I have JavaScript like that:

items.forEach(function (item, index, arr) {
                console.log(item.price);
                var message = 'BitSkins Price: $' + item.bprice + '';
                if (item.price != null) {
                    if (item.bprice == '') {
                        message = 'Item never sold on BitSkins!';
                    }
                    if (item.name != 'Operation Phoenix Case Key' && item.name != 'CS:GO Case Key' && item.name != 'Winter Offensive Case Key' && item.name != 'Revolver Case Key' && item.name != 'Operation Vanguard Case Key' && item.name != 'Operation Wildfire Case Key' && item.name != 'Shadow Case Key' && item.name != 'Operation Breakout Case Key' && item.name != 'Chroma Case Key' && item.name != 'Huntsman Case Key' && item.name != 'Falchion Case Key' && item.name != 'Chroma 2 Case Key') {
                        $("#inventory").html($("#inventory").html() + "<li class='col 2' style='padding:8px;font-weight:bold;font-size:16px'><div class='card item-card waves-effect waves-light' style='margin:0%;min-height:295px;width:245.438px;border-radius: 15px;' id='" + item.id + "'><div class='iteam' style='text-decoration: underline;text-align: left'>" + item.name + "</div><div class='condition' style='text-align: left;text-size:13px'>" + item.condition + "</div><div class='center-align' style='padding:6%'><img title=\"" + item.originalname + "\" draggable='false' src='/" + item.iconurl + "/200fx200'><div class 'floatvalue'>Float: 0.11503319442272186<div class='bitskinsp' style='font-weight: normal;font-size:12px'>" + message + "</div><div class='buyer-price center-align'>$" + numberWithCommas(item.price) + "</li></div></div>");
                    }
                }
            });

Which adds each item in array to the html and then shows there. items array containts JSON, which could be 1000 different items. How could I add infinite scroll on that JavaScript? Example: It will show first 50 items, then if you scroll another 50.. Also, sort them by the price (I got it in code already).

You can easily do it like this:

var perPage = 50;

function paginate(items, page) {
  var start = perPage * page;
  return items.slice(start, start + perPage);
}

function renderItems(pageItems) {
  pageItems.forEach(function (item, index, arr) {
    var message = 'BitSkins Price: $' + item.bprice + '';
    if (item.price != null) {
      if (item.bprice == '') {
        message = 'Item never sold on BitSkins!';
      }
      if (item.name != 'Operation Phoenix Case Key' && item.name != 'CS:GO Case Key' && item.name != 'Winter Offensive Case Key' && item.name != 'Revolver Case Key' && item.name != 'Operation Vanguard Case Key' && item.name != 'Operation Wildfire Case Key' && item.name != 'Shadow Case Key' && item.name != 'Operation Breakout Case Key' && item.name != 'Chroma Case Key' && item.name != 'Huntsman Case Key' && item.name != 'Falchion Case Key' && item.name != 'Chroma 2 Case Key') {
        $("#inventory").append("<li class='col 2' style='padding:8px;font-weight:bold;font-size:16px'><div class='card item-card waves-effect waves-light' style='margin:0%;min-height:295px;width:245.438px;border-radius: 15px;' id='" + item.id + "'><div class='iteam' style='text-decoration: underline;text-align: left'>" + item.name + "</div><div class='condition' style='text-align: left;text-size:13px'>" + item.condition + "</div><div class='center-align' style='padding:6%'><img title=\"" + item.originalname + "\" draggable='false' src='https://steammunity-a.akamaihd/economy/image/" + item.iconurl + "/200fx200'><div class 'floatvalue'>Float: 0.11503319442272186<div class='bitskinsp' style='font-weight: normal;font-size:12px'>" + message + "</div><div class='buyer-price center-align'>$" + numberWithCommas(item.price) + "</li></div></div>");
      }
    }
  });
}

$(document).ready(function() {
  var win = $(window);
  var page = 0;
  renderItems(paginate(items, page));

  // Each time the user scrolls
  win.scroll(function() {
    // End of the document reached?
    if ($(document).height() - win.height() == win.scrollTop()) {
      page++;
      renderItems(paginate(items, page));
    }
  });
});

Or using jQuery endlessScroll plugin

$(document).ready(function() {
  $(window).endlessScroll({
    inflowPixels: 300,
    callback: function() {
      //append new items to your list
    }
  });
});

How about writing a small function that checks scroll position and fires a ajax call to get more data or just get the next slot of data from your json object and bind it to HTML. something as below:

$(window).scroll(function() {
    if($(window).scrollTop() == $(document).height() - $(window).height()) {
           // ajax call or some other logic to show data here
    }
});

Or you can use one of the so many plugins, I am using Waypoint for one of the same thing.

Try using additional variables like current page (if you have 1000 items and you show 50 in each, then you'll have a max of 20 pages to show), number of items on a page, start index and end index.

Assume:

var currPage = 0; //(First page)

var itemsInPage = 50; //NUMBER OF ITEMS IN A PAGE

Then for every scroll, calculate the startItem index and endItem index.

startItem = currPage * itemsInPage;//FOR FIRST PAGE, THIS IS 0

endItem = startItem + itemsInPage; //AND THIS IS 50

In the forEach loop, check if( index >= startItem && index < endItem ) and display only those items.

You will have to increment the currPage after every scroll and at the beginning of the forEach loop, add:

if( currPage > Math.ceil( items.length/itemsInPage ) ) currPage = 1;

(Round up using ceil because if length of 'items' is not perfectly divisible by 'itemsinpage', then they add up as an additional page)

If you can use a third party take a look here Infinite ajax scroll.

Or as explain in similar asked question use JQuery Waypoint plugin
