Why is offset = skip and limit = offset? As far as i can tell, mysql's limit requires a limit as well as. In postgresql there is the limit and offset keywords which will allow very easy pagination of result sets.
Why don't you set offset and limit directly? First the query will execute and then the records after the offset will be returned. What is the equivalent syntax for sql server?
0 offset is majorly used to support pagination in mysql select statements. I would like to construct a query that displays all the results in a table, but is offset by 5 from the start of the table. For example, in another type of sql database, it's possible to do: An offset within an array or other data structure object is an integer indicating the distance (displacement) between the beginning of the object and a given element or point,.
In that case, the sql offset will have to be calculated. Given that get_items does not seem to be a standard model method, it's probably calculated in there;
