They are doing something wrong. Say what you want about their commercial strategy, the product itself is pretty good. It can definitely do pagination, and I hope they are not doing skip and limit.
Yeah, you can do pagination, but you need two request : one to select everything, the second to only return the results between id x and id y. Needless to say, the performances are far from ideal.
But in recent version you do skip and take x, which is far easier to write. But my codebase date back to the 2000’s, and it uses the old ways.
As an example, an SQL request to filter on an handful of parameters, and paginate, easily amount to 40-50 lines of SQL. And that’s the easy ones, because some request uses multiple view, in which case I wouldn’t be surprised to find a request doing more than 100 lines of SQL, maybe without even factoring the view in.
That’s some funky code, pagination is much easier than that, unless there’s something else going on.
Probably, but I won’t touch that shit unless I have no way doing otherwise.
Edit : As an example, I got an “add or update” stored procedure that start line 5, and ends line… 226.
