Possible to paginate by column value?

chrisindfw

I have a large set of data that I would like to paginate by a column value and not by the number of records. I tried searching but was not able to find anything.

Data:
100, text, text, text
100, text, text, text
100, text, text, text
200, text, text, text
300, text, text, text
300, text, text, text
etc.

In this example, there would be three paginate pages. The first one would have 3 records, second1, and third 2 records.

The goal is to prevent multiple tables from being drawn at a time vs one table with multiple pages. I do have some workarounds in my head but I was wondering if there was anything already built-in that I may not have found yet.

Thank you for your time!

Nothing built-in for this, but you could do something with column filters, i.e. column().search() to search for those leading numbers, triggered by Buttons.
