Custom function parameters

General

I’m using a custom function to take the total number of pages and produce an array using javascript

The array that spits out looks a bit like this:

[
	{
		"value": "«",
		"linkTo": 1
	},
	{
		"value": "‹",
		"linkTo": 1
	},
	{
		"value": "1",
		"active": true,
		"linkTo": 1
	},
	{
		"value": "2",
		"active": false,
		"linkTo": 2
	},
	{
		"value": "3",
		"active": false,
		"linkTo": 3
	},
	{
		"value": "…"
	},
	{
		"value": "16",
		"linkTo": 16
	},
	{
		"value": "›",
		"linkTo": 2
	},
	{
		"value": "»",
		"linkTo": 16
	}
]

I can pass the function the pageCount from my REST API meta section. I’d like to pass the query params to the function too. I can get them by reading the window url in javascript, but it would be cleaner to get them in the function call. Is there a way to pass more than one parameter to the function “data”?

Function “data” or you meant “pagination”

What I want to do, can’t figure out is something like this:

function('pagination', get('query').get('p'))

The pagination function is passed a data variable with one value from get(‘pageCount’). I want to pass it two variables.
Inside of the pagination function, the first line looks like this:

let pageCount = data.value;

// I want it to look more like this:
let pageCount = data.value.pageCount;
let currentPage = data.value.currentPage;

My current approach is to bake this into the top of the function, and it feels like there is a better way:

  const currentURL = window.location.href;
  const searchParams = new URLSearchParams(new URL(currentURL).search);
  const currentPage = parseInt(searchParams.get('p'), 10) || 1;

Did that make sense?

Currently nesting functions is not possible, but we left the window open for the implementation in future.

What you can do for now, is use Divhunt built-in functions.

$dh.query() returns an object with all GET params (this is what you need)
$dh.site() returns object of site data like ID, name, etc
$dh.domain() returns domain data, etc
$dh.client() returns client data (Divhunt client, not your website client)
$dh.language() returns language data
