Express Pagination Middleware

express-paginate is a Node.js middleware and view helper library designed for pagination within Express applications. It provides utilities to handle `req.skip` (aliased as `req.offset`), `req.query.limit`, and `req.query.page` automatically, simplifying the process of fetching paginated results from a database and generating pagination links. The current stable version is 1.0.2, released in 2016. The package has seen no significant updates or active development since then, indicating an effectively abandoned status. It differentiates itself by providing both server-side request parsing for pagination parameters and a view helper function (`paginate.href`) for rendering pagination controls in templates, integrating directly into the Express `req` and `res.locals` objects.
