title: Angular Material 2 table server-side pagination
body: <p>I am trying to Achieve Angular Material 2, MatPaginator server side paging. How can I achieve that?</p>
  
  <p>Below is the code example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  &lt;div class="example-container mat-elevation-z8"&gt;
    &lt;mat-table #table [dataSource]="dataSource"&gt;
  
      &lt;!-- Position Column --&gt;
      &lt;ng-container matColumnDef="position"&gt;
        &lt;mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef&gt; No. &lt;/mat-header-cell&gt;
        &lt;mat-cell *matCellDef="let element"&gt; {{element.position}} &lt;/mat-cell&gt;
      &lt;/ng-container&gt;
  
      &lt;!-- Name Column --&gt;
      &lt;ng-container matColumnDef="name"&gt;
        &lt;mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef&gt; Name &lt;/mat-header-cell&gt;
        &lt;mat-cell *matCellDef="let element"&gt; {{element.name}} &lt;/mat-cell&gt;
      &lt;/ng-container&gt;
  
      &lt;!-- Weight Column --&gt;
      &lt;ng-container matColumnDef="weight"&gt;
        &lt;mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef&gt; Weight &lt;/mat-header-cell&gt;
        &lt;mat-cell *matCellDef="let element"&gt; {{element.weight}} &lt;/mat-cell&gt;
      &lt;/ng-container&gt;
  
      &lt;!-- Symbol Column --&gt;
      &lt;ng-container matColumnDef="symbol"&gt;
        &lt;mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef&gt; Symbol &lt;/mat-header-cell&gt;
        &lt;mat-cell *matCellDef="let element"&gt; {{element.symbol}} &lt;/mat-cell&gt;
      &lt;/ng-container&gt;
  
      &lt;mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef="displayedColumns"&gt;&lt;/mat-header-row&gt;
      &lt;mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: displayedColumns;"&gt;&lt;/mat-row&gt;
    &lt;/mat-table&gt;
  
    &lt;mat-paginator #paginator
                   [pageSize]="10"
                   [pageSizeOptions]="[5, 10, 20]"&gt;
    &lt;/mat-paginator&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Pagination Component:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import {Component, ViewChild} from '@angular/core';
  import {MatPaginator, MatTableDataSource} from '@angular/material';
  
  /**
   * @title Table with pagination
   */
  @Component({
    selector: 'table-pagination-example',
    styleUrls: ['table-pagination-example.css'],
    templateUrl: 'table-pagination-example.html',
  })
  export class TablePaginationExample {
    displayedColumns = ['position', 'name', 'weight', 'symbol'];
    dataSource = new MatTableDataSource&lt;Element&gt;(ELEMENT_DATA);
  
    @ViewChild(MatPaginator) paginator: MatPaginator;
  
    /**
     * Set the paginator after the view init since this component will
     * be able to query its view for the initialized paginator.
     */
    ngAfterViewInit() {
      this.dataSource.paginator = this.paginator;
    }
  }
  
  export interface Element {
    name: string;
    position: number;
    weight: number;
    symbol: string;
  }
  
  const ELEMENT_DATA: Element[] = [
    {position: 1, name: 'Hydrogen', weight: 1.0079, symbol: 'H'},
    {position: 2, name: 'Helium', weight: 4.0026, symbol: 'He'},
    {position: 3, name: 'Lithium', weight: 6.941, symbol: 'Li'},
    {position: 4, name: 'Beryllium', weight: 9.0122, symbol: 'Be'},
    {position: 5, name: 'Boron', weight: 10.811, symbol: 'B'},
    {position: 6, name: 'Carbon', weight: 12.0107, symbol: 'C'},
    {position: 7, name: 'Nitrogen', weight: 14.0067, symbol: 'N'},
    {position: 8, name: 'Oxygen', weight: 15.9994, symbol: 'O'},
    {position: 9, name: 'Fluorine', weight: 18.9984, symbol: 'F'},
    {position: 10, name: 'Neon', weight: 20.1797, symbol: 'Ne'},
    {position: 11, name: 'Sodium', weight: 22.9897, symbol: 'Na'},
    {position: 12, name: 'Magnesium', weight: 24.305, symbol: 'Mg'},
    {position: 13, name: 'Aluminum', weight: 26.9815, symbol: 'Al'},
    {position: 14, name: 'Silicon', weight: 28.0855, symbol: 'Si'},
    {position: 15, name: 'Phosphorus', weight: 30.9738, symbol: 'P'},
    {position: 16, name: 'Sulfur', weight: 32.065, symbol: 'S'},
    {position: 17, name: 'Chlorine', weight: 35.453, symbol: 'Cl'},
    {position: 18, name: 'Argon', weight: 39.948, symbol: 'Ar'},
    {position: 19, name: 'Potassium', weight: 39.0983, symbol: 'K'},
    {position: 20, name: 'Calcium', weight: 40.078, symbol: 'Ca'},
  ];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I achieve server side pagination, which would trigger on change event of next page click or page size changes to get next set of records.</p>
