Laravel Pagination with eloquent Queries - laravel-4

Question

I am trying to paginate my template which has a table on it.
This is my function in the controller which has the eloquent queries.
public function orderbydate()
{
$order =DB::table('sales_flat_order_items as s')
->leftJoin('sales_flat_orders as w', 'w.entity_id','=','s.order_id')
->select(array(DB::Raw('sum(s.amount_refunded) as amount_refunded'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.row_total) as row_total'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.discount_amount) as discount_amount'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.tax_amount) as tax_amount'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.qty_ordered) as qty_ordered'),
DB::Raw('sum(w.subtotal) as subtotal'),
DB::Raw('sum(w.total_invoiced) as total_invoiced'),
DB::Raw('sum(w.shipping_amount) as shipping_amount')))
->where('qty_canceled','=','0')
->where('status','!=','canceled')
->get();
$orderbydate = DB::table('sales_flat_order_items as s')
->leftJoin('sales_flat_orders as w', 'w.entity_id','=','s.order_id')
->select(array(DB::Raw('sum(s.amount_refunded) as amount_refunded'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.row_total) as row_total'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.discount_amount) as discount_amount'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.tax_amount) as tax_amount'),
DB::Raw('sum(s.qty_ordered) as qty_ordered'),
DB::Raw('sum(w.subtotal) as subtotal'),
DB::Raw('DATE(w.created_at) days'),
DB::Raw('sum(w.total_invoiced) as total_invoiced'),
DB::Raw('sum(w.shipping_amount) as shipping_amount')))
->where('qty_canceled','=','0')
->where('status','!=','canceled')
->groupBy('days')
->orderBy('s.created_at')
->get();
return View::make('sales_flat_orders.orderbydate', compact('order','orderbydate'), ['orderbydate'=>Paginate(3)]);
}
I want to use pagination in my template. So i ma doing like this.
#foreach(array_chunk($orderbydate->getCollection()->all(), 3) as $row)
<div class = "row">
#foreach($row as $s)
<article class = "col-md-4">
<tbody>
<tr class="odd gradeX">
<td>{{date("d F, Y",strtotime($s->days))}}</td>
<td>{{ round($s->qty_ordered, 2) }}</td>
<td>{{round($s->subtotal,2)}}</td>
<td>{{round($s->tax_amount,2)}}</td>
<td>{{round($s->discount_amount,2)}}</td>
<td>{{round($s->row_total,2)}}</td>
<td>{{round($s->amount_refunded,2)}}</td>
<td>{{round($s->total_invoiced,2)}}</td>
<td>{{round($s->shipping_amount,2)}}</td>
</tr>
</article>
#endforeach
#endforeach
But thins does not work. Where am i going wrong?
Thanks in advance

If you want to use pagination instead of get method you need to use paginate method.
For example the working pagination should work like this:
Paginator::setCurrentPage($page);
Paginator::setBaseUrl($baseUrl);
Paginator::setPageName('page');
$users = User::paginate(15);
now in Blade template you can display users in foreach loop and add pagination links:
#foreach ($users as $user)
{{{ $user->name }}}
#endforeach
{{ $users->links() }}
You should definitely look also at Pagination documentation
