Unlimited Pagination

[ldiebold]

What are your thoughts on having a way to specify "unlimited pagination" for routes?

My use case, is that I usually want the default 15 page limit. Yet sometimes, I want all of the records (when I know the response will be a small amount of data).

To do this, I usually say limit: 99999 or something like that, but it feels weird to do it this way!

Maybe we could have a function on the controller that allows unlimited data in the response, and in that case, we can use -1?

    public function allowUnlimited(): boolean {
        return true;
    }

Then the following would return all records:

GET: /metrics
payload: { limit: -1 }
