algoliasearch hitsPerPage doesn't seems to work properly

[Natim]

It seems to always use a bigger value than expected.

Seems related to https://github.com/algolia/algoliasearch-client-python/blob/master/algoliasearch/index.py#L258

Can you add more details about what you are doing and what's not working. Are you using the delete _by_query method?

[Natim]

I am using the index.search method and I wanted to add some configurable pagination mecanism but without success.

Sorry I meant: https://github.com/algolia/algoliasearch-client-python/blob/master/algoliasearch/index.py#L487

[julienbourdeau]

The link point to search_disjunctive_faceting, are you using it?

You should be able to do it with

index.search('some query', {
    'page': 2,
    'hitsPerPage': 42
})

@julienbourdeau You are right both links are not related to the search method. Sorry about the noise (must have been a bit tired).

Then I am not quite sure why, I will investigate thanks.
