CODE IN THE VIEW

SECTION REPEATER: where I refer to the pagination-id 
<tr dir-paginate="task in paginated = (filteredCmpClient = (taskLevelList | filter: searchCmpUser | filter: searchALL | orderBy:propertyName:reverse) | itemsPerPage: pageSize.value.id)" current-page="currentPage" pagination-id="taskLevel"> 

...<< more code here using the rows generated by the repeater >> ....

<dir-pagination-controls boundary-links="true" on-page-change="pageChangeHandler(newPageNumber)" template-url="./views/general/dirPagination.tpl.html" pagination-id="taskLevel"></dir-pagination-controls>
