How to use pagination in BootstrapVue - vue.js

Question

I have created a b-table that stores all the data from the API that has been hit from Swagger UI, but since the data has a lot of characters in string, My questions are how to make the data in each row be hovered on click to show the real data from API that hasn't been truncated? I've tried using v-b-tooltip but it seems doesn't work. If I may, I also wanted to know more about how to make the b-pagination works to load another data as I navigate page further.
Here's my current code:
<template>
<base-header>
<template>
<b-card body>
<b-card-header class="border-0">
<h3 class="mb-0">Stock List</h3>
</b-card-header>
<template>
<div class="text-center">
<b-table responsive dark striped hover:true :items="items" :fields="fields">
<template #cell()="data">
<span v-b-tooltip.hover :title="data.value">
{{ data.value }}
</span>
</template>
</b-table>
</div>
</template>
<div class="overflow-auto">
<b-card-footer class="py-4 d-flex justify-content-end">
<b-pagination
v-model="currentPage"
:total-rows="rows"
:per-page="perPage"
aria-controls="my-table"
></b-pagination>
</b-card-footer>
</div>
</b-card>
</template>
</base-header>
</template>
and then here's the script
<script>
// eslint-disable-next-line no-unused-vars
import { getAllProvinces } from '~/api/delivery'
export default {
// components: {
// },
data() {
return {
perPage: 10,
currentPage: 1,
allStock: 0,
text: '',
rows: 100,
// ubah rows dan perPage biar paginationnya ada value
items: [],
fields: [
{
key: 'id',
sortable: true,
label: 'ID',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'requestId',
sortable: true,
label: 'Request ID',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'storeCode',
sortable: true,
label: 'Store Code',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'branchCode',
sortable: true,
label: 'Branch Code',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'b2bId',
sortable: true,
label: 'B2B ID',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'request',
sortable: true,
label: 'Request',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'response',
sortable: true,
label: 'Response',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'createDate',
sortable: true,
label: 'Create Date',
class: 'truncate',
},
{
key: 'errorClassification',
sortable: true,
label: 'Error Classification',
class: 'truncate',
},
],
}
},
mounted() {
this.getAllStock()
},
methods: {
getAllStock() {
this.$axios
.get(
'API Link'
)
.then((res) => {
// eslint-disable-next-line no-console
console.log(res.data)
this.items = res.data.stocks
this.allStock = res.data
// eslint-disable-next-line no-console
// console.log('cek res stock:', JSON.stringify(res.data))
})
},
computed: {
rows() {
return this.items.length
},
},
},
}
</script>
<style>
.truncate {
max-width: 200px;
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
</style>

The documentation is pretty self-explanatory: https://bootstrap-vue.org/docs/components/pagination
But I added several comments on the code below (the template is therefore invalid!)
<template>
<div class="overflow-auto">
<b-pagination
v-model="currentPage" // this is the most important, bind the currentPage state to the pagination component, two-way data binding
:total-rows="rows" // display how much total data there is
:per-page="perPage" // this one will tell how much data per page you want to display
aria-controls="my-table" // this is for a11y
></b-pagination>
<p class="mt-3">Current Page: {{ currentPage }}</p>
<b-table
id="my-table"
:items="items" // where to look for the data
:per-page="perPage"
:current-page="currentPage" // re-use the current value of the pagination component
small
></b-table>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
perPage: 3,
currentPage: 1,
items: [ // your items, that you may replace with a new array if fetching an API in between each pagination page change
{ id: 1, first_name: 'Fred', last_name: 'Flintstone' },
{ id: 2, first_name: 'Wilma', last_name: 'Flintstone' },
{ id: 3, first_name: 'Barney', last_name: 'Rubble' },
{ id: 4, first_name: 'Betty', last_name: 'Rubble' },
{ id: 5, first_name: 'Pebbles', last_name: 'Flintstone' },
{ id: 6, first_name: 'Bamm Bamm', last_name: 'Rubble' },
{ id: 7, first_name: 'The Great', last_name: 'Gazzoo' },
{ id: 8, first_name: 'Rockhead', last_name: 'Slate' },
{ id: 9, first_name: 'Pearl', last_name: 'Slaghoople' }
]
}
},
computed: {
rows() {
return this.items.length
}
}
}
</script>
Of course, depending of the amount of data, you may want to watch for the currentPage value and make a new API call, fetching the next elements.
This totally depends on the API implementation but it's essentially passing 2 rather than 1 in URL's query params or somewhere into the headers.
As you can see in Github's API here: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/repos#list-repositories-for-the-authenticated-user--parameters
Theirs is awaiting for a page and per_page params, hence the values of our VueJS state that we will send a new API call with.
