Pylons is a really nice web framework to create complex web sites in Python easily. I was not entirely happy with the old "pagination" module so I took the burden to rewrite it and finally came up with a "paginate" module that is nowadays part of the "webhelpers" Python package that is very useful in conjunction with Pylons.
I have written an introduction chapter on the module as part of the Pylons/Pyramid documentation.

Just wanted to drop a little thank you note. Just managed to implement your paginating module into my little project. Although it took me quite some time to realize that I probably should be upgrading my webhelpers-module instead of trying to work my way around the old one (I was desperately looking for a an equivalent to the missing PageURL function in this example https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/webhelpers/dev/modules/paginate.html). But now it works like a charm, thank you very much!
By the way, the links in this short article aren't working. But I guess your introduction chapter would be the one I found using the link above?
Thanks again and with best regards, Lukas

Hi Lukas,
thanks for the hint. I have corrected the link in my tiny article above. There has been some discussion on making paginate more versatile and less dependent on Pylons/Pyramid. The problem is to make the link generation function generic and so far nobody has had the right idea on that. Feel free to contribute at https://bitbucket.org/bbangert/webhelpers
