order(:name).page params[:page]

On the views Just call the paginate helper:

<%= paginate @users %>

Now you can see the paginated result..

As Don Roby said, there are several pagination gems and will_paginate and Kaminari are 2 popular ones. You can find some nice tutorial on pagination (incl. using these 2 gems) here : http://railscasts.com/episodes?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search=pagination

As far as I know, there's nothing included automatically. I believe there was built-in pagination in much earlier versions of Rails.

There are (at least) two gems that can be installed to do pagination. The will_paginate gem has been around for years and can be used in Rails 2 or 3. The more recent kaminari gem can be used in Rails 3.
