The default page control presented by DataTables (forward and backward buttons with up to 7 page numbers in-between) is fine for most situations, but there are cases where you may wish to customise the options presented to the end user. This is done through DataTables’ extensible pagination mechanism, the pagingType option.

Options:

• numbers - Page number buttons only
• simple - 'Previous' and 'Next' buttons only
• simple_numbers - 'Previous' and 'Next' buttons, plus page numbers
• full - 'First', 'Previous', 'Next' and 'Last' buttons
• full_numbers - 'First', 'Previous', 'Next' and 'Last' buttons, plus page numbers
• first_last_numbers - 'First' and 'Last' buttons, plus page numbers

Your app component template file like this

<table #dataTable class="display" style="width:100%">

    <th>Position</th>
    <th>Office</th>

</table>

the #dataTable is the template reference variable to find the datatable element.

#dataTable

and you app component class file like this

import {Component, ViewChild, OnInit} from '@angular/core';
declare var $;

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit{
  @ViewChild('dataTable') table;
  dataTable: any;
  dtOptions: any;
constructor(){
  }

  ngOnInit(): void {
     this.dtOptions = {"columnDefs": [{ 
   "pagingType": "full_numbers"
};    
     this.dataTable = $(this.table.nativeElement);
     this.dataTable.DataTable(this.dtOptions);
  }
}

pagingType option handle the pagination alternative . here i am using full_numbers option and the result have first, last, previous, next buttons with page numbers.
