Enable DataTables pagination dynamically

Question

I am facing a problem where my columns don't show the proper values, apart from for the rows that are loaded by default(10). Is there any way in Datatable to disable pagination ie load all rows at once and then immediately re-enable pagination. I need it as the number of rows are too many.

This is how I am initializing the Data table:

$('#rTable').DataTable({
    paging: false
});

After it is initialized, I want to enable paging in rTable. Any way to do this?

You can try setting an All option in the length menu or set paging as false (from 1.10+).

Eg.

$('#example').dataTable({
    aLengthMenu: [
      [25, 50, 100, 200, -1],
      [25, 50, 100, 200, "All"]
    ],
    iDisplayLength: -1
});

Or

$('#example').dataTable({
    paging: false
});
