Querystring fields
==================
Tables pass data via the querystring to indicate ordering and pagination
preferences.
The names of the querystring variables are configurable via the options:
- ``order_by_field`` -- default: ``"sort"``
- ``page_field`` -- default: ``"page"``
- ``per_page_field`` -- default: ``"per_page"``, **note:** this field currently
isn't used by ``{% render_table %}``
Each of these can be specified in three places:
- ``Table.Meta.foo``
- ``Table(..., foo=...)``
- ``Table(...).foo = ...``
If you're using multiple tables on a single page, you'll want to prefix these
fields with a table-specific name. e.g.
.. sourcecode:: python
def people_listing(request):
config = RequestConfig(request)
table1 = PeopleTable(Person.objects.all(), prefix="1-") # prefix specified
table2 = PeopleTable(Person.objects.all(), prefix="2-") # prefix specified
config.configure(table1)
config.configure(table2)
return render(request, "people_listing.html",
{"table1": table1, "table2": table2})
