Provide show_totals option in Config for unbounded data
joeyrosztoczy opened this issue · comments
Hey man! Hope things are good!
I'm running a local fork of Scrivener/Scrivener_Ecto right now that adds a show_totals: boolean field to the Config struct.
The default is true, since I only turn it off for certain tables.
The use case is when working with unbounded data (like a sensor reading table in postgres, or gps points, etc), calculating the totals can cause DB timeouts.
In particular, I think pagination has really nice use cases w/ the new Flow module for processing large sets of data.
If you like the idea, I can submit a PR w/ tests to the repos monday! Let me know. Scrivener is solid by the way, thanks for creating it!
@joeyrosztoczy as long as this can be done in a backwards compatible manner I'd be happy to see a PR. Thanks!
Please use options (added in 2.2.0).
