Multiple material pagination in one component does

Question

I try to create a component which includes two dataTables each of it with another dataSource. My Tables aren't visible right after the component is loaded because of my *ngIf so that i couldn't use ngAfterViewInit() instead i'm using a solution a user pointed out on Github:

  private paginator: MatPaginator;
  private reportingPaginator: MatPaginator;
  private sort: MatSort;
  private reportingSort: MatSort;

  @ViewChild(MatSort) set matSort(ms: MatSort) {
    this.sort = ms;
    this.reportingSort = ms;
    this.setDataSourceAttributes();
  }

  @ViewChild(MatPaginator) set matPaginator(mp: MatPaginator) {
    this.paginator = mp;
    this.reportingPaginator = mp;
    this.setDataSourceAttributes();
  }

  setDataSourceAttributes() {

      this.dataSource.paginator = this.paginator;
      this.dataSource.sort = this.sort;

      this.reportingDataSource.paginator = this.reportingPaginator;
      this.reportingDataSource.sort = this.reportingSort;

}

But i still can't get it to work. My Pagination doesn't work, when both paginators are included into the @ViewChild(MatPaginator). If i only include one of the paginators

@ViewChild(MatPaginator) set matPaginator(mp: MatPaginator) {
    this.reportingPaginator = mp;
    this.setDataSourceAttributes();
}

or

@ViewChild(MatPaginator) set matPaginator(mp: MatPaginator) {
    this.paginator = mp;
    this.setDataSourceAttributes();
}

the one i included works fine! So what do i need to do to get both paginators work?

For mutiple MatPaginator and MatSort components present in single page you need yo use

@ViewChildren(MatPaginator) paginator = new QueryList<MatPaginator>();
@ViewChildren(MatSort) sort = new QueryList<MatSort>();

in your code which will return you list of MatSort and MatPaginator defined in the order in which it is present int your page. Below is the complete implemetation

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild, ViewChildren, AfterViewInit, QueryList } from '@angular/core';
import { MatTableDataSource, MatSort, MatPaginator } from '@angular/material';

export interface AssignmentElement {
  assignmentId: number;
  action: string;
  userName: string;
  roleName: string;
  enabled: string;
  createdOn: string;
  createdBy: string;
  modifiedOn: string;
  modifiedBy: string;
  status: string;
}

export interface RoleElement {
  roleId: number;
  action: string;
  roleName: string;
  roleDescription: string;
  createdOn: string;
  createdBy: string;
  modifiedOn: string;
  modifiedBy: string;
  status: string;
}

export const ASSIGNMENT_ELEMENT_DATA: AssignmentElement[] = [
  { assignmentId: 1, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 2, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 3, action: 'Grant', userName: 'ADummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 4, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 8, action: 'Grant', userName: 'BDummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 1, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 12, action: 'Grant', userName: 'ZDummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 12, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 19, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 111, action: 'Grant', userName: 'PDummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 122, action: 'Grant', userName: 'Dummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { assignmentId: 133, action: 'Grant', userName: 'QDummy', roleName: 'admin', enabled: 'Y', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' }

];

export const ROLE_ELEMENT_DATA: RoleElement[] = [
  { roleId: 1, action: 'Create', roleName: 'admin', roleDescription: 'This is test role', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { roleId: 3, action: 'Create', roleName: 'cadmin', roleDescription: 'This is test role', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { roleId: 1, action: 'Create', roleName: 'admin', roleDescription: 'This is test role', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { roleId: 5, action: 'Create', roleName: 'vadmin', roleDescription: 'This is test role', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { roleId: 4, action: 'Create', roleName: 'zadmin', roleDescription: 'This is test role', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' },
  { roleId: 1, action: 'Create', roleName: 'admin', roleDescription: 'This is test role', createdOn: '21-Feb-2018', createdBy: 'Dummy', modifiedOn: '', modifiedBy: '', status: 'PENDING' }
];

@Component({
  selector: 'app-myqueue',
  templateUrl: './myqueue.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./myqueue.component.css']
})
export class MyqueueComponent implements OnInit, AfterViewInit {

  dataSource1: MatTableDataSource<AssignmentElement>;
  dataSource2: MatTableDataSource<RoleElement>;
  @ViewChildren(MatPaginator) paginator = new QueryList<MatPaginator>();
  @ViewChildren(MatSort) sort = new QueryList<MatSort>();

  assignmentColumn: string[] = [
    'select', 'assignmentId', 'action', 'userName', 'roleName', 'enabled', 'createdOn', 'createdBy', 'modifiedOn', 'modifiedBy', 'status'
  ];
  roleColumn: string[] = [
    'select', 'roleId', 'action', 'roleName', 'roleDescription', 'createdOn', 'createdBy', 'modifiedOn', 'modifiedBy', 'status'
  ];

  constructor() {
    this.dataSource1 = new MatTableDataSource<AssignmentElement>(ASSIGNMENT_ELEMENT_DATA);
    this.dataSource2 = new MatTableDataSource<RoleElement>(ROLE_ELEMENT_DATA);
  }

  ngOnInit() {
  }

  ngAfterViewInit() {
    this.dataSource1.paginator = this.paginator.toArray()[0];
    this.dataSource1.sort = this.sort.toArray()[0];
    this.dataSource2.paginator = this.paginator.toArray()[1];
    this.dataSource2.sort = this.sort.toArray()[1];
  }

}

You can retrieve them by #id also:

In your HTML:

<mat-paginator #categoryPaginator [pageSizeOptions]="[15]" hidePageSize="true" showFirstLastButtons="false"></mat-paginator>

In your component TS:

@ViewChild('categoryPaginator', { read: MatPaginator }) categoryPaginator: MatPaginator;
