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. Why is offset = skip and limit = offset? For example, in another type of sql database, it's possible to do:
0 offset is majorly used to support pagination in mysql select statements. Is there any way in sql server to get the results starting at a given offset? What is the equivalent syntax for sql server?
As far as i can tell, mysql's limit requires a limit as well as. In that case, the sql offset will have to be calculated. Why don't you set offset and limit directly? First the query will execute and then the records after the offset will be returned.
Given that get_items does not seem to be a standard model method, it's probably calculated in there; In postgresql there is the limit and offset keywords which will allow very easy pagination of result sets.
