Pagination::make() method doesn't exist in Pagination class anymore in Laravel 5.

Is there a workaround to make manual pagination work in Laravel 5?

You need to add use:

use IlluminatePaginationLengthAwarePaginator as Paginator;

and now you can use:

 $paginator = new Paginator($items, $count, $limit, $page, [
 'path' => $this->request->url(),
 'query' => $this->request->query(),
 ]);

to get data in the same format as paginating on model object;

You can create manual pagination like this

$data = DB::table('post')->skip(0)->take(20)->get();

Pretty way to instance this class

 use IlluminatePaginationLengthAwarePaginator as Paginator;
 //...
 $paginator = new Paginator($items->forPage($page, $limit), $count, $limit, $page, [
 'path' => Paginator::resolveCurrentPath()
 ]);

Note items must be a Collection Object.

Try below code for manual pagination

<?php

namespace AppHttpControllers;

use IlluminatePaginationLengthAwarePaginator as Paginator;
// use IlluminatePaginationPaginator;
use IlluminateHttpRequest;
use AppProduct;
class MyController extends Controller

 public function index(Request $request)
 $items = Product::all();

 $filter_products = ; // Manual filter or your array for pagination

 foreach($items as $item)
 if($item['id']>40 && $item['id']<50)
 array_push($filter_products, $item);
 
 

 $count = count($filter_products); // total product for pagination
 $page = $request->page; // current page for pagination

 // manually slice array of product to display on page
 $perPage = 5;
 $offset = ($page-1) * $perPage;
 $products = array_slice($filter_products, $offset, $perPage);

 // your pagination 
 $products = new Paginator($products, $count, $perPage, $page, ['path' => $request->url(),'query' => $request->query(),]);
 // use $products->appends($_GET)->links() to dispaly your pagination
 return view('index',['products' => $products]);
 

Another way of using pagination would be like this:

public function index()

 $posts = DB::table('posts')->paginate(15);
