My situation is like... I have method in my model, that selects all articles from the database and then return them as an array. After that I save that array in new variable, then pass that variable to the view (this all happened from controller). In view I make a loop through array to display articles. I want to have pagination below my articles. What's the best way to do it using Pagination class? Where to put what?

I do it this way:

public function action_index($current_page = 1)
&#123;
 $config = array(
  'pagination_url' => \Uri::create('blog/home/'),
  'total_items' => Model_Article::count(),
  'per_page' => \Settings::get('blog.perpage'),
  'current_page' => (int) $current_page,
 );

 \Pagination::set_config($config);

 $filters = array(
  'limit' => \Pagination::$per_page,
  'offset' => \Pagination::$offset
 );
 $articles = Model_Article::get_all($filters);
 
 if(!$articles)
 &#123;
  \Request::show_404();
 }

 $data = array('articles' => $articles, 'pagination' => \Pagination::create_links());

 $this->response->body(\View::factory('home_view', $data));
}

<div id="content">

 <?php foreach($articles as $article) : ?>

  <h3><?php echo $article['title']; ?></h3>

 <?php endforeach; ?>

 <div class="pagination">
  <?php echo $pagination; ?>
 </div>

</div><!-- #content -->
