How to use .limit() inside preload with pagination?

[CodeArtisT75]

Hello guys.

How can I load limited relations during preload with paginating?

example code:

const posts = Post.preload('tags', tagBuilder => {
  tagBuilder.limit(2);
}).paginate(page, perPage);

in the example, I want to load 2 tags for each post but it only returns the first 2 tags in all posts.

Use the groupLimit method. https://docs.adonisjs.com/reference/orm/relations/has-many-through#grouplimit
